Todd and Sams accused of juggling measures for political purposes
A letter from Damon Head denounces Senator John R Todd and Representative Brack R Sams Democrats for passing a Sullivan County game bill to please their political base. Headden claims the legislators pledged to remove Sullivan county from state protection, appointing a partisan game protector and then backed a local bill at the regular session.
