Rep. Koch of Barre Town explained his vote as follows:
"Mr. Speaker:
It's that time of year. The daffodils are sprouting and so are the resolutions that keep the Legislature in business through the summer months.
I support the intent of this resolution - to learn more about what Vermonters think about our health care system and long-term care. But I do not support the ever increasing assault on the concept of a citizen legislature.
Mr. Speaker, when the gavel falls Saturday night, we should be gone."
Rep. Miller of Shaftsbury explained her vote as follows:
"Mr. Speaker:
I applaud the members of the House who are responsible for this initiative.
For the past decade I have been seeped in knowledge of the health care industry in Vermont as a result of being my mother's primary caregiver in the last years of her life. I know the best and worst of it and I am pleased that we are making the effort to improve the health care system for our neediest citizens."
