The Unconventional Gazette
February 28, 2013
Texas legislators, like our congressmen and senators in Washington, often do not read the measures they are voting on. Most members of Congress never read the Affordable Health Care Act bill and had only sparse information about what was actually contained in the Obamacare bill.
One of the best examples of lawmakers not knowing what they are voting on occurred in 1971 when the Texas legislature unanimously approved a resolution honoring Albert Henry DeSalvo for his population control efforts.
So, who is Albert Henry DeSalvo? DeSalvo is better known as the Boston Strangler. He murdered 13 women. DeSalvo died in 1973.

This actually DID happen in the Mass. legislature some ten or more years ago. The resolution passed.
