Amendment has been adopted

Sorry but this language is a nightmare. "Medical purposes"? What does this even mean?

My suggestion would be this, with the final sentence should read... "The amendments to regional laws should make clear that the only exceptions provided for should be those on medical grounds. Where a doctor has certified that a specific mandatory vaccination would lead to serious negative physical and medical outcomes." or something along those lines.

I would support the change if offered as an amendment.

I motion for a final vote, assuming the previous amendment has gone through.

I am a Senator. I swore in after being appointed to the position. If you take issue with that, I suggest you file a lawsuit.

     The last sentence of the amendment is ungrammatical. I understand Speaker Cris is a nonnative speaker and I'm not trying to be difficult, but I am not certain what it is saying in context. Tongue

I inserted in the amendment the same words that Polnut said in this post Tongue

I'd also like to say it's discouraging that despite quickly agreeing on the bill, it took over a month to open a final vote. Obviously, Blair's resignation slowed us down, but, while Cris' is doing a great job as the Speaker, we're really slow nowdays. We need to get faster.
