Regulatory Review Thread (Locked)

[Lumine]

As per the recently passed Regulatory Overhaul and Review Act, this thread is now open for citizens to present federal regulations that they wish to repeal, and after 24 hours we Senators are bound to vote on whether to repeal it or not. I'll leave the final text of the mentioned act to avoid any misunderstandings:

Shouldn't we vote on these one at a time?

Indeed, sorry, I've been rather distracted and college has made it difficult to handle Senate affairs. We will start voting on the first one then, "General Provisions". Senators, please vote Aye, Nay or Abstain.

[Deus Naturae]

Alright, you've made your point. Even at this point I'm willing to admit this wasn't a great idea. Plus, after I've actually started thinking about them, I'd rather have my deregulation bills discussed separately.

[Lumine]

I'll vote Nay, then. This will be extended for some time to allow the Senators to vote, but it is a bit evident this is having several problems...

[bore]

Nay

(Can I suggest Nix withdraws the suggestions and then we can just let this die and repeal it as soon as practicable?)

[Dr. Cynic]

I just knew this was going to cause problems.

Nay

[TNF]

Nay

[Lumine]

More than 48 hours have passed and the Nay's have won. We will not start voting on the second category, Grants and Agreements. Senators, please vote Aye, Nay or Abstain.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

ABSTAIN

There's a reason I wanted nothing to do with this thing.

[Dr. Cynic]

Nay again. I just knew this would be a waste of the Senate's time.

[TNF]

Nay

[Lumine]

Nay.

[MyRescueKittehRocks]

Abstain

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

I Guess Nay is the only possible answer given this format

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Changing to NAY - just so I can make clear how much of a waste of time this thing was.

[Lumine]

Right, the vote on the second category has failed. We will now vote on the third one: "The President". Senators, please vote Aye, Nay or Abstain.

[Dr. Cynic]

Nay again.

[TNF]

Nay

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

NAY

I'm sure the people of Atlasia are pleased to know we are continuing to waste our time on this.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

If I vote Aye, does that make Cranberry dictator.

[Lumine]

Bumping, but only to inform that the original law has been repealed and this thread is hereby closed.
