representation exactly equal to that of every other
citizen.
THE CHAIRMAN: Delegate Gilchrist, you have four
minutes you can allocate.
DELEGATE GILCHRIST: I allocate two minutes
to Delegate Bushong.
THE CHAIRMAN: Delegate Bushong.
DELEGATE BUSHONG: Mr. Chairman, we feel that
this amendment is a shock absorber. It will give the people
who are losing their representation some time to get over it.
We think that they should be treated with some
by this Convention. The Legislature at any time it sees
fit hereafter can change this under this amendment. But
it cannot put it up.
1 want to say to this Convention that we have
heard the 1966 legislature praised and praised on the
floor of this convention. They had 142. The only thing
we are asking is to please don't shock these little counties
too fast and too often.
THE CHAIRMAN: Delegate Gallagher, you have
three minutes you can allocate. |
