Says: what is clear to me after copious amounts of reading is we in this place should not take the granting of personhood lightly. Such a Bill should be considered very carefully over a period of time. I have closely read the AMA, Bar Association advice, and the Ca peel Review. I cannot lightly ignore the amount of expert advice I have seen and those who have serious and legitimate concerns. Therefore, I believe one of the appropriate courses is to be referred through a committee process of this House. I cannot support the Bill in its current form. #ourchoice
