I'm not going to speculate about legislation that I haven't seen before.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
What I have come to realize over the twenty years when I have worked in different roles as a legislator is that no legislation is as good as the enforcement of it.
The world is not going to be saved by legislation.
It's hardly a radical idea to suggest that regulators and legislators understand the law now, is it?
As attorney general, I can either look into it or I can ignore it because they're a bunch of powerful legislators... and I'm afraid they're going to cut my budget.
It is very difficult to get legislation passed. But then the danger always is that you have no power at all if you do not exercise constant power.
You do not examine legislation in the light of the benefits it will convey if properly administered, but in the light of the wrongs it would do and the harms it would cause if improperly administered.
While legislation obviously is political, we now have allowed regulation to become politicized, which we believe will likely lead to some bad outcomes.
What I learned is that policymakers have to force consideration of actions that may not have occurred to them at the time.
Good legislation should bring clarity and not confusion.
Historically, Congress hasn't paid much attention to the confines the Constitution establishes.
