Madam Speaker, I think the country as a whole is concerned about this issue and it is incumbent upon us as legislators to put something in place. I disagree with people who say that no law is better than this law. I would tell them that no law is perfect, and no law will not be amended and no law will not be subject to changes as we learn, experience, and go forward.
I strongly encourage those who oppose it and say the will vote for nothing to do their job as legislators, put something in place and then work to make it better.
