Vermont House Rejects Hearings on Cutts Resolution
Vermont House voted 153 to 81 against committing the Cutts Resolution on reapportionment to the Judiciary Committee for public hearings. Debate lasted 90 minutes before amendment discussions on keeping the U S Supreme Court as final authority in realignment. Rep. Greene urged calm review while Rep. Parsons called committing an attempted kill. If passed by both chambers and not vetoed by Gov. Hoff, the move could lead to further action, with 34 states needed for a constitutional convention. Partridge questioned legality given malapportioned legislatures and suggested a registered voter base for realignment.
