The speaker of the Oklahoma House of Representatives has agreed to meet with the lobbyist for the Oklahoma ballot access bill on Monday morning. The lobbyist is a professional, and he has had great success so far, because HB 1072 has passed both houses of the legislature, but it needs to go through the conference committee, since the version of the bill in each house differs. Bill Redpath, national chair of the Libertarian Party, has made a life-saving personal contribution of $1,500 to OBAR (Oklahoma Ballot Access Reform) so that the lobbyist’s bill can be paid for May.
It’s possible, I suppose, that Bill Redpath could be wrong about something or other, but there are by gosh few people anywhere in the Freedom Movement who put their fortunes and sacred honor into the fight to the degree he does.
Bill, if you’re reading this, Thank You!
Yes indeed, this deserves an unreserved “Thanks!” Redpath has done some truly tremendous ballot access work in 2009, and his stalwart support of OBAR has made a huge difference.
