Legally Troubled Wyoming Politician Slapped Down Twice This Week

Wallis Cannot get Traction with Extremist Policies

HOUSTON (SFTHH) – Wyoming House Bill 51 sponsored by Rep. Sue Wallis, currently under investigation for alleged fraud, ethics violations and battery charges, died a quiet death in the house committee last Wednesday.  Dubbed the “Industrial and Energy Development Protection Bill” it would have required taxpayers and organizations that wanted to question an industrial or energy development permit to post a bond to satisfy any delays or loses that the defending company might incur during the legal challenge.
The concept of this bill was not original on the part of Wallis as it was crafted to quite closely match the Montana Horse Slaughter bill supported by her pro-slaughter associate former Rep. Ed Butcher of Montana back in 2009.  Butcher’s bill required any challengers to companies building horse slaughter plants to put up a bond in Montana, a controversial measure questioned by legal authorities.
The failure of this bill brings Wallis’s weekly tally of political loses to two(2) as her “Wyoming Food Freedom Act” was voted down by a majority in the Wyoming state Ag Committee this past week, also.  This act was touted to be an act which would allow the sale of homemade foods without any requirement for proper inspection.  Many allege that this was a thinly veiled attempt, on Wallis’ part, to circumvent current inspection regulations regarding the transport of meat so that she could profit from her proposed horse slaughter plant.
Wallis has drawn international ire over her said plans to build a horse slaughter plant in the state of Wyoming while ignoring U.S. federal law and regulations.  Her growing list of political failures continues to underscore her disconnect with the will and morals of the taxpaying public and her total disregard for the true pressing issues which confront voting Americans today.
