This bill is total crap! Why are we wasting time and money on naming a stupid clinic after some random guy? It's ridiculous and a waste of taxpayer dollars. I can't believe this is actually happening. SMH.

I don't get why they're naming that clinic after some guy. Why can't they just leave it as it is? How will this affect me in the short term?
