” Sen. Ted Cruz introducing bill that will allow people to SUE state and local officials if they are HURT or HARMED during RIOTS... THOUGHTS?”

Cruz and Rand have been redeeming themselves.

Is there some reason why statre and local officials can’t be sued now, without this bill?

Good question. Maybe they don't have standing?
