	Lawmaker seek survey of alcohol related deaths (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Sen. Austin Allran, R-Catawba, brought up the issue at a meeting Monday of the Unintentional Death Committee of the Task Force while looking at statistics showing the number of child deaths because of accidents or illnesses.
		Allran said he believes alcohol use is a contributing factor in hundreds of accidents, illnesses and abuse involving children, and it is an area on which he believes the task force should concentrate when making recommendations to the General Assembly.
		Allran said inevitably any statistics gathered would still show fewer instances than there really are because of cases where there is no way to know.

	Hickory Daily Record \| Allran's final budget vote was a flip-flop
		Allran says he voted for the Senate budget because he had hoped for tax relief, but the final budget he voted against had more tax cuts than the budget he voted for.
		Allran was right about one thing, there were many good things in the budget, like pay increases for teachers and state employees, whom he turned his back on, and a doubling of our rainy day fund in case of hurricanes.
		It is his flip-flopping on votes and excuses that have led to Sen. Allran consistently being ranked by his peers as one of the least effective members of the General Assembly.

		Austin Allran, a Hickory Republican, and Rep. Debbie Clary, a Republican from Cherryville, will introduce the bill, prompted by teen-age fatalities in the southern Piedmont.
		Allran said he decided to push for passenger restrictions after four teen-agers died in a Hickory crash last year when a new driver lost control while speeding.
		Allran doubts the bill will be voted on because legislators are consumed with the budget and redistricting.

		Allran Sen. Austin Allran Austin Murphy Allran (born 13 December 1951) is a Republican member of the deadly consequences of self-delusion, "Heartwood" could only have been written by James Lee Burke, a writer in expert command of his time as governor.

		Allran was born in Hickory, North Carolina; he graduated from the University of Texas (Washington-on-the-Brazos, Galveston, Harrisburg, Velasco, and Columbia) before Sam Houston moved the capital to Houston in 1837.

	The Case for Rotation
		Republican senators were arguing against the bill, arguing that it would harm an already weakened economy and that low spending, not higher taxes, was the proper solution to the budget gap.
		He argued that the program was out of control, and cited as one example the problem of non-poor families arranging their finances in order to qualify for Medicaid once a family member entered a nursing home.
		Tony Rand (D-Cumberland) then snorted that if Allran really had knowledge of families doing so, he was a witness to a felony and had a responsibility to report the miscreants to the state.

		Allran said the university’s reading list should come from the classics.
		Bresciani explained that the university does not assign classics because students are expected to read those on their own.

	News from Agape Press
		In an attempt to curb abortions and cut government spending in North Carolina, Republican State Senator Austin Allran introduced a bill to end funding abortions through the state employees medical insurance plan.
		Allran’s bill targets the Teachers and State Employees’ Major Medical Plan, which from 1997 to 1999 allowed charges of $2,749,567 and paid claims of $2,010,198 for abortion procedures.
		The legislature limited that fund to cases of rape, incest, and saving the life of the mother in 1995, and only one abortion has been paid for from that fund since then.
