Constitutional Amendment Explanation Act
1. New provisions shall be added to the Legislative Debates and Voting section of the SOAP as follows:
"13. The sponsor of any amendment to the Northeast Constitution shall, in addition to proposing the text of a proposed amendment, post in the relevant Legislative Slot an explanation as to why such proposed amendment is advisable.  This explanation shall be subject to debate on the floor of the Assembly.  However, the sponsor shall be the sole arbiter of what should be included in the statement and may reject amendments to the explanation.   
14.  Any other Northeast Representative may propose an explanation as to why the proposed amendment is not advisable.  This explanation shall be subject to debate on the floor of the Assembly.   However, that Northeast Representative shall be the sole arbiter of what should be included in the statement and may reject amendments to the explanation.
15.  When the amendment to the Northeast Constitution is put up for a vote, the Speaker shall restate the explanation(s) in addition to the text of the proposed amendment.  Voting shall solely be on the proposed amendment, not on the explanation(s)."

2. The Chief Judicial Officer or relevant person who opens up a voting booth that includes a proposed amendment to the Northeast Constitution shall post, either separately or in a combined Northeast Constitutional Amendment Explanation thread on the Atlas Fantasy Elections board, the explanation(s) for and against the proposed constitutional amendment.

3.  This Act shall go in force immediately upon passage.
