    Looks like they’re adding more police and going after fentanyl too. I’ll be interested to see the results when they review in 30 days.

    This was a very poor political decision by the Governor …. The ultimate tone deaf move…. Right next to 500 year old Pelosi saying she will run again for leadership in 2024.

    (80 )McConnell… (81)Biden…. (77)Trump…(83) Pelosi…(90) Grassley….(82) Sanders ….(90) Feinstein….

    These ****ers are old- Chuck Grassley was first elected to the Iowa state legislature in 1958. Eisenhower was President..

    She did not assume emergency powers.

    I don't see the point of what she is doing. it won't hold up in court, and wasn't done in conjunction with law enforcement.

    That's not what I read. Seems like it is limited to certain areas. Probably not a good look though to do this.

    Agree completely. I'd be shocked if this holds.

    Pelosi's not in leadership. She's just running for a random seat in Congress.

    Nothing to do with covid. This isn't so different from Gov. Abbott's ongoing (2 years+) disaster declaration to suspend state laws. Where's the outrage?
