This past week was a media frenzy. I’m sure between the statewide newspapers and appearances on WGME 13 and a live segment on WCSH 6’s Newscenter, you've probably heard about my bill that deals with speed limits. Out of the 13 bills I submitted, this is the one bill that is the most simplistic and what I thought to be a no-brainer structural change. This was of course until I realized on the day of my public hearing how much the media has become so sensationalized for the simple sound bite and juicy headline.

There has been a lot of talk in the news about guns, the governor and a veto buffet, but there is something we have yet to discuss; something that many elected us to do last November – create economic growth.
