IDS 2: Environmental Act (failed override)

[Donerail]

Aye

[Flake]

So it's 3-2 Abstain/Aye... so.. does the redraft fail?

[Maxwell]

It requires three votes, so yes, I think the redraft fails and now the original bill is on my desk awaiting my signature.

[Dereich]

I'm against fuel standards rising at a higher pace than they currently are and believe that renewable resources are subsidized enough in Atlasia as it is. Because I didn't support either proposal, I abstained. I'm not sure why the others who voted aye in the first place did though.

[Maxwell]

As your emperor, I believe that the IDS should be enviormentally sound. However, due to the market and the way we subsidize green technologies, I believe we are already fast on the way to reneweable resources. This bill is beyond harmful to businesses. I tried to compromise on the issue, but seeing as my re-draft was rejected, I can not, in good conscience, sign this bill, as it does too much damage to the economy that is already in huge trouble. This would not help with our 11% unemployment.

This receives my veto. You can decide to over-ride my veto or not Flo.

[Flake]

I'd like to override the veto.

Legislators, please vote Aye, Nay, or Abstain on the first bill you voted on.

Just for reminders sake.

Sorry if I missed it, but was there a cost projection done on this bill?

There was not, but we are out a GM, so since a vote is already open, here we are.

[Yelnoc]

Abstain, since I don't know what the numbers mean.

[Flake]

Aye

[Pingvin]

Aye

[Dereich]

Nay

[Dixie Reborn]

Aye

[Maxwell]

With all votes in, it's 3-1-1 in favor, but it requires 3/4ths of the vote to override.

[Flake]

Ugh, well that ends my tenure on a low note. I'd like to thank all of you for voting and it was such a pleasure serving with y'all in the legislature. I'm resigning from the legislature, and I hope y'all the best.
