Mike Frerichs Introduced An ALEC-Drafted Fracking Bill in 2012


That's right.  Mike Frerichs - the same guy who is trying to make an issue of the illuminati some organization that nobody really understands in the Treasurer's race - actually introduced an ALEC-drafted fracking bill back in 2012.  It was SB 3280.

And...he didn't just introduce it, he flacked it too.  He had this to say about it:
The sponsor of SB 3280, Senator Michael Frerichs told the Associated Press, "I think no piece of legislation makes everyone happy," but "I think we've struck a nice balance between the concerns of environmentalists and new industry."
Facts are a terrible thing to have to deal with.  Especially when you can't remember your *own* voting record.

Gotta reset the 'Days since Mike Frerichs made a blunder' counter.

Latest Data: Forgetfulness In America


Everyone recognizes that Mike Frerichs knowledge of his *own* voting record isn't his strong suit.  After all, he launched his campaign with a video that he had to take down because he claimed he voted one way when he actually voted the other way.

Then...yesterday...Mike Frerichs flailed away on his opponent - Tom Cross - about an organization named ALEC, trying to tie Tom Cross alone to this group.

But...shortly after Mike's Maize Canine Leftie sent out his breathless release, the news came out that Mike Frerichs, himself, introduced an ALEC-drafted fracking bill a few years back.  And...it was probably a TERRIBLE bill.
