Editorial

An aphorism often attributed to Mark Twain states that “History doesn’t repeat itself, but it does rhyme.” Readers of a certain age will, as I do, recall the upheavals of the 1960s and early ’70s.

This measure lands on the ballot after legislation to push it forward passed both houses of the State Legislature in two successive terms.
