Brazil Ends Long Tradition of 6-Day Workweek via Constitutional Amendment https://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/brazil-ends-long-tradition-of-6-day-workweek-via-constitutional-amendment/
@jacob@mountaincommunity.coSubmitted my US ballot! There were 39 different questions this year, a lot of annoying propositions and proposed CO constitutional amendments. Take nothing for granted this year and #vote!
RE: #Utah #utpol is also trying to pass a constitutional amendment to require 60% to pass voter propositions right now.
If it had been in place in 2018, there would've been no Medicaid expansion, no medical weed, and no independent redistricting commission.
Now, granted, the #utgop is continually fighting voters' choices on those 2018 propositions, but the props would have just failed if 60% was the requirement to pass.
Vote No on Amendment B, Utah. Vote no on A, too, to prevent them from sneaking in changes without notifying the public.
Refreshed my memory on the constitutional situation vis-a-vis the House of Lords v Commons. Fascinating stuff.

Atlee gets all the credit for setting up proper public services, but it was arguably the end point, or a high water mark, for a tide that had been slowly swelling for decades, centuries even, laboriously hauled into existence by Liberals. Must remember death duties were introduced in 1894, next time the red tops are screaming about a "death tax"...

As an adult stranger, I have the Constitutional right to bully the children of others?
And on the Shadow Docket, so they don't have to sign a full ruling to make it effective.
