On February 06, 2011, several members of the North Carolina legislature introduced House Bill 709 (HB 709). The primary sponsors of the bill include: Dale Folwell (Forsyth County), Nelson Dollar (Wake County), Mike Hager (Cleveland / Rutherford Counties), Jim Crawford (Granville / Vance Counties). Co-sponsors include: John Faircloth (Guilford County) and Michael Wray (Northampton / Vane / Warren Counties).
According to the General Assembly, the occupations of these gentlemen include: consultant, private investor, media / public relations consultant, business owner, developer, and real estate broker / owner. A cursory reading of the bill will lead you to understand that these gentlemen have pandered to the special interest of the chamber of commerce, the insurance industry, etc. They have also forsaken the interests of their constituents for the benefit of their personal business endeavors and campaigns.
In the weeks ahead, I will be actively commenting on this assault on your rights. I will follow the status of the proposal and let you know where it is headed. However, it is up to you to take a stand against this proposal by voicing your opposition. Three groups need to be contacted: (1) the Governor, so she is aware of your opposition to the bill in the event it passes; (2) your personal representatives, which are ; (3) the sponsors of this bill should be advised of your opinion of their actions. I have listed the sponsors' information below.
