I’m not sure what this is “Ifn IRC SD”?
I’d like to read the actual language...

If it’ll get him elected in Mass, I don’t care what he “fights” for. He’s not going to get it, but he can say he fought for it.

So it would seem.
IIRC or If’n IRC the same.
SD = South Dakota
I believe they were two seperate bills that passed both houses of the legislature and then referred to the voters.
They were two to four years apart as I remember.
