In their own words
When Robert A Clausen explained why
13 published reasons found for 2022.

The lawmaker opposes passing this specific bill because they believe it does not adequately guard against future threats and encourages waiting for a better version next year.
The lawmaker supports the bill to clarify state ownership of water and ensure proper management while protecting prior appropriation rights.
The lawmaker opposes the bill because spending these federal dollars contributes to inflation that negatively affects constituents at gas pumps and grocery stores.
State officials salary.

The lawmaker supports the bill because it serves as a simple clarification of a specific point in state statute regarding contested cases.
The speaker urges a no vote on the amendment because removing the funds will eliminate necessary resources for cyber security, software maintenance, and hardware issues.

The lawmaker supports defeating the amendment to stay out of deviation because protecting Native American populations and cultural communities is worth exceeding population limits.
The lawmaker urges voting no because he believes the bill covers all vaccine mandates, upends established public health doctrine, is anti-business by stripping employers of authority to set conditions, and imposes an arbitrary five-year wait period for school mandates.
The speaker supports the bill because inflation over decades makes an increase to the revenue threshold necessary.
