If you oppose immigration reform, you should be forced to take the US Naturalization test. Like these idiots below, it is quite likely that you will not pass. In my perfect world, you, the idiot American citizen, would be deported.

Today's House Agenda features HB 308(M. Smith), 'create(s) an Office of the Common Interest Community Ombudsman' to address disputes between developers and residents in communities 'created by legal documents drafted by the developer and...intended to be managed by those living in these communities. As someone who did a lot of constituent service work, I can tell you that there were a lot of issues that could have used this mechanism to resolve w/o going to court. I think this is a real good bill. Once again, excellent legislating from Melanie Smith, one of the General Assembly's best.
