Things are going in the right direction. After all the liberal policies the last couple years (Obamacare and gay marriage to name a few), it is so nice to see some goodness happening.

This bill just barely squeaked by in the Louisiana House -- 85 - 6 ( /sarcasm off ).

The Louisiana Senate tends to be more conservative. Then it is off to Bobby Jindal.

Texas has fought all the court battles, so this should breeze into law.
