January 14, 2006 A townhall meeting was hosted by State Senator Chip Rogers on Saturday, 14 January 2006 at the Mountainview Public Library from 9:00 to 10:30 AM. He was joined by State Representative Bobby Franklin and State Senator Judson Hill. The audience included about 30 individual including Cobb County School Board member Johnny Johnson.
Anumber of issues were discussed including the following:
1. Voter Id
2. Senate Resolution 652 dealing with Eminent Domain
3. Term limits for the School Board, and reducing term from 4 year to 2 years.
4. Illegal Immigration Reform.
5. Fixing a "Loophole" in the Hope Scholarship.
6. Passing a Sexual Predator Bill which would be the toughest in the country.
The legislation coming up in the House and Senate this year is going to be very controversial despite this being an election year and much of the MSM (Main Stream Media) predicting that only softball legislation would be addressed. Part of the reason for this I feel is the activity at the grassroots level demanding some action be taken and representatives be held accountable.

Next week is goung to be verry busy with both a Cobb GOP breakfast and a Christian Coalition rally on Saturday January 21st.
Get Active!
