we are deeply disturbed by the chilling impact this decision will have to crush dissent
Give me a fucking break. As a legislator, you have no shortage of ways to dissent including access to media, the ability to speak on the floor of the legislature, and the ability to vote on legislation. What you can’t do, if you want to keep your job is not show up for work every time you know you’re going to lose a vote so that the legislature can’t do business.
The GOP loves whining and not doing their job. These people are being paid to represent people, by wilfully abusing quorum to stall the process they are doing their constituents a major disservice.
Filibuster if you want to stand there and defend against change you disagree with, but using absence as a political weapon is slimy and low effort.
Isn’t that literally what the nazis did? Block decision making by walking out of the Reichstag when they were in the oposition?
Oh brother…that word is thrown around way too much by both sides…
Huuurrr hurr hurrr.

Does that go for both sides? We visited Portland a while back, some of it looked like a 3rd World Country…and we all know what party is in control…
