Why This Score

This is a routine, state-level economic policy action by a governor with no connection to federal constitutional mechanisms, institutional capture, or rights violations. It has minimal hype or distraction value, as it's a niche local story unlikely to dominate national discourse or redirect attention from federal accountability issues.
