Speaker O’Brien’s Ineffective Threats and Bribes

Kevin Landrigan reveals Speaker O’Brien has more threats and bribes in his arsenal to pressure GOP representatives to change their vote and override Gov. Lynch’s Right-to-Work veto.

The weapons at the speaker’s disposal include the two-year state budget, retirement reform and perhaps appointive spots on key conference committees that will thrash out conflicted bills.

It won’t work, says Landrigan.

Will that be enough to turn the tide? It doesn’t look like it.
