Moving Power to the States

There is no doubt that Washington has its bureaucrats, but what it doesn’t have is a commanding majority of the right-wing extremists we find in the red states. There is precious little support in Congress, and even less in the electorate, for the federal criminalization of abortion, teaching creationism as science, or an energy policy that guarantees the consumption of fossil fuels in perpetuity, and the slow death of most of the Earth’s life forms.

If DeSantis gets his way, we’ll have certain regions of the United States that are among the most backwards and regressive on Earth.
