@shanedphillips<br/> “I thought that at first, but I'm starting to think that it's such a large and obvious oversight that it's pissing a lot of people off (not me, to be clear). I don't want it to poison the well before the bill can even start to gain momentum.”

=== Doesn't address [[CEQA]] (California Environmental Quality Act) ===

@Hyper_lexic<br/> on the flip side I don’t think it addresses CEQA
