I am still working the PCS (Proposed Committee Substitute) for the terrorism bil. Thanks a million for all your help!
In the interim, I have just submitted three more bills to drafting to get ahead of the deadline:
BILL 1: BAN WARRANTLESS AND SUSPICIONLESS CHECKSTOP ROADBLOCKS IN NORTH CAROLINA
Ban Warrantless Checkstops - North Carolina law enforcement officials and officers may not use roadblocks to sweep for random offenses. Roadblocks may be used as cordons for capturing a specifically named offender that has an arrest warrant, but those roadblocks may not ticket or cite drivers for other unrelated violations such as safety inspections or registrations or expired licenses etc, only issue verbal/written warnings without actual citations. Other drivers who have standing warrants for arrest may be arrested, but a roadblock for the purposes of 'sweeping' for violations are not allowed. Roadblocks encountering drunk drivers (DUI) shall advise the drunk drivers to stop and either call someone to collect them, or remain parked until morning, but they may not issue DUI citations unless the driver ignores that advice and continues to drive beyond the roadblock.
BILL 2: REQUIRE LABELING FOR GENETICALLY MODIFIED FOOD AND DAIRY PRODUCTS THAT HAVE BEEN ENHANCED BY GROWTH HORMONES.
Label GMO foodstuffs and rGBH dairy - All foodstuffs that contain Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) material and all dairy products that contain Recombinant Bovine Growth Hormones (rBGH) milk, to be sold in NC must include labeling no smaller than the ingredients list, and accompanying the ingredients list, identifying the product as containing GMO or rGBH material.
BILL 3: COUNTY COMMISSIONERS BOARDS MAY OPT TO HOLD SPECIAL ELECTIONS WHENEVER THE NORTH CAROLINA GENERAL STATUTES DIRECT THEM TO APPOINT REPLACEMENTS FOR PUBLIC ELECTED OFFICES.
County Commissioners may opt for Special Election when faced with Appointments - if a county commissioners board is faced with appointing any elected office, they may instead choose to make a temporary appointment and hold a special election at a time and a manner they shall choose.
