Announcement

Statement on the recent controversy regarding the status of the at-large Senate seat currently held by Senator Bacon King:

As far as my understanding of Atlasian law goes, Sen. Bacon King cannot file suit unless his seat is deemed vacated, at which point he could sue alleging that he has been wrongly expelled from the Senate. If the seat is not vacated, there are no damages and thus no suit for him to file.

On the other hand, if an individual strongly believes that the Constitution or law is being violated by Sen. Bacon King remaining in the Senate, they may sue the President Pro Tempore (NCY) for improperly enforcing the rules of the Senate.

That is where things currently lay. I am disinclined to ask the Attorney General to file charges given the lack of clarity in the Senate rules and my personal weariness towards overturning the democratic will of the people, but any Atlasian is perfectly within their rights to sue on their own volition.

Thank you NCY for presenting this. I'm happy to get this last piece of game reform in before the buzzer. Between this and my administration's work on the Northeast elections crisis and Kal's final reforms to the Wiki, I feel quite pleased with the way this administration is leaving.

Mr. President Purple " I think the Constitution requires the Senate to hold a 2/3's vote to remov a dead body from the membership" State,


This has passed.

Tired indeed, you linked to a bill I already signed.

Anyway, I've already responded in two separate threads to this silly argument, but yes, the Senate needs a two-thirds vote to remove a sitting senator from office. Otherwise a majority of the Senate could amend the OSPR to vacate seats held by members of a certain party, which I imagine you would not approve of.
