Have any of them made a statement on why they voted this way?

n.b. I'm not looking for simple "because of money/lobbying" speculation. I'm interested in the reasoning straight from the horse's mouth.

OK, so it passed the state Senate unanimously and died in the House.

The HN audience in particular might appreciate that some of the bill text revisions are dated 1969-12-31! :P

That's sickening. Every single one of these people should be primaried and removed from office.

When will EU/EEZ introduce right to repair? So much talk about freedom in EU but you can't even fix your own EU made car. All we get are stupid cookie prompts.

Just keep bringing it back infinitely.

Opposition gets tired, money doesn’t.
