DFL: Above The Rules
Can you imagine if a Republican legislator did this?
Video of registered gun-grabber lobbyist Heather Martens introducing a bill for “Representative” Alice Hausman last week at the Capitol.
The DFL – including committee chair Michael Paymar, the night of the hearings – claim that lobbyists speak to the committee all the time.
But this isn’t just “speaking to the committee”. This is introducing a bill for consideration by our elected representatives.
Hausman claimed that she had other committee assignments – but the committee she chairs didn’t meet on Wednesday night.
Are the people of Minnesota – even you liberals – going to tolerate having your representation handed over to registered lobbyists?
