So the House is spending their days of preventing teens from tanning...... isn't it a parents job to determine whether they do or not based on risks.  What a waste of time and money....

"That's the problem with lawmakers, they suddenly feel empowered to delve into issues they should not be involved in"

At all levels,   Like the US Congress investigating breeding or drug use in horse racing, or steroid use in baseball, or any number of other trivial issues (with respect to what they SHOULD be addressing).  What a ridiculous waste of OUR time and money.

@Thor, I  hope you're sitting down when I tell you that I agree  with your entire post that begins: "My biggest concern is that only "several legislators" mentioned to Carolyn, "that the process makes no sense, because the bills aren't related to one another". What were all the others doing? This might explain why we are in the condition we are in..."

Perhaps the world IS ending in December? Again, we will save on the Christmas cards.
