Crawford: Lawmakers have to say goodbye
Placeholder Image
We can wave goodbye to another General Assembly session as legislators head back to their home districts, most of them planning to run for another two-year term as part of the circus under the Gold Dome.This year, as in all even-numbered years, there were several lawmakers who decided to call it a career, as far as elective politics go. In some cases, taxpayers and advocates of clean government can heave a sigh of relief at the decisions to retire. There are a few legislators, however, who made a contribution to the greater good during their years in office and will be sorely missed.Rep. Roger Williams, R-Dalton, is one of those people.
