She also said they feel that since the courts ruled it unconstitutional, De Leon feels there is no need for a constitutional amendment to strip it out. I disagree...vehemently! A federal court did not issue and order to remove anything from our constitution. It just bars enforcement. Add to that that ruling can still be challenged. We have to fight this.
My apologies, I spaced that the bill tampers with a former ballot measure which became part of the constitution, even though the measure has been invalidated by the courts, my thought was that he was off wasting time on some symbolic bs. The gut and amend shows that he's trying to hide putting his hands in the cookie jar.

It doesn't matter the subject matter of the measure - it needs to be fought. There is a reason for citizen end run around the state government and they're not supposed to be messing with the process.

Senate Bill 396.
