In this episode Rob talks about the Fargo Forum and others criticizing Republican lawmakers for their bill implementing Measure 1, which was approved in the 2018 election. But the Forum editorialized against Measure 1 during the election. Now they're lashing out at lawmakers for supposedly watering down the measure, and disrespecting the will of voters. But if the voters approved bad policy, are lawmakers obligated to implement it?
Also state Rep. Jake Blum talks about his legislation which would raise speed limits on North Dakota's highways and interstates.
