State Legislature
NOW Rex Rolfing wants to hear from you, that is if you have a check
So he sends out a contribution letter and doesn’t even put his phone number on it? He has learned absolutely nothing his 8 years on the city council. There was nothing ‘grassroots’ about Rolfing’s election to the council. I was surprised he knew what the word ‘lean’ even means. With the mayor’s help and the rubberstamp council Rolfing never backed down from spending your money. Racking up over $200 million in bond debt (He never voted against any controversial projects like the DT Parking Ramp and Administration building) and going along with the over 50 increases in taxes and fees. If you liked Rolfing on the council, you’ll love him in Pierre.
Rex, give it up already
Well if you think the State Legislature gets nothing accomplished now, elect Rolfing for more do nothingness. The sad part is he would not have been able to run in my District if it wasn’t for Gerrymandering of Lincoln County.
ZERO accountability by GOP Leadership in Pierre
We saw yesterday how the GOP protects their own from scandals when the AG’s office sent out a ‘Nothing Burger’ press release about Loetscher’s hacking investigation.
This letter reminded me of the same ‘circling of wagons’ around one of their own;
Recently, Jenna Netherton stepped down from District 10 Senate because she relocated to Texas.
Residents of District 10 have been misled by this. Netherton has not lived in district or even the state for the past year. How can a state senator represent a district if they don’t even live in it or the state they represent?
Well, it really hasn’t been proven that she was living in Texas. However, it is highly suspect. When brought to the attention of Republican leadership by one of it’s legislative members during session there was NO investigation and NO conclusion. Nothing. Which tells me it was just a cover-up further proven when Jenna bolts her position to go work for the Koch brothers before her term is up.
Pierre is nothing but a basket of self-serving snakes.
Jenna Netherton (Haggar) ‘NOW’ decides to move out-of-state
Like we couldn’t see this coming a mile away;
She’s not seeking re-election and resigning before finishing out her term so she can move out-of-state with her husband.
Surprise, Surprise, Surprise. Jenna conveniently finishes her legislative term THAN decides to move out-of-state. She also sets up the ‘fake incumbent’ scenario for the Governor to appoint someone to finish out a very short term.
There was already speculation that she has already living out-of-state with her husband before the session started. When this blog and others brought it up, there was radio silence from Jenna and the Legislature on the issue.
And some in the State Legislature wonder why the citizens are so Hell bent on more ethic rules for our legislators. Hmmm.
