I believe they are already addressing the concerns with amendments. Though I thoroughly applaud the country for taking actions to address this.

In a bid, perhaps, to quell some concerns Andrzej Duda, the president, has submitted amendments to the law, removing or diluting some of its more contentious points such as the commission's power to exclude people from public office.

Perhaps they've realized that completely going through with the anti-Tusk campaign would actually sink them (I still have my doubts that PiS are capable of realizing this entirely, but eh). Though if the law were remotely serious about "combating Russian influence," you would see them go after Konfederacja goons...which will probably only happen when pigs fly.

Good point about Konfederacja (Did we export Crazy Southern GOP to Poland?)
