College and Career Counseling Bill - Progresses

Fri. Jan 27 - I was the only member of the public to testify against HB65. It passed the House Education committee with only the dissenting votes of Rep Sumsion and Rep Newbold. It may be that some committee members voted for it because they expect it to fail to win funding in the appropriations process. Without an appropriation, the bill is of no effect. My argument was that America's greatness comes from local creativity and meeting needs at the local level.....Not from implementing central planning which is dictated by the largest bureaucracy possible. This is an example of the latter.
