SENATE BILL: Anti-Conscription Amendment (Failed)

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Wait, what about my already passed Amendment?  Would this Amendment overturn mine?

Yes it would.

I think from now on we should require that all amendment sponsors update their texts as the bill is modified to reflect such changes, on penalty of having them tossed if they fail to do so.

Gentlement we are voting on this, just for clarification. I was on my dad's laptop on Friday and I was constantly getting session timed out and the modification to the topic line didn't go through. He then started bugging me about wanting to go to sleep and I didn't want it put it my room because that is way of getting rid of stuff permenently and I don't have room for it, so to make a long story short, it got forgotten about.

You mean IRL? Or here?

I am considering tossing Wormyguy's amendment on grounds that it is functionally impractical and thus frivolous. I will give him a chance to convince me otherwise or alter the text. There is also an objection period to that and I don't have a direct link to the OSPR saved on a handy notepad like I do on the T3302.

And how would you police it to ensure accuracy?

And how would you police it to ensure accuracy?

Well, it'd be part of registration, so I'd assume the Registrar General would do so?

How not who? Is homely going to send of team of Frank Cannons and Jim Rockfords to investigate the RL people who register to find out if the information is truthfull?

If they make it all up upon registration what's the point? Everyone will either lie or leave the game who is not a veteran.

That is why it is impractical. There is no way to make this work.

ah yes, it is great to be back in the saddle again with all the necessary resources at my disposal.

A motion to table the underlying legislation has been filed with the clerk and the requisite second has been offered by another sitting Senator. A vote is thus now open on the question of whether or not to table the underlying legislation, Senators please vote Aye, Nay or Abstain.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Vote on the question of whether or not to table the current bill, the Anti-Conscription Amendment and move on with the next item in the queue:

Aye (5): AndrewPA, Ben, ILV, Scott, and Seatown
Nay (3): Clarence, TJ in Cleve and Wormyguy
Abstain (0):

Didn't Vote (2): NC Yankee and sbane - You despicable turkeys

With 2/3rds of those Senators voting having not voted in the affirmative, the bill is not tabled and debate resumes.
