Another report on surprise legislative hearing

A small piece of my testimony during yesterday's hearing on SB 152, which would bar public agencies from instituting domestic partner benefits programs, was quoted in Deborah Yetter's Louisville Courier-Journal story yesterday.

It is also interesting to note that the Legislative Research Commission has yet to post a streaming video of House Health and Welfare Committee Chairman Tom Burch's attempt to ambush supporters of SB 152. There is no online video available for the surprise nighttime meeting of his committee, while other meetings are posted.

Hmmm.

You are welcome to post at this blog. You are asked, however, to refrain from the following:

1. Name-calling;
2. Questioning the motives or integrity of people you have never met just because you disagree with them;
3. Using obscenities or other expressions not appropriate or necessary to civilized discussion;
4. Taking disagreement personally;
5. Demeaning or insulting remarks.

The host will attempt to abide by the same rules and only asks that you not provide him with the temptation to do so in return by violating them.

Failure to comply with these rules can result (depending solely on the arbitrary and inscrutable will of the host) in the deletion of offending posts and suspension of posting privileges. Such measures are more likely if you post anonymously.
