So what makes the GOP really not support them? The republicans wish for smaller gov't. So these 3 push for a budget...which republicans want. Where's the problem? I searched ledoux and she doesn't vote on much according to the sites. The most recent bill she pushed for was in connection with school/abortion. Where are her fiscal constraints on the budget? I just don't see how this state with less than a million people can have a government $4 billion in the black. Spending has to be curbed.
