This seems good overall. However, it is only good to the extent that GOP state legislators are willing to pass and enact conservative policy. The problem is that they have been increasingly unwilling to do so.

Thanks to Lynn for the details of the bill.
I hope, Fred, they can do some good things with these new prerogatives. I suspect there will be court battles with the socialists over this legislation, but I also suspect the GOP will prevail.
