Washington Rep Loves 'Star Trek'
August 8, 2007
BOSTON -- Washington state Rep. Bob Hasegawa invoked his affection for "Star Trek" during the National Conference of State Legislatures' annual conference on Wednesday. "I come out of the closet on that issue," the Democrat announced at the morning business meeting.
In addition to proclaiming his love for the erstwhile television series, he criticized a proposed resolution on building 21st century communications infrastructure. According to Hasegawa, the proposed policy position was too conciliatory to private companies. When put to a vote, the resolution was rejected. -- Michael Martinez
