Ah, yes. I think you're right. I guess I read through that list of Commission powers, and it looked to me to be FAR more significant than what I've observed in interactions between the Commission, WDFW, and the Legislature, so I figured it was new. Makes total sense, given the context of the bill, that (5) is the whole reason for Section 2's inclusion.

Yup. It's what we thought it was: "Sovereign" governments giving the Washington public the middle finger, with support from our elected officials. The "Representatives" backing this should be tried for treason. Instead, they'll get awards for their dedication to "citizens' rights."
