<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

Sunshine Legislation I posted last week<\/a>:
\n“Stop Letting Government Define Freedom Act”

“Further Erase Home Rule Act”
\n“Reveal Economic Development Act”
\n“Give the Legislature More Reasons to Control Act”
\n“Give Bryant Another Bill That Will Never Pass Act”<\/p>\n

others:
