Good article Senator. I would like the minority members who have tried to stand up for the people of the state to explore all legal options.  It certainly appears unconstitutional for an elected body to vote to give away state's resources on a long term mega scale while plotting to give away the state's money to the same global corporations that are stealing the resources. The problem here is the Legislature. They could fix or repair all of this today by simply voting on a bill that repeals SB21, cuts off all tax credits, and imposes a production tax per barrel of oil. They do not do this because they are employees of the oil companies, or bought and paid for by the oilies.  I would rather have the pipeline shut down than give away our oil. And apparently we would save money.  Tell the Legislature that you will not give up your PFD so that the oil companies can be paid to drill.
