Classic example of government overreach getting slapped down by the people. When politicians think they can bypass the legislature and concentrate power, it’s a huge red flag. Glad to see public pressure forcing a walk-back, but it never should’ve gotten this far in the first place. This is why limited government and strong checks are so important.

Glad to see public pressure actually made a difference this time—this bill was way too heavy-handed from the start. Giving the government unchecked power to sidestep the legislature is a huge red flag, no matter the intention. Progressives should always push for more transparency and democratic oversight, not less. It’s good Eby admitted they messed up, but it’s concerning it got this far without those basic safeguards. Hopefully the revised version won’t trample on accountability just to score political points.
