Welcome to the new Northeast Assembly floor.  The other thread will be closed due to the new reply limit.

Business can begin after the Representatives take their oaths of office on Thursday and elect a new Speaker. Smiley

I believe so.  That, or until a candidate has a majority.  I suppose one more day won't make a huge difference, but I certainly hope we don't end up with a lackluster session...

Quote from: Northeast Representative Alfred F. Jones on December 31, 2012, 05:51:06 AM
Does Cincy count as a Representative or the people for purposes of his bill? I'd say Representative, but...

Cincinnatus's term expired, so he counts as a member of the people now.

The Constitution says that the Lieutenant Governor takes over the Governor, but not the Speaker.  Yes, he opens the session, but that's all, unfortunately.  I think we might have to take a break, but I wish Alfred had put the farm bill to a vote before he left.

Now might be a good time to consider new legislation to propose.  Maybe we can review the SOAP like bore suggested.

I feel like there should be a way for the citizens to make their voices heard, but I suppose they can already do that with the Assembly thread (as I don't believe it excludes non-Representatives) and by contacting members of their government, so I don't think it matters a whole lot whether we keep it in there, especially since I'm sure no one would be interested in digging it back up.

What do you guys think of abolishing the Budget Committee and reserving unlimited debate time for the tri-annual budget, instead?  Then the Assembly could vote to invoke cloture by a simple majority after discussion ceases.  I think that's a better idea than creating a four-person committee to handle these matters, anyway.

Maybe I'm reading this wrongly, but surely the capital amendment has passed, as it got three quarters of the voting members of the assembly (as hockeydudes vote was out of time).

I checked the Constitution on this last night and interpreted it differently, but as I look at it now, it looks like you could be right.  It passed with 2/3 of voting members supporting it and a majority of the body as a whole, so unless there's a problem with how we're reading it, I think I'll be able to put it on the ballot next month...

WHERE THE HELL IS HOCKEY??!!??!!??!!??

I know for sure he's missed at least 3 votes, so he's definitely been expelled. He may have not technically been an Assemblyman for a while.

Anyway, Scott's gonna have to find a replacement. Or maybe he'll just wait it out until we have five new winners in the election.

We can only expel members if they've missed three consecutive votes, unfortunately, and I don't believe HockeyDude ever did.

I'd extend voting time.  There shouldn't be a tie, as we do have five members because bore was appointed to fill Napoleon's seat.  I'll be cracking the whip pretty soon if no one else votes, though...

I second Senator Nix's opinion.  We need an active Assembly.

Mr. Speaker, please put a vote to any bills due for them (such as the education bill) ASAP.  I would like the amendment I proposed to be debated and voted on before the election next week.

Don't fall behind on your duties.
