[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Okay, 24 hours here of course.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Polnut, have you contacted Sirnick yet about it then?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

I can waive the bs, and then if need to not start the vote until Sirnick gets back with the information.


I as UC to waive the minimum debate and cloture requirement, Senators have 24 hours to object.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Time is just about up, where the hell is that data?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

So the the waiting path has been selected.


...but the waiting is that hardest part, man.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

So without the independent budget having been completed. Is it feasible to even attain a cost report in the near future?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Ah, well?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

When is that work going to be occuring?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Someone a bit more fluent in Atlasian Social Security and Healthcare is going to have to help with funding, but we should begin by striking the funding part of the bill for the moment being.

I would recommend Shua.

Is "withdrawal from the workforce" inherent in the definition of "primary carer"?

If not, we would need to reword the bill. It is currently ambiguous.

I PMed, Maxwell, Nappy and Polnut directly. Nappy because he is the sponsor, Polnut because he wrote and Maxwell because his objection prevents a final vote should a collective decision be made to give it up. Therefore all three should be participating in the debate.

Our biggest hindrence is that we failed to complete the independent budget for the SSA and so both this and the second mental Health bill are going to have severe problems determinining costs and funding.

As for your question, Polnut would be best positioned to answer. I would recommend PMing him directly about that question since mine was a generic, "please for heaven's sake follow the debate PM".

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

People be reasonable here? Can this bill be fixed in the immediate future, or it should it be tried again later, hopefully once the independent budget is done. I am not seeing a lot of work being done here, if somethign is going on in the background, then great, but we really need some movement here and soon.
