And yet Speaker Thom Tillis claims never to have heard of Glen's bills:

"House Speaker Thom Tillis, R-Mecklenburg, said he wasn't familiar with Cleveland and Bradley's proposals, but said they would be vetted within GOP ranks to see whether they conform with broader Republican goals.

"This election cycle has produced a lot of diversity of thought. That is very healthy," he said."
