When the UCP uses the notwithstanding clause tomorrow, watch defenders say, "it's totally legal" or "we had no choice."
They're deflecting.
The UCP wants to exact as much harm on transgender folks as possible. And they know their actions are not justifiable in a democratic society.

Oil executive Tom Ragsdale walked away from his old wells, making the pollution left behind the state of New Mexico’s problem. His tactics, however, are ubiquitous in the industry.

Just like Putin's buildup on the border of Ukraine in 2022, you can't deploy massive amounts of firepower and military personnel and keep them hanging around for a long time.
You have a shortish window to either use them or send them home.
