Support Amendment (Oppose Motion to Table)
Senate Journal Page: 2687

Motion to Table. May 20, 2005, p 2687 Amendment 29 by Jackson. Amendment 29 tabled 18 - 13.


YCT Nay. In 2003, a provision was quietly inserted into the Transportation Code that allowed municipalities to install cameras at intersections and photograph red light runners and send the owner or operator of the vehicle a civil citation. Amendment 29 would have repealed this provision. YCT opposes installation of government-monitored cameras to broadly survey the public, as these invade on our civil liberties.
