I should hope so. I know the hunters of south Alabama will, too. I hope that we can address this as expeditiously as we can, because it is wrong of us to give this authority. Whether or not it was done in the middle of the night in the Senate or wherever, the law is the law. The people of Alabama do not violate the law. So we are not baiting fields anyway. But if he finds one kernel of corn of Fish and Wildlife, the game warden, then that property owner can be assessed a $200,000 fine under existing law. So I hope we can address it.
