SENATE BILL: Let The Regions Get Their Highway Money Act (Law'd)

[🐒Gods of Prosperity🔱🐲💸]

I'm going to have to object to that. We shouldn't be forcing blood tests on people.

[President Tyrion]

It was in the original bill, and it's the best form of testing. It's extremely callous toward the issue to suggest that blood testing is anything less.

[🐒Gods of Prosperity🔱🐲💸]

To clarify, are regions be able to restrict the demand of an officer for a blood test under this? If so, I will remove my objection.

I would like to remove my objection if possible.  I will be offering an amendment to this to address the issue.

Amendment to be placed at the end of section 2:

I appreciate the sentiment of removing the objection, but I find the amendment hostile.

Blood testing is rendered inert by a warrant. In the time that it takes to get a warrant, the alcohol might have already left the suspect's system.

The same could be said of any evidence that would normally require a warrant to obtain (i.e. what if the suspect destroys the evidence in the meantime), but the truth is obtaining a warrant can be done fairly quickly with modern communications.

It's not really the same thing when you remove any opportunity for probable cause.

Well you have a point even if I still believe strongly a warrant should be required.  But I want the other part of my amendment and this bill as a whole to pass, so maybe this isn't the best vehicle for it.  I'll just go with this instead:

I left the text change indicators since we are amending previous laws in stated fashion.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Senators, a final vote is now open on the underlying legislation, please vote Aye, Nay or Abstain.

[President Tyrion]

Well, technically some of that text isn't indicative of the changes we made. The word "blood" was there in the original bill, for example. In any case, we're replacing the whole text, so whatever.
