Today I am announcing that I am suing Senate President Rob Wagner and legislative leadership.
It has become clear that some members of the legislature don’t even know what is in some of their most extreme legislation. There is no greater example of this than the audible gasp that was heard from one sponsor of HB 2002 when they found out in a public hearing that their bill would allow a 10 year old girl to get an abortion without her parents even knowing about it.
It made me wonder; how could someone not know how extreme legislation they put their name to really is? How could they not understand what is in their own legislation.
The reality is that legislation and summaries of legislation are regularly written at a comprehension level of college graduate or higher.
The Senate has a rule against this. It’s a rule that we’ve been violating for a very long time and now, because of some of the most extremist legislation the Oregon Legislature has ever considered, we are reaping the results.
I brought this up on the floor to President Wagner. He ignored me. I objected. He overruled me. He will not ignore me now.
I cannot stand for such disregard of the rules, the law and the constitution.
Dixie Gainer says –
Dear Tillamook County resident, The Democrats, including Governor Kotek, are behind this atrocious rule making abortion and gender change available to ten year olds without parental knowledge. Do you really want a ten year old person getting an abortion or gender changes without parental notification? Really! Our Oregon legislature is totally corrupt as I have been pointing out from time to time – caused by a practically 14 year Democrat majority.
Even though the Oregon constitution says that Oregon voters get to vote for their supreme court justices – every supreme court judge in Oregon has been placed there by Kate Brown. The Democrats, including Governor Kotek, are behind this atrocious rule, making abortion and gender change available to ten year olds. This means that more than likely if the supreme court rules on this – they will rule in favor of the violator of the rules. You can make a lot of money on the side if you are a legislator in Oregon! Recently Shemia Fagan, our Secretary of State tried to do that but was caught!
