If anyone thought the liberals in the Illinois General Assembly would be reasonable and nice in their new and stronger majority, here's a taste of what our state lawmakers face this week:
- Expanding human embryo experimentation
- Lowering compulsory school attendance age
- Requiring HPV vaccine for 11 year olds
- Establishing gay marriage in Illinois
- UPDATE: Gutting parental notification before abortion before it is enacted (With the help of pro-abort GOP state reps Mulligan, Coulson, Lindner and Beaubien)
- Setting up mental health screenings for expectant mothers (Why is Republican conservative Sen. Matt Murphy co-sponsoring this intrusive bill?)
- Statewide ban on smokers (Why are Republican senators Radogno, Sieben and Cronin on this big government proposal?)
- Doubling the number of gambling facilities throughout the state
- UPDATE: Hearing testimony on utility rate hikes to send electric bills skyrocketing
and more . . .
