I look forward to hearing the sponsor's argument for this bill.

My questions:
- What evidence is there that the Muslim Brotherhood has caused for the destruction of Atlasia?
- In recent years, what terrorist activities has the Muslim Brotherhood engaged in?
- How do you think this bill will affect Atlasia's perception in the Middle East?

Thank you for your answers, Representative Classic. It is appreciated.

One follow-up question: why now? From your information, the last threat was over 20 years ago. Why is it important that we designate the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist group today?

Personally, I'm not a big expert on this subject so would be OK with switching me out with another senator with more expertise, if anyone is willing.

If there is a strong desire to have me on this committee, I will serve. I'd also personally be very comfortable with Southern Gothic being on it. Though to my understanding, this committee's actions won't decide anything. It'll just present the facts and then Congress/President will still have the ultimate say.

With no objections, SouthernGothic has been added to replace me. Senators now may vote on the President's redraft.

The redraft has passed, and pending the House and presidents formal approval, will be officially enacted.
