Of course the more cynical think the GOP are trying to protect themselves with this bill. I doubt the bill would take effect soon.
But this is not new with me. I complained about the ease of recalls long ago, but I can’t find the link
.But it might be too hard to correct. One man’s malfeasance is another’s governing style. But it shouldn’t be recallable unless there’s criminal misconduct. Like Anthony Weiner, David Vitter or similar.
Not just because we disagree with their policy.
