     I hereby open the floor for debate.

[Associate Justice PiT]

I don't have any problem with this law - it's important not because of the praising/criticizing amendment but because it creates an exemption for those residency and activity requirements that were invalidated by Cinyc v. North.

     Indeed, this is the crux of the amendment. I would suggest amending it to get rid of the campaigning clause as a possible compromise, but we have spent far too much time already trying to put together this much needed amendment.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     Senators have 24 hours to object to the amendment proposed by Senator Scott above.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     Senators, please vote aye, nay, or abstain on the amendment.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     Nay

[Associate Justice PiT]

     The amendment passes 3-2-1.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     If there are no more comments, I will open a final vote in 24 hours.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     I hereby open a final vote on this Amendment. Senators have 72 hours to vote aye, nay, or abstain.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     Aye

[Associate Justice PiT]

     Bumping this. We need more than two Senators voting on this thing.
