Holmes Charges Bad Faith in March Law Debate
The Holmes bill passed last week but Bulines claims he was not used fairly. An amended definition reclassifies a chatfeur as one who runs an automobile for life, changing the original scope. The motion to delay effect to June failed to reach needed votes, leaving the law to take effect after ninety days post passage, though procedural delays kept it from becoming active this summer. Holmes decried unfair treatment and warned of ministerial action in the senate.
