Chair, I appreciate the latitude. I'm about to move to the “therefore”.
Therefore, in my view and my submission to you, this is out of order because it's moot. The rules that the government is saying were broken couldn't have been broken since BOIE had to change the rules to make what was currently being done outside the rules.
Why would we hold a hearing about something that did not violate the rules, was not wrong, and immediately upon the rules being changed, we said that, of course, we would respect them and adopt that? Why are we even allowing this motion, given that there is no issue? There is no infraction.
