Some bills deserve to die

At the end of each legislative session I would ask the late Senator Gerry Geis if there were any bills that didn’t make it through that he wished had and 99.9% of the time he would say no.

He would add, if they are good bills, they will be back, if not then having them not pass was a good thing.

The more I cover the Legislature (even after 30-plus years) the more I realize he was correct.

Case in...
