It looks like the Employee Safe Commute legislation has been shot dead for this year's session. I don't have many details but it looks like we can thank Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey and Speaker Beth Harwell. On a different note, remember we have elections coming this August and November. |

Does this really surprise anyone? Given our protracted battle for restaurant carry, we should now be ready for (but still not liking) villification by the media, the handwringers & segments of business. FedEx is nothing but Randy Rayburn magnified many times over, IMO.
As I see it, I think it's their lawyers who is driving FedEx's opposition to this. I bet they're worried about this making it easier/more likely for someone to A) go postal; & B) have a hug lawsuit against them over the event (should one ever occurr). While anyone with a lick of sense knows that a company policy will never prevent someone going postal, we are talking about lawyers.................
