Tbh I agree! But even more than that, it deserves better than having to hide itself behind antiquated statutes about “habitual drunkards” 😂

My only fear is that by making it so clear she might scare her conservative colleagues into veering back towards history-and-tradition, whereas they might never have noticed otherwise

Very interesting to warn state officials that they’re risking personal liability. (Unlike their federal partners in lawbreaking, they are not protected by qualified immunity, as the court here points out)
