I’m trying to make sense of this poorly written story. The bills she vetoed did or did not take away Second Amendment rights?
Makes one wonder what they found out about ol’ Jan.
<< Jan Brewer has done some good things, when she was up for reelection... >>
Correction. She did some good things after she was appointed governor when Jane Napolitano left and Brewer was up for her first election.
After that, she vetoed any significant pro-rights gun bill that managed to make it to her desk and only signed the soft-ball bills.
Arizona voters should elect a Republican governor so that they can get these bills signed into law. Oh wait . . .
In all fairness, moss does not grow on the AZ legislature. However, that being said, sometimes Brewer vetoes because there are obvious problems with a law; and other times, because she doesn’t like a law.
There was some hypocrisy in a recent gun law veto. When she vetoed it before, she gave a reason why. So the legislature rewrote it to exclude what troubled her. But she vetoed it again but for a different reason. That is not being honest.
Importantly, she also vetoed a law that would expand those violent criminals eligible for the death penalty. But she passed something like 85 laws this session.
In any event, she is being term limited out, and hopefully the next governor is going to be far more conservative.
