DES MOINES, Iowa -- An Iowa lawmaker is urging anyone who's unhappy with the president-elect to "suck it up."

Representative Bobby Kaufmann is proposing what he calls the "suck it up, buttercup" bill.

He says protests on Interstate 80 last week sparked the idea. The bill would clarify state laws about highway protests.

It would also fine schools that use tax dollars to support what he calls "cry rooms" for students upset about the outcome of an election.

“You've got a right to be a brat,” said Representative Kaufmann. “You've got a right to protest, that's constitutionally protected.  But you do not have a right to throw a temper tantrum on Interstate 80 and put my constituent’s lives in danger.”

Representative Kaufmann says he thinks his bill could inspire a national movement.

Sounds good to me. Plus make the protesters and organizers of obstruction of highways jointly and severally liable for damages in civil court.

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
