HB 259 now has three co-sponsors, Steven Doan, Josh Callaway and Felicia Raybourne. I don't know how much clout that makes collectively but it has to be growing. There is still a lot of time to add more clout to this list of co-sponsors. If the lack of clout is still a problem it has occurred to me that each of us here at ARFCOM could contact our own Representative and ask them to co-sponsor this bill and add their clout to the total clout. If that doesn't get us enough clout, we can then ask Representatives that are not associated with us in any way. This is the way bills have been passed for decades. The calculation of clout is new to me so if someone who knows the formula will keep a running tally on clout I would appreciate an update from time to time. I seems to me to be dependant on how much clout the citizens want to exert on the legislators, but I'm new to clout counting.
