Debate on this bill will last for 72 hours, or until 6:05 PM on Sunday, September 14, unless modified or extended. The sponsor has 36 hours to advocate for this proposed legislation. If he does not, this bill will be tabled as there is other pending legislation in the queue.

[Talleyrand]

My hope with this bill to see some serious action in regard to preserving our endangered plants and animals in the Northeast Region. We've seen many bills regarding the protection of the environment in all of Atlasia, but not many of these.

This bill, by setting aside over a $1 billion each year in grants for conservation of these species, including the iconic North Atlantic right whale, ensures that we will be doing something meaningful in the aforementioned regard, and thus stem the decline of these plants and animals.

Any questions/concerns, anyone?

Any questions/concerns, anyone?

Any chance we can get a rider that actively seeks to destroy poison ivy?

Well, since it's a native plant, I'd have to oppose that on principle, but if people want to attach a rider to combat invasive species or something like that, I would support it.
