This bill is so dumb, why do they need to link all the family members together? It's just gonna make everything more complicated and take longer. I don't see how this is gonna help anyone. Just another example of the government making things harder for us regular folks. SMH. #ridiculous This bill is gonna make things so much harder for us regular folks. Can't believe they're actually passing this.
