Comments from Facebook referring to some folks:

From the inbox: HB1052 made it through Senate State Affairs 7-2. Sen Beal must be making mad money on the deal and Sen Mehlhaff is an absolute embarrassment. Someone get that guy something to control his shaking.
Sen Deibert voted yes after a weekend pressure campaign by citizens, but he made sure to let them all know his contempt for them. That guy has to go and hopefully Lawrence County can get someone lined up. He literally called you all “harassers.” His hatred of the people was on full display with his comments today.
HB1052 heading to the Senate floor. Congrats to THE PEOPLE!
