The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Kevin Kiley is a GOP House member I have some respect for:

c-span.org - User clip kevin kiley is against these redistricting efforts

I'VE INTRODUCED LEGISLATION THAT WOULD SAY WE SHOULD NOT HAVE MID DECADE REDISTRICTING, IT SHOULD NOT BE DONE IN ANY STATE. AND I OPPOSED WHAT HAPPENED IN TEXAS TO GERRYMANDER THAT STATE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DECADE, AND I OPPOSED WHAT'S HAPPENED IN CALIFORNIA. I'VE OPPOSED THE EFFORTS THAT'S AFOOT IN OTHER STATES, AND I APPLAUD THE DECISION BY THE INDIANA STATE SENATE TO NOT MOVE FORWARD WITH A MID DECADE GERRYMANDER IN A FAIRLY OVERWHELMING VOTE YESTERDAY. THE FACT IS THAT GERRYMANDERING IS AN AFFRONT TO REPRESENTATIVE GOVERNMENT AND TO DEMOCRACY. AND WHAT WE'RE SEEING RIGHT NOW RUNS AGAINST THE DESIRES OF MEMBERS OF THIS BODY ON BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE AND CERTAINLY RUNS CONTRARY TO WHAT IS IN THE INTEREST OF THE COUNTRY. I HAVE CALLED UPON THE LEADERSHIP IN THE HOUSE FOR MONTHS TO BRING THIS BILL TO THE FLOOR OR TO OTHERWISE REACH AN ARMISTICE IN THIS REDISTRICTING WAR. AND I BELIEVE IT WAS A FAILURE OF LEADERSHIP, FRANKLY ON BOTH SIDES, TO ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN.

etc...
