Just the way the unions fo it.
No one polls the rank and file; the union leadership does what they want to do. That’s why you see unions supporting left wing issues when the hard hats are conservative.

Met? If you're in that demographic, we probably know each other somewhat well (but maybe not).

This thread inspired me to formally request my 3 dollar refund. Hopefully enough will do the same to at least annoy those in charge, and maybe handle things differently moving forward.

Lol, does the LSBA normally cut their budget in any area by 30%? Cuz I'm thinking they don't. I'd be interested in seeing what the actual is after June 30.

We scared them. They have no presence at this session and apologized to Mike Johnson for the embarrassment they sent to the hearings.
