Harry Potter look out, governments have the magic pens that by having legislation magical things happen.Just like Harry Potter this is a work of fiction. One cannot legislate behavior. One cannot turn things around. Take the New York City school system, legislation 50 years ago forced integrated on the schools. It didn’t go fast enough, New legislation, it got worse. More legislation, the school system is the most segregated that it has ever been.
We believe that legislation brings about justice reform, there have been legislative reforms year after year, but things are getting worse.
The presidents of the United States use executive signings ( unconstitutionally I might add) of what generally suppose to happen, it doesn’t all the time.
What I’m trying to say just signing a piece of paper doesn’t change things, hard work does.
