Before I explain my negative vote, I would like to ask the House Leadership to explain why I was not allowed to interpellate the sponsors of House Bill No. 6875 despite the fact that I seasonably registered my intention to interpellate and I was assured that I was number three in the list of interpellators. Many more were allowed to interpellate and Section 54 of Rule 10 of the House Rules was not enforced.
When I complained that I was not being called to interpellate, I was told to call the Majority Leader but the Majority Leader did not answer my repeated calls.
