The Imperial Dominion of the South's Legislature

[Yelnoc]

Yelnoc is now speaker, so let's get going!

Thanks Maxwell, I've bumped the two bills currently under consideration.

The following bills were submitted by Flo to the legislature, but now lack a sponsor. Is anyone interested in sponsoring any of these bills?

I'll sponsor the Women's Health Act.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Maybe testing our students could be worked into a program for the poor to have better access to those tests, but otherwise I'm not really happy about subsidizing people who can afford to take the SAT. A lot of colleges are going away from the test anything, and I don't know if the regional government needs to be subsidizing the College Board.  They have enough money.

[Dereich]

I'll spomsor the Testing our Students Act. It needs work but could be made useful

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

I'll sponser the Taxpayer Reciept Act

This is an amendment by the feds, and needs to be brought up for debate/vote.

[Dereich]

I move to expel Speaker Yelnoc.

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

I move to expel Speaker Yelnoc.

Seconded

[Dereich]

While we're doing this there's nothing preventing us from concurrently electing a new speaker. Anyone interested in the position?

[Maxwell]

I am interested.

[Maxwell]

This is not where legislation is introduced.

Here is the Legislation introduction thread

[Dereich]

Seeing no more nominations, legislators please vote for your next speaker. This vote will close in 48 hours or when all have voted.

Wouldn't y'all like to vote to expel Speaker Yelnoc?

[Maxwell]

Wouldn't y'all like to vote to expel Speaker Yelnoc?

It does seem like we need to do that first.

[Dereich]

There is nothing preventing us from doing both at once; we can choose our own officers so he's only speaker until we elect a new one. I was planning on just getting 4 statements from the legislators in favor of expulsion to go more quickly, but looking at the constitution it seems a proper vote IS required. So I'll start that immediately.

Legislators have 48 hours or until all have voted to choose whether or not to expel Yelnoc from the legislature. Please vote yes or no.

Should Yelnoc be expelled from the Imperial Legislature?

[] Yes
[] No

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

[Maxwell]

[Dereich]

With a unanimous vote of the legislature, Yelnoc is expelled.

With 4 votes Maxwell is elected Speaker of the Imperial Legislature.

[Flake]

I'd like to say that I'm extremely happy that we have a new person that will be stepping up to be the next legislator to fill out the remainder of Yelnoc's term!

I'd like to appoint badgate to the legislature of the Imperial Dominion of the South!

Congratulations!

[Flake]

Bump

Y'all need a speaker
