Senator’s letter criticizes two bills in 1971 session
Eugene M. Hil, state senator, explains why he opposed a car dealer safety bill requiring official inspection within 30 days of sale and a regional jail plan. He argues the safety rules burden private owners and do-it-yourself buyers, and that regional jails would fail on cost, rehabilitation, and logistics. He notes the regional jail bill failed 24 to 23 but may be reconsidered.
