The Nebraska Senate has passed a bill banning out-of-state petition circulators. It is on the Governor’s desk now. Thanks to Sean Haugh for this news.
This is bad news for ballot access in Nebraska, which means bad news for the people of Nebraska as they will have less of a say in government in their state as it will be more difficult to put things on the ballot.
Chalk one up for bigger government wanting to control the whole playground.
What ever happened to, “By the people, for the people”??? Is it now to be, “By the Governor, for the Governor”???
Have we all become sheep? At least Iraq still fights for its freedom!
