[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate that Charles Allen is trying to rush this through before the House flips to the Republicans. The first vote is on Friday afternoon.

I also feel like the public has zero idea of what is actually in this bill.  There is no summary.  The hearings have not been well publicized.

Very, very shady.  [/quote]

Three hearings were held last fall with ample public notice as required by statute. Those hearings are linked on the FAQ page above. Just because you haven't been aware of the changes, doesn't mean there hasn't been ample vetting and volumes of information available on the CCRC website.

One last thing . . . for all the folks blaming Allen, this bill comes out of recommendations put forth by the CCRC . . . which put in 4+ years of work into this overhaul. You can read all about it in the links above. You may disagree with the substance, but there is nothing shady about the process.[/quote]
