I have lived in this woman's gerrymandered district (about 5 miles
wide and some 30 miles+ long stretching across North and down East
side of Harris County) for almost 30 yrs and have fought to have her
replaced because of her politics and racism. She does nothing if not
for herself or her leftist party affiliates. There MUST be another
reason for this proposed law. I expect it is to register ALL ham
stations since the ARRL represents a small portion of the population.
Be very leery of anything Sheila Jackson Lee proposes. and remember,
the most innocuous law can and will, probably be extended to be used
against the public instead of for it. If Ted Poe or some other
Conservative proposed this, I would support it but I expect it would
not read the same.
