Senator Rand is mistaken. The bill DOES meet the criteria to be heard in Senate. The Legislature put out a memo last September that states that bills and recommendations from Select Committees can be acted upon in the Short Session. Also, when the House Select Committee was formed, they asked the Senate to join them in the study of annexation law abuse and the Senate said No. To turn around now, a year later, after the Select Committee has spents hundreds of hours of their time and the citizens hundreds of hours of their time in expressing the absolute corruption being legalized by the current law, and ask to make their own study is absolutely undefendable!
