Last week was another busy week in Jackson, MS. Monday marked the last day for general bills to be submitted by representatives, and 2016 is a record year for proposed legislation. There are over 1500 general bills on the House calendar, which means legislators are spending sleepless nights trying to read and decipher the legalese within these bills. It is quite honestly a ridiculous amount of legislation, and is part of the problem with our system. House members are bombarded with so many decisions to make, in an extremely short period of time, that many bad laws slip through the process.
