I find your changes agreeable Yankee, but my only change would be the 120 Hour vote go to 72 Hour vote, if only for the reason I think we should start to universalize vote times.

I would tend to agree - we did this a while back in the Mideast and it greatly simplified things.

We should definately keep that in mind as we continue to reform the OSPR.

Also Final Vote once this amendment finishes.

The lack of participation - the same three people made every single post currently in this thread. Go figure.

Personally, I'd prefer a three-day minimum absence for revoking sponsorship and a five-day minimum absence for expulsion, but even this would be a massive improvement over the toothless rules under which the Senate has been operating for years.

Well our current kind of awkward amendment we have has seven days, so that's what I am trying to line it up with. Maybe the next project is a repeal of said amendment.

Considering how the impeachment process works, I think it would be better to amend the Expectations Amendment. I wouldn't want to remove the minimum activity requirements that it establishes for the President, the Vice President, and the Supreme Court.

Fair enough.

This has enough votes to pass, Senators have 24 hours to change their votes.

I wouldn't call it toothless. We did expell Worms, BK (twice as I recall), Barnes and MoPolitico in the last two years or so.

True, but in each case the absentee Senator was only subject to expulsion long after everyone knew that they were gone for good.

And thus why they weren't partisan votes. Remember you still need 2/3rds vote to be expelled and the shorter the time the more likely it become a party or clique thing shielding them. Which would be toothless.

Now that ole style way, the one that nabbed DWTL. Now that was teeth. You msised the days and no LOA, you were just gone. No vote, nothing.
