A bill moving through the Florida Legislature would require restaurant restrooms to have toilet paper.

Sen. Victor Crist, R-Tampa, thinks restaurant bathrooms ought to always have plenty of toilet paper, and he’s got legislation to show he means it.

The bill has several requirements for restaurant restrooms, generally requiring that they are clean and have certain amenities, such as hot water and plenty of soap.

The bill also requires that a supply of toilet tissue must be provided in each toilet stall at all times.

Crist delivered his remarks to the Health Regulation Committee, which gave its unanimous approval.

It makes me wonder if something went horribly wrong while he was utilizing the facility in a restaurant.

I’m all in favor of public restrooms being clean and well-stocked, but I hate to think my tax dollars are being wasted on what seems like “well, duh!” legislation.

    I’m torn on this one (no play on toilet paper intended).
    I agree with your point about “well, duh” legislation, but some business owners need to be nudged a little to do the right thing.

    Wonder how long it’ll be before some steals all the TP, then files a civil suit against the restaurant?
