Oregon supreme court is a rubber stamp for democrats.
Before the democrats pushed in vote by mail we actually had a two party system, when republicans would be in power the democrats would stage walkouts the media would hail them as heroes. Now that democrats have the permanent majority walkouts have to be quashed. |

Quoted: The Oregon Supreme Court said Thursday that 10 Republican state senators who staged a record-long walkout last year to stall bills on abortion, transgender health care and gun rights cannot run for reelection. The decision upholds the secretary of state's decision to disqualify the senators from the ballot under a voter-approved measure aimed at stopping such boycotts. Measure 113, passed by voters in 2022, amended the state constitution to bar lawmakers from reelection if they have more than 10 unexcused absences. https://hosted.ap.org/article/f1d270db9e9a72935c13b973d79a4bb7/oregon-high-court-says-10-gop-state-senators-who-staged Well, they broke the law passed by ballot measure. It's unfortunate, but they knew what would happen. If it were Democrat lawmakers skipping out on a Republican legislature, we'd be screaming bloody murder too. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Well, they broke the law passed by ballot measure. It's unfortunate, but they knew what would happen. If it were Democrat lawmakers skipping out on a Republican legislature, we'd be screaming bloody murder too. Their argument was that the language of the bill barred them from running in the next election, but was not a permanent ban. Oregon supreme court has a history of ignoring the language and intent of bills and finding in favor of democrats. |

The law was no doubt created as a way to prevent Republicans from using this tactic, with the added benefit of removing any Republicans who use it from the board. This is authoritarian banana republic shit.

Except in this case they are punishing the voters not the lawmakers IMO. Fine them, arrest them, whatever them, but it's pretty un-American to ban any real American from a ballot. Let the people decide their fate. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Their job is to protect me from Democrats passing shit. Showing up and voting no fails that. Not showing up and not voting accomplishes that. We had a highly publicized issue here in Texas some years ago where Democrats skipped out to prevent laws from being passed. There were all kinds of story of Texas DPS being sent to track them down. Undoubtedly, the Democrat voters felt strongly that these reps were doing the right thing for them too. As far as I know, Texas has not passed a similar law where representatives could be barred from reelection, but I'm sure most Texas conservatives would be in favor of something like that. Which is to say: We shouldn't be surprised if liberal shitholes like Oregon do it. If it's not constitutional, then appeal it. Otherwise, the best we can do is quid pro quo. |
