The government is trying to undo the will of the people as expressed at the ballot box. We call that democracy in America. You might fit in better in CHYna
Go ahead and defend using the tax dollars of the people who legally voted this in to try to eliminate it in court
We'll be waiting for the next dodge as always
It does look like ATL nailed the goose stepper part. And he didn't say the suit was fascism he said it is what communists and fascist do and he's right
Their analysis argues the measure violates provisions limiting citizen initiatives to no more than one subject and requiring them to contain the full text of the portion of state laws it would alter.
Lane said Initiative 2066 was carefully crafted with such a challenge in mind and that every section addresses protecting the choice to access and use natural gas.
“Those who want to ban natural gas have been clear in their intent to use every avenue available to undermine Washington’s democracy and the people of Washington’s right to initiative,” Lane sai
Madam, less than 40% of Americans even live in a state which allows citizen initiatives. Washington's Constitution authorizes citizen initiatives but imposes specific conditions and requirements on them. Whatever the Hell you meant by the saying the initiative was already "vetted", why would anyone bother to challenge an initiative's legality before it has actually passed? (Pre-election challenges are usually concerned with whether the initiative has met the requirements for being on the ballot.)
I seem to remember that once upon a time the Washington state Constitution prohibited a graduated tax on income. So, the state passed a graduated capital gains tax on income from the sale of capital assets. The wizards on the Washington Supreme Court then decided that the tax was not a tax on income but rather an excise tax on income from the sale of capital assets. Thus, no income tax and no Constitutional prohibition. Sort of like the US Supreme Court ruling that the mandate to buy health insurance was not a mandate but a punitive excise tax. The written language and intent is not important to an evolving organic Constitution that can be divined by progressive legal scholars including the spineless Chief Justice.
The current governor elect (allegedly) wrote the language that appeared on the ballot and was approved by voters. He butchered the language on the other three that were rejected.

Anyone find this surprising? Its what government control socialists/communists/fascists do.
The goose steppers on here will soon be defending the move by government to overthrow the will of the people.
They did that with car tabs too.
It's possible that the bleating about democracy over the last 4 years was not totally sincere
Developing
"Filing suit is fascism!" cried the hysterical harpies.
A friend of mine in Renton was without power for six days right before Thanksgiving. Having gas meant they didn't need to go to a hotel.
Must defend everything

Unlike you
"Using courts to challenge legality of sale of InfoWars site good; using courts to challenge legality of Initiative 2066 bad!" grunted Race.
Who voted for info wars?
You really seriously are retarded
Initiatives must meet certain legal requirements. Whether legal requirements were satisfied gets hashed out in courts under our system.
Civics ain't your strength.
"But people voted!" shrieked Race.
It was vetted by before it went on the ballot. And the people voted for it
I get it. You hate democracy
Like i said
This bullshit is what goose stepper is defending

Commie groups can challenge. It's the state using the voters money to overturn an election that's the issue

The word salad appears as the lawyer doesn't know that initiatives need to be approved to get on the ballot.
Aaaannnnnddddd right on cue, the goose stepping moron hh comes in to defend the big government socialists/communists/socialists.
If nothing else, hh is dependable in supporting the bad guys.

Wrong!
