There is obviously going to be a lawsuit to stop this if the governor signs off. It seems to fly directly in the face of the constitution.
It does fly in the face of the constitution, and multiple SCOTUS' have affirmed exactly that several times.
Aha but this time we will find out which of the plaintiffs or some amicus curiae can afford the better RV.
Yeah but we don’t have a SCOTUS anymore, we have a group of fascist fucks doing what the dollar tells them
It will be overturned after months of totally unnecessary court wrangling.
LA lawmakers will then say "we tried to enact your will, voters, but those godless fat cats in DC wouldn't let us!"
Meanwhile said lawmakers will make no actual attempt to fix the status quo, and the wrangling and debate will ensure entrenched powers stay in power.
It clearly does, and allowing this to be enforced clearly breaks precedent, but with how the Supreme Court is now who knows what will happen.
Actually, it doesnt. The SCOTUS will say that the 1A only limits federal powers, not state.
man its a good thing the feds can't mandate what the states can do...
Not sure if you're being facetious, but that was the entire point of Dobbes
not once has the fed ever said to a state that the state couldn't do anything ever, it's never happened.
Not once. Don't ask texas about secession.
Sounds like you might be entirely ignorant of our current political landscape.
The road to Hell is paved with people saying "stop overreacting!!"
and the road to fascism is paved with people overreacting. Yeah i've heard it all.
Stop being sensational and we can have a serious discussion about the current political climate.
