DELEGATE LORENZO CURLEY
The intent of law is to clarifiy? But it’s getting me more confused. I see loopholes. I don’t know who is advising you, Mr. Shepherd. One hand talking about qualifications, grounds for removal, qualifications for officials during entire term but loophole in Section 240. You are making law more complicated. You said not taking anything away. But hear that prior law stricter. You saying teeth still there but I don’t see any teeth.
