Attorney Yeh Ching-yuan was appointed as a legal consultant by the Keelung City Government on July 3, 2024. The Kuomintang parliamentary caucus proposed an amendment to the 'Public Officials Election and Recall Act' to raise recall thresholds and held a public hearing titled ‘Improving the Practice Status of the Public Officials Election and Recall Act’ on the same day. Yeh Ching-yuan emphasized that the legislation should focus on the legality of amendments rather than personal recall actions, ensuring that the recall process does not allow minority votes to overturn majority decisions. This event spurred discussions about the necessity of reevaluating recall thresholds and procedures to uphold democratic principles.
