Representative Perry speaks out on the House Floor against the abuse of the process used by the majority party to avoid taking a direct vote on lowering the sales tax back to 5%.
Thank you for your honesty. You truly are a beacon of light in an otherwise parallel universe we call Massachusetts politics. Keep fighting the good fight Rep. Perry!
Personal accountability seems to be a lost virtue in Mass. politics.
How can these elected officials hold their heads up when they return to their constituents without having the strength to represent them by casting a VOTE?
This 'study' escape reminds me of voting "present" - what a bunch of COWARDS!!!
Just wait til 2010!!! I do believe Americans of ALL persuasions are FED UP and will be ready to cast their votes for those with integrity!
What a naive fool I've been to think that there has actually been voting going on at Beacon Hill. I'll betcha the same legislator who reportedly drove to NH to buy his booze is one of the dead-beats who will vote "STUDY."
Way to go, Jeff. My favorite line is this: "These are tough times. It's time for tough votes."
This notion that the state legislator is abusing the notion of "STUDY" needs to be on the front page of the Boston Herald immediately.
Thanks, Jeff, for being so bold as to actually call the democrats out on their deceitful practices.
I continue to look to your example for guidance in my own campaign.

November 2010 can't come soon enough to vote every liberal lefty wacko incumbent out of office.
