❌ HB451
Designate CPL Lindsey William Mitchell Memorial Highway
Current Status: In House Committee (Transportation)
Summary
This bill designates a portion of Interstate 70 in Franklin and Fairfield counties as the 'CPL Lindsey William Mitchell Memorial Highway' and allows the director of transportation to erect suitable markers indicating its name.
Rationale
The bill does not align with the Libertarian principles of minimal government intervention and individual rights, as it involves government action to designate a highway and erect markers, which may be seen as unnecessary state involvement.
Risks and Concerns
- Increases government involvement in public spaces
- Potentially diverts funds from more critical needs
- May set a precedent for further government naming and memorialization efforts
