Pretty damn stiff fines huh......I am kind of wondering though, if the public is so tired of our noise as MECALM says they are, then why is there only ONE sponsor on this bill??

I do wish that Diane Russell would stop wasting tax payer's money with her personal mission against motorcycle noise. I think if they knew this was JUST defeated a few months ago they might not appreciate her "work" too much.
I do not for one minute expect this will pass. It was just defeated, and a good defense against it already exists. Nut Mark is right. It's not safe to just assume anything.

I think what you mean Jeff, is that this issue was voted down as a recommendation by the task force on LD 1675. It is true that this same issue has been before the Transportation committee in the past with very similar language, and results. The first attempt was in 2004 during the 121st legislature 2nd session. LD 458 sponsored by Lemione ( Old Orchard Beach) was voted unanimously 'ought not to pass' on Jan. 7, 2004. The second attempt was in 2009 during the 124th legislature 1st session with LD 920 sponsored by, guess who, Russell (Portland). It too was killed in committee by a unanimous 'ought not to pass' on May 7, 2009.

Is there a generic form letter to be sending to our reps. I have sent a couple of letters, so far, and will send more. But I am concerned that I may not be using the style/form/protocol/idiom when writing to these legislators. If someone could send me the right link or paste up an example of what these letters should look like, I'd appreciate it.
Thank you!
