Scott Bennett to vote against it:

*District Office:*

Note that the main sponsor, Rep Hoffman, is a Democrat who tried to run for
Congress in IL-13 in 2012, and there are a few other conservadems among the
sponsors (Evans, Walsh, Burke, Hurley, Thapedi, DeLuca) and in the Senate
(Hastings, Bertino-Tarrant, Holmes, Maguire, Cunningham). Remember these
names if/when they try to run for higher office.

HB 2280 has no co-sponsors to date, and appears to be stuck in the Rules
Committee.
