what?

So here I am on my Friday off (b/c my one Friday class was canceled and I can't work anymore because I met my hour restriction for the week...) looking up information about the names on my absentee ballot so that I can vote, when I came across this:
____________________________________________________________________
Senator Doyle voted NO
Read statements Senator Doyle made in this general time period.


Project Vote Smart's Synopsis:

Vote to pass a bill that bans the use of trans fat in restaurants.

Official Title of Legislation:

An act concerning restoration of a swimming pool in Manchester's landmark historic district.

Highlights:

-Forbids restaurants to serve any dish containing margarine, vegetable shortening, or hydrogenated vegetable oil in amounts exceeding 0.5 grams per serving (Sec. 2).

Notice the part in bold.

Ok, so I guess I don't know enough about politics or law because this does not make sense to me.
