Okay, well, that’s not how I understand it. I read that the governor and Secretary of State unilaterally added provisions without the consent of the legislature. I will research and get back. But Mastriano seems to be working with Trump so I guess we’ll know soon.
This has all turned into a PR mess, endless spin, and passing the buck.
I appreciate your looking into it and, if you find different info, I am more than willing to hear it.
That said, Schoolhouse Rocks 101 is pretty straightforward- governors (and Presidents) have zero authority over legislation, other than signing or vetoing. Alas, the Legislative coequal branch of government exists. “I’m just a bill...”.
I don’t care who anyone pays lip service to or who’s coattails they ride. They have direct responsibilities and actions that are 100% in their control. They are either acting on those responsibilities or not. Trump, of all people, has no shortage of “friends” when the “friends” perceive personal benefits. As much as I like about Trump, he is singularly bad at distinguishing between “friends” and friends, and has been for a very, very long time.
