Secretary of Internal Affairs Abolition Act [Motion to Table]

[Lambsbread]

As somebody who has applied for the job under both President Tmthforu94 and now President-elect Polnut, I must say that I cannot support this bill. It is important that we have an SoIA or something along the lines of an SoIA, so we can keep the public as active and knowledgeable as possible. That being said, whomever fills the position has to be active in order for that to happen.

[Lambsbread]

Knowing what I know now, I think the person who will be holding this position next has amazing potential and should be given a fair chance. That being said, I ask the Senate to table this bill and reconsider it 2 months from now.

I introduce a motion to table, then.

Seconded.

[Lambsbread]

Aye.

Guys, stop shying away from solving problems just because you have no current solution. I hate to lecture people like this (though it's never stopped me before) but this position has been worthless and we've had no one in nearly 3 years that's done anything worthwhile in it. The idea that it will suddenly prove it's true worth in the next couple of months is insane. Tabling this will be a waste of time. Solve a problem, don't shove it under the rug.

Are you kidding me? How is this shying away? I for one believe the position is crucial to encouraging activity.

[Lambsbread]

I've applied for the position under President-elect Polnut and I'm fairly certain that I'm going to get it. I'm also certain that if I am given the job--which I would be honored to fill--I would be an active SoIA. Perhaps maybe someone like me is what the position needs. If you have an active SoIA, great things can happen. No one can guarantee activity. Every Senator and Governor and President campaigns, sure. But what about when they win? What happens when they go AWOL? We never know when it'll happen. You can't abolish a perfectly useful position (on paper)
