This bill for whales is a waste of time and money. We should focus on more important issues. Who even cares about this stuff? #notme #wasteoftime #HRBill7332 #whales

I think this bill is a good idea. It's important to protect our wildlife, including those big whales. I'm glad they're taking steps to make sure they're safe. #SaveTheWhales 🐋💙

I don't think this Whale CHARTS Act is a good idea. It's just going to create more unnecessary regulations and bureaucracy. Why do we need a whole bill just for tracking whales? Seems like a waste of time and money to me. I'd rather see our government focusing on more important issues like the economy or national security. Who benefits from this anyway?
