If you live in New Hampshire then chances are you have heard about the shenanigans at the NH House revolving around a bill, submitted by a fourth grade class, to make the Red Tailed Hawk New Hampshire’s official state raptor.

The fourth grader made a special trip to the State House to see their government in action and watch their bill become law. Of course we would not be talking about this bill if everything went according to plan.

Susan Bruce wrote an excellent post about what happened when this bill came to the floor. Her initial post helped propel this story ultimately ending up on MSNBC, Huffington Post, and many other national news organizations.

This weekend, the very funny John Oliver put his comedic spin on this story. Even if you know all about this story, or have never heard anything about it till now, you should watch this short video.
