A law is up for a vote that sounds perfectly reasonable, and yet there is a hidden rider on it that makes the whole document. Just saying. Need more details.

You do understand, I think, that this has nothing to do with documentation in Congress or the Florida legislature and that Bondi is not a Representative nor a Senator? She never voted on this. She was never asked to vote on this. She never could have voted on this. There are no secret riders in the document. And the paperwork used to prepare the law, or document has nothing to do with defending the final form of the law passed by our legislature and signed by Governor Scott with her support.
She is the head lawyer for the state, the Attorney General. Her job is to in part defend the laws of the state if they are challenged in court, unless she believes that there is a very good reason not to do so. Example. Florida has a law prohibiting gay marriage. The SCOTUS rules all such laws are unconstitutional. She then declines to defend our law even if it is still on the books.
But this law, which she said was important and needed and constitutional and that she would defend all the way to the SCOTUS, she missed a filing deadline required for that appeal and when asked why had no comment nor explanation.
