  1. There is zero actual evidence that people are being paid to protest outside the Statehouse. It’s a ludicrous right-wing myth, stemming from a righteous disbelief that some — and sometimes many — people detest their policies enough to go out and protest. State lawmakers certainly should not be hastily writing legislation based on perceptions or beliefs that have no basis in fact.
