This reminds me of something that happened in MD a few years back. A state delegate from a county near Washington, DC (Prince Georges) proposed a ban on bear hunting (which only happens in the far west of MD). In response, a delegate from western MD proposed a bill that the bears be captured in western MD and released in Price Georges County. Both bills died in committee.
