Show Notes
Four sheriffs from eastern Washington counties have filed a lawsuit against a new state law, Senate Bill 5974, which they deem unconstitutional. The law allows a governor-appointed board to decertify and remove elected sheriffs, a move the sheriffs argue undermines democracy and voter rights. The sheriffs, backed by prosecutors from their respective counties, are challenging the law in Pend Oreille Superior Court, aiming to preserve the direct voter voice in local law enforcement.
