What is it about?

A bill to remove district attorneys who fail to prosecute certain types of crimes passed the Texas House last Friday. The bill would allow a resident to petition against a district attorney if the top prosecutor takes blanket-policies not to prosecute certain crimes or politically-charged offences. Texas says some district attorneys wouldn't prosecute controversial crimes related to abortion, elections, and gender-affirming treatments for minors.

A bill to remove district attorneys who fail to prosecute certain types of crimes passed the Texas House last Friday. The bill would allow a resident to petition against a district attorney if the top prosecutor takes blanket policies not to prosecute certain crimes or politically-charged offenses. Texas says some district attorneys wouldn't prosecute controversial crimes related to abortion, elections, and gender-affirming treatments for minors.

1. This is the correct spelling.
This sounds like an interesting development. Can you explain more about the types of crimes that are included in the bill and why some district attorneys may not want to prosecute them?

The bill doesn't name specific offenses, but it will include crimes related to abortion, elections, and gender-affirming care for minors. Some prosecutors said they wouldn't prosecute those crimes. This would be considered an official misconduct under the bill and could be grounds for removal from office. The reason why they don't want to prosecute these crimes is a kind of power struggle between the state and local governments. Prosecutors in big cities, who are mostly Democrats, defend abortions or families seeking gender reassignment health care for their children.

1. This article was redundant here.
It seems like this bill has a political aspect to it, with Republicans seeking to hold local district attorneys accountable for not prosecuting certain crimes that align with their values. It will be interesting to see how this bill progresses and what impact it may have on the legal system. Have any other states in the US proposed similar bills?

The same goes for the blue states. They have recently been seeking a de facto ban on gas stoves in future buildings. Next, in order to fight climate change and stay fit, we may have to ban the consumption of beef and eat plant-based meat produced by Bill Gates instead. Similar laws have already been passed in Georgia, Missouri, Indiana and Florida.

1. Here's an alternative 'lately'
  • government(政府、政治)
  • governor(州知事)
  • mayor(市長、町長)
  • resignation(辞任)
  • election(選挙)
  • Who do you think our next mayor will be?(次の州知事は誰になると思いますか。)
  • Do you think he will raise our taxes again?(あなたは彼がまた税金を上げると思いますか。)
  • Are you satisfied with our new governor?(あなたは新しい州知事に満足していますか。)
  • When are we having the next election?(次の選挙はいつですか?)
  • I can't trust the government anymore.(もう政府のことが信頼できません。)
