Poor Rep Campfield

March 23, 2007

I just noticed this.  Check it out on youtube.  This is Rep Campfield presenting three bills before a House Committee:

The three bills discussed were:

One to prevent state legislators from naming buildings and roads after themselves.

One to conserve energy by preventing excessive heating of the LP parking garage.

One to introduce term limits.

Only the first measure was actually discussed by the committee.  I’m not the biggest fan of Campfield (he was one of the house members who voted against the Gore resolution earlier this week), but this is a shameful way to treat a fellow legislator.  Notice the “legal” motion used to kill his first bill.

EDIT: I’m told the parking garage isn’t actually heated, so thats why they shot down that resolution.  ^_^

EDIT2: If Campfield really want to save energy here, they should cut down on air conditioning use in the building during the weekends.  On saturday I stopped by to use the wireless in LP12.  The air conditioning was running full tilt and I was downright cold.
