Why is this important?
A BILL TO STOP St. George, Louisiana IN HOUSE COMMITTEE THURSDAY (APRIL 10th) AFTERNOON.
HB 768 by Rep. Ed Price will be heard in the House Committee on Municipal & Parochial Affairs when the House adjourns Thursday afternoon. The bill would limit incorporation petition drives to 180 days and put other restrictions on incorporation. The St. George drive has already exceeded that time limit. Apparently, the bill would apply to petition drives in progress. This is a liberal committee with 11 Democrats and 5 Republicans, an anomaly in the Louisiana House, which is majority Republican. The public is invited to appear and testify. The committee will meet in Room 6.
