Democrats keep grasping failure from the jaws of victory. Unforced error.
Also why the actual fuck is that State Congress convened for 7 entire months?!? What is the point of a government that isn’t even present for the majority of the year?
That’s pretty standard for state legislatures. A lot of states treat the legislature as a part-time job and expect their elected representatives to have other responsibilities as well. It used to even be common for states to only convene every other year.
Hell in my state they aren’t even convened that often. The more and more the governor’s been calling special sessions. Either way I’m actually grateful for it because the longer they’re in session the more damage they do.

Same reason school stops in the summer: Gotta have time for farm chores.
Golf, baby!
