Jerry Hill, the San Mateo Assembly member, announced his third annual "There Oughta Be A Law…or Not" contest.  People who live in the 19th Assembly District can submit ideas for improving life in San Mateo County or the state.  Hill will select a winner and introduce the idea as legislation, giving the victor a chance to testify in Sacramento.

OK, OK, I'll go first.  I suggest a law that says the Assembly must present annually, at the same time as they pass the budget >insert sly grin here< a list of 25 past laws that they are cancelling.

    There outta be a law to repeal the California High Speed Rail Prop 1A bond issuance without having to go back to the electorate.
    And there outta be a law to dissolve the California High Speed Rail Authority.
    Finally there outta be a law to permanently dedicate operational funding to Caltrain so that it can let go of CHSRA’s coat-tails in the failed scheme to capture state and federal dollars to keep our local transit in place.
