We were getting these cards in the mail with peoples names and addresses supporting the bill. It was a tremendous grass roots effort." Sorry, Representative Wagner, there was NOTHING grassroot about this. it was a highly financed and well organized effort designed by people in new York and California. The email sent out told their people to not mention their affiliation, so it would look like a grass roots efforst.
It is such a shame that so many Delaware Representatives fell for this trick.

"Massachusetts passed a similar law," says Wagner. (Pedestrians) got so tired of people coming out from bars onto the street to smoke, that the legislators repealed it. We dont know all the ramifications of this law as we move forward. Given time, the marketplace is going to take care of it." Rep. Wagner, you should have thought of letting the market place take care of it to begin with.
I also don't think it was the entire state of Taxachusetts, I think it was nly select municipalities, I could be wrong though.
