Nathaniel Herz has not taken the time to familiarize himself with the Joint Uniform Legislative Rules and therefore actually believes that this bill must have  a majority of committee members vote to move the bill.  He also actually believes that a Committee Chair is empowered to refuse to hold hearings on bills referred to his or her committee.   Neither of these assumptions are true.  Mr. Herz has frequently demonstrated that he doesn't understand the legislative process and that makes him a useful tool of those who purposefully abuse the system and also makes his reporting on the process suspect. In this case I would suggest he read Joint Legislative Uniform Rule 24 ( Committee Referral and Action) Link: http://www.legis.state.ak.us/basis/folioproxy.asp?url=http://wwwjnu01.legis.state.ak.us/cgi-bin/folioisa.dll/unir/query=*/doc/{t24}?
