Re: catalina27-talk: Mandatory PFD usage in Maryland

[DMTierney]

Those of us in Maryland may need to organize a trip to Annapolis to speak face to face with our legislators.  The bottom line is that many  of our elected reps have become emboldened over recent months by voting against the will of the people.  A friend in the House said there is a plan to introduce a new Wal-Mart type bill requring companies with 5,000 instead of the current 10,000 employees to cough up money for health care.  So what could they do about PFD's?  They'll add mandatory floatation devices to keep the boats up, too.  And, yes they do make such a thing and I only hope the elected folks don't find out!
