I think we are protected. The legislature, if they choose that, they think they would rather come back for one day and fix that, then that is their prerogative. I would never tell leader Lafore and I would never tell leader Hogue how to utilize their days as a legislature, but I don't think I no longer have to do that. (23:53–24:02)

CLAIM
