Bored in Office

1. Since taking office, X has signed numerous pieces of progressive legislation such as ethics reform, death penalty reform, a state Earned Income Tax Credit, a statewide comprehensive smoking ban and expansions of health programs like KidCare and FamilyCare (the latter ruled unconstitutional). X signed a bill in 2005 that prohibited discrimination based on sexual orientation in employment, housing, public accommodations, and credit. During a suspected shortage of the flu vaccine, X ordered 260,000 doses from overseas distributors, which the FDA had warned would be barred from entering _______. Although the vaccine doses had cost them $2.6 million, the FDA refused to allow them into the country, and a buyer could not be found; they were donated to earthquake survivors in Pakistan a year later. After X pushed for a law banning sales of certain video games to minors, a federal judge declared the law violated the First Amendment, with the state ordered to pay $520,000 in legal fees.
