I am in support of increasing CE hours from 6 to 8 hours.  There are plenty of opportunities to gain these hours through many facets including VALVT and specialty organization conferences and online opportunities.  As professionals, if we are more educated and engaged in our field, we will gain more respect from our peers and the clients we help. I believe 2 hours more are not a imposition on our time, especially if those 2 hours can improve our skills and the efficiency of completing those skills.
