[Tom Hansen]

Oregon is strictly vote-by-mail and has been for several years, with an
increase in average voter turn-out.

Remember the term limits initiative.  It passed and the legislature rejected

it anyway.  A pretty arrogant bunch at times.  You propose an interesting 
initiative.  Pretty sure I wouldn't want all bills to go to the floor for a 
full vote. The committee structure is important when used appropriately for 
hearings, testimony, amendments, and as a barrier to poorly drawn 
legislation.
