Cullie Tarleton (D – Ashe, Watauga) filed House Bill 13 to request funds for the Horn in the West show.
Even in a good economy, there would be little chance of this bill passing. But that is not the point. In light of our current economic conditions, legislators should refuse to file bills that call for pass-through funds for goodies in their district. I think the electorate would appreciate that symbolic gesture.
