For one thing we already have basically legal abortion barring extreme late term so all this would do is legalise them, and for another I'm convinced this is an issue like most social issues that should be left to the regions, for the sake of the game.

Senators, a vote is now open on bore's amendment, please vote aye nay or abstain:

[bore]

Also this:

motion to amend the bill by removing the following, and renumbering everything accordingly:

Section II: Clauses 1-6, 10
Section III: Clauses 1-6
Section IV: Clauses 1-6

These are clearly objectionable to almost everyone so let's clear them out and work backwards from there to figure out any sort of hate crime language that could pass.

Aye

Also do we still have motions for splitting bills because if so I'd like to do that for Section 1 and spin it off as a constitutional amendment

Since the previous ability to do so was not overtly present in the rules, it merely operated using certainly endorsed functions to achieve that objective if that makes sense. If you are referrign to what I pushed for regarding the Pacific (half bill, half amendment and the vote threshold becames the lowest amount necessary to pass the whole thing -2/3rds and the amendment half goes to the regions whilst the legislation goes to the President), then I would assume so as long as you amend in clear instructions as to which section goes where obviously.

Nix would  no better as to whether this implied ability is still present though.

Yeah, I'm almost certain that I cant start a new slot for a part of the bill, but if you want to make a part of it an amendment and have the other art not need 2/3rds that should be fine.
