State Rep. Robin Wright-Jones held a press conference Tuesday at her campaign headquarters about her support of an eminent domain initiative petition. Outside, a group passed out a flier (click here to download) showing she indeed voted for both the eminent domain reform legislation and the Land Assemblage Tax Credit, which one of her vocal supporters, Jim Roos, attacked her opponent, State Rep. Rodney Hubbard*, for supporting.
Wright-Jones appeared caught off guard by the flier and instead of explaining her votes, she told the handful of people in attendance that they could call her later and she’d tell them why she voted for the bills.
Wright-Jones briefly said she voted for the bill “before it was radically changed”, but the record shows she, in fact, voted in favor of the final version of the Land Assemblage bill, which passed 125-19.
