You think two weeks is an appropriate time frame to draft and debate a new state constitution?

That’s my issue with it. The current constitution absolutely must be replaced.

I don’t like shoehorning it into the last two weeks of the legislative session. Just smacks of rubber stamping a pre-written document. I don’t trust the legislature, administration, or LA’s special interest community enough for that.

Is there some legal reason that it even needs to be done during session? Why not a separate constitutional convention?

Valid questions.I don’t see the need for the urgency. I can’t imagine there’s a legal reason for the rush since we hadn’t really heard about this until very recently.
