The balls belonging to the people, who dare to oppose this act, should be mercilessly scratched.

There are two ways to do this, of which you have done neither as of yet. Tongue

You could offer an amendment that takes the entire clause or even the whole bill and modify it with the changes (which are writting in bold) and then offered as such.

Or you could offer and amendment that says something like this: "All instances of _____ are replaced with ________".

fine. Amendment in bold.



Feline Protection Act

1. A pair of SoftClaws will be given out with every cat adopted from an adoption center.
I. The federal government will subsidize SoftClaws Inc. to enable cat adopters to receive a free pair of SoftClaws for their adopted cats.
II. These SoftClaws will not be given out given the pet adopters who opts to have the cat declawed.
III. Then pet adopters must sign a waiver informing authorities of their choice on whether they will declawed their cat or not prior to taking it home.
IV. This procedure choice will be included in the paper work the owner must fill out prior to taking the cat home.
V. Should a cat adopter report scratching-related problems, the government shall provide a coupon guaranteeing 50% off any cat scratching boxes.

2. SoftClaws will be strongly suggested as an alternative to de-clawing cats who are not adopted.
I. SoftClaws will always cost half the price of declawing a cat.
II. The federal government will subsidize SoftClaws if the price of their product goes higher than fifty-percent less than the declawing procedure.
III. To help fund the program and further discourage declawing, there will be a $10 tax on each paw declawed.
