Antifa Turkeesian posted:Do they have multiple variations of that bill going on, or was that another state? Multiple states have tried this. Kristi Noem ended up having to veto the very bill she pushed after the NCAA told her what time it is. The one that passed one house here got referred to a Dem-chaired Education Committee so that one is probably dead too. There's a second prong to this ("this" being some ALEC manufactured culture war wedge issue ), that's the banning of trans affirming health care for minors, which is getting blowback from businesses rather than the NCAA. That's the bill that the AR legislature overrode Asa Hutchinson's veto on. zoux fucked around with this message at 18:11 on Apr 20, 2021 |

What are the chances that this'll actually pass? (Not American) Very low Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:According to Gov Tracker, the most recent update was a hearing on April 14th and there is a hearing on it in a different committee later this week. No date scheduled for the final committee vote yet. I've heard - though I haven't read the bill of course - that as far as a drafted piece of legislation, HR1 is pretty bad. Sounds very Christmas-tree, loaded with all sorts of individual rep pet projects and unintended consequences. For example, one issue I saw was the automatic voter registration provision could accidentally register non-citizens to vote, since non-citizens can receive government IDs, and open them up to a whole new world of federal elections violations. The goals are good but as far as the details go, it needs a lot of work. zoux fucked around with this message at 18:45 on Apr 20, 2021 |

I don't see any reason why they wouldn't, but has there ever been an "official" vote of DC's citizens? 86 percent of DC residents voted in favor of it in a 2016 ballot measure.

I guess the DoJ could open an investigation into his culpability into rape and abuse in the Ohio State wrestling program. 2/3s of all Reps could vote to expel him. The minority leader could do a number of things to punish him, but he won't.

That particular voter thing came from a defense attorney, but I can't find the relevant tweet. David Dayen, who is a go-to guy on policy, also isn't impressed: https://twitter.com/ddayen/status/1381960332835311620 My issue isn't with any of the goals of the bill, it's specifically that people I trust on policy say there are problems with the drafting of the bill.

"Can someone call Mike?" another user asked the group. Many people in pro-Trump forums and followers of Lindell's Telegram account stayed up into the early morning hours on Friday, waiting for the platform to go live, which did not happen. When Salon spoke to Lindell about Thursday's failure during our live conversation Monday night, Lindell described the complaints from his fans as a bunch of "bots." Links to video in the article. This dude had it loving made and now he's just dumping his money down an infinite hole while he's facing nine-digit civil liability. loving moron. Heck Yes!
