However, lawyers point out that reverting to amendments made just three years ago not only undermines the stability of the law but also risks raising suspicions of biased interpretations, making such a direction of amendment unlikely to gain public support. Amidst the political divide, it&#039;s rare to see a consensus on amendments, but convincing the public still seems to require further discussion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Attorney Li Yu-sheng of Fidelity Law Firm stated that the Public Officials Election and Recall Act of 2023 stipulates that those sentenced to imprisonment, even with probation, are still ineligible to run for office during the probation period. This is because even with probation, a conviction is still a criminal record, and therefore the integrity threshold for public officials should be maintained. However, only two or three years later, a legislator proposed amending the law to abolish this restriction. This short-term relaxation not only undermines legal stability but also easily raises questions about &quot;favoring certain individuals for specific purposes.&quot; Given society&#039;s expectations of high ethical standards for public officials, this direction of amendment is unlikely to gain public approval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<style>\n\/* \u5bb9\u5668\u8a2d\u5b9a\uff1aRWD \u97ff\u61c9\u5f0f\u6392\u7248 *\/\n.fd-cta-container {\n    display: flex;\n    justify-content: center; \/* \u5c45\u4e2d\u5c0d\u9f4a *\/\n    gap: 20px; \/* \u6309\u9215\u4e4b\u9593\u7684\u9593\u8ddd *\/\n    flex-wrap: wrap; \/* \u624b\u6a5f\u7248\u81ea\u52d5\u63db\u884c *\/\n    margin: 30px 0; \/* \u4e0a\u4e0b\u7559\u767d *\/\n    font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, \"Segoe UI\", Roboto, \"Helvetica Neue\", Arial, sans-serif;\n}\n\n\/* \u6309\u9215\u5171\u7528\u57fa\u5e95\u6a23\u5f0f *\/\n.fd-btn {\n    display: inline-flex;\n    align-items: center;\n    justify-content: center;\n    padding: 12px 32px;\n    font-size: 16px;\n    font-weight: 600;\n    text-decoration: none !important; \/* \u79fb\u9664\u5e95\u7dda *\/\n    border-radius: 50px; \/* \u5713\u89d2\u81a0\u56ca\u9020\u578b *\/\n    transition: all 0.3s ease; \/* \u5e73\u6ed1\u904e\u6e21\u6548\u679c *\/\n    letter-spacing: 1px; \/* \u5b57\u8ddd\u5fae\u8abf *\/\n    box-shadow: 0 4px 12px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1); \/* \u7cbe\u7dfb\u9670\u5f71 *\/\n    line-height: 1.2;\n    cursor: pointer;\n    position: relative;\n    top: 0;\n}\n\n\/* \u6309\u9215\u61f8\u6d6e (Hover) \u5171\u540c\u6548\u679c *\/\n.fd-btn:hover {\n    transform: translateY(-3px); \/* \u5411\u4e0a\u6d6e\u8d77 *\/\n    box-shadow: 0 8px 20px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.15); \/* \u52a0\u6df1\u9670\u5f71 *\/\n}\n\n\/* 1. \u96fb\u8a71\u6309\u9215\u98a8\u683c (\u6df1\u85cd\u8272\u5be6\u5fc3 - \u53f3\u5074) *\/\n.fd-btn-phone {\n    background: linear-gradient(135deg, #0f2b5c 0%, #1e3a8a 100%); \/* \u6df1\u85cd\u6f38\u5c64 *\/\n    color: #ffffff !important;\n    border: 2px solid transparent; \/* \u9810\u7559\u908a\u6846\u7a7a\u9593 *\/\n}\n\n.fd-btn-phone:hover {\n    background: linear-gradient(135deg, #163673 0%, #26469e 100%);\n    color: #ffffff !important;\n}\n\n\/* 2.
