I've said it before, and I'll say it again, the minute you cut the politicians' wages, the US would open up within 3 days.
Too many federal & city employees still getting a paycheck pushing to keep things closed
As I said in another thread someone needs to look into city owned vehicles & see how often they were used while employees were supposed to be working from home

From my House Rep a couple days ago:
Dear Mr.
Thanks for writing! We have been working to build support to terminate the governor’s emergency orders for a few weeks now. I helped with the drafting and have already signed. Although the statutes provide that a simple majority of either house of the legislature may terminate an emergency order at any time, it has never been done before as far as I know. So we are awaiting the opinion of legal experts to be sure there are no unintended effects before we submit the petition. For now, if you hear from anyone who wants to help, please ask them to contact their House member and urge them to sign the petition to terminate the emergency orders. Thanks! Beryl A. Amedée State Representative-District 51 302 School St. Houma, LA 70360 Office (985) 858-2967 Fax (985) 858-2968 LOUISIANA

I sure hope they have already told JBE that come May 11 if he doesn’t open up the state this is what will happen.

Exactly, JBE meeting with Trump ended any formal resistance to his plan. Politically it was a brilliant move.

If I understood correctly a post on the PB they were getting all their legal ducks in a row to be ready if he extends again on the 11th
They’re so full of bluster, they won’t do shite then either.

Then it must not have been JBE's idea, because that walleyed sloth is anything but brilliant.

This is a direct quote from my state rep when asked if it can be overturned
“ Yes, but significant issues with that idea: 1. WH is for the extension, 2. We could lose federal dollars once the “emergency” is over, 3. No phasing in plan would be allowed, 4. No other emergency could be declared for any reason (flood, hurricane, tornado, etc). ”
It’s not clear if number 4 is indefinite or for a certain time period. WH = White House

It was a completely retarded idea to begin with.

My conversation with mine went a little different but I led with “you are all JBEs little bitches”.

I posted this response I received a couple days ago in the other thread:
I'm not holding my breath waiting for them to do anything about it.
quote:
It's time to get Louisiana families back to work. I'm very frustrated that Gov. Edwards has made the unilateral decision to keep the entire state shut down versus a regional approach. As the executive, that power lies in his hands, not the legislature.
We're looking into every possible option to force his hand. One of those options was overriding his executive emergency declaration, but there could be very serious unintended consequences to doing that. Some of the unintended consequences would be losing our state federal match (which could be hundreds of millions of dollars), businesses losing the ability to get Payroll Protection Loans to help keep their businesses open, and not qualifying for FEMA aid with things like continued testing.
We're going back into session on Monday, May 4 and will be focused on continuing to push the governor to open up and being ready to help businesses and families as soon as he does. We are leaving all options on the table in case the governor decides to extend the stay at home order any longer.

The incredible GOP led state of Mississippi, led by a red blooded freedom loving republican governor, just reversed course on reopening bc they had 30 deaths and 300 new cases today.
They have less than 3,000 total cases and 300 deaths. We have almost 30,000 and 2,000 respectively.
I think we should all open up. People die. That’s the way the world works. But the JBE hate is absurd. He’s doing the same thing all the republicans are doing

If Bodi White had an ounce of charisma or public appeal, Baton Rouge would have an ineffectual do little in the mayor's office instead of what we have now that's actively steering into the trainwreck.
