State Representative Bud Hulsey and Senator Mark Pody proposed a law that would prohibit enforcement of executive orders violating a few of the most basic human rights, such as the freedom of movement, the right to run a business, or freedom to assemble.
When explaining the bill, Representative Hulsey took responsibility for recent overreach, rather than blaming the governor. Hulsey stated that he believes the legislator put the governor in an unfair position, by delegating legislative power to the governor. Hence, in Hulsey’s assessment, the legislator neglected its own responsibility toward the people and now it is the legislator’s duty to correct that mistake.
