disneydream06Sitting here watching Rachel Maddow.
She is reporting on Michigan's emergency management laws and their Republican run legislature.
Michigan has laws that say a bill cannot become law until 90 days after the legislature has closed for the year. UNLESS they use the emergency immediate effect.
HOWEVERR, that Immediate Effect requires a Super Majority 73 votes.
Michigan Republicans only have 63 members.
Rachel showed an example of a bill where every Democrat voted against a bill leaving the 63 Republicans to vote in favor of the bill. And yet, the bill was passed into law with an Immediate Effect vote that did not exist and the Governor signed it into an immediate law.
WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of the emergency laws that was "Majority" voted through...
Preventing student unions from expanding.
SERIOUSLY?????????????
That is an emergency issue???????????????????????????
I pity all my friends that live in Michigan. Heck I pity anybody that's not a Republican politician in Michigan.
The state is being ruled under Dictatorship rules.
Michigan, it's time to take back your state.
