    This is the peek of blue sky amongst the clouds I’ve wanted to see! ALL free thinking states need to do this. We have two months to shore up our defenses. I’m hoping to see this type of thing a lot in the coming weeks.

    Our state is not perfect, but it feels like a country more than a state at times. We try to deal with our problems and are willing to experiment with novel solutions. It makes sense to defend our little laboratory here against willful punishment from vindictive dictators.

      You have stuff like Prop 65 and on the other hand CCPA. It’s a mixed bag but at least CA tries.
