6 thoughts on “Taxpayer files second legal challenge to new emergency-powers law

  1. Citizen Whit brings common sense to the table. The legislative Super Majority is acting like they have the form of government they wish they had rather than the real form of government that the Indiana Constitution allows. All of which demonstrates how pernicious gerrymandering is. Fair and reasonable redistricting would go a long way toward restoring democracy in Indiana.

  2. The Indianapolis City-County Council tried to usurp executive branch authority by illegally circumventing a 2017 MDC rezoning decision, but was rebuked by a Johnson County court, and later withdrew its appeal of that ruling (because they knew they would lose). Too many newbie legislators, gerrymander-babies, are a piece of work, always trying to flex their muscles, profess “populist” political ideology, and grab power. It’s good to see the public-standing doctrine utilized. Need more frequent assertion of that important right.

  3. I’m proud of Gov. Holcomb and Citizen Whit for pushing back against their own party when they determined that the Republican controlled Legislature was out of line with the Indiana Constitution. I wish McCarthy and McConnell would do the same in Congress as the “shadow government” seems to control Republicans’ legislative actions. It’s time for Congressional Republicans to do what’s right, rather than what Trump dictates. That’s how my Republican party used to operate.
