Bullsh**t!


The Federalist Majority House, passed it back in April:
Vote on Final House Passage of the Voting Rights Amendment:

Aye (9): Drew, Enduro, Heisenberg, NC Yankee, OneJ_, Peebs, Potus, Simossad (technically too late), and Ted
Nay (0):
Abstain (0):

Didn't vote (0):

The Resolution has passed the House and is sent to the Senate/VP.  

Which Peebs should know, since that was back when she still voted regularly.

Tell your Laborite friends to get off their asses in the Senate. Tongue

Actually, I see now, they amended Truman's original text at the beginning of June, removing the prohibition on the ban on campaigning in the voting booth, against the advice of myself and Truman if memory serves me.


So better yet, tell them to stop obstructing Truman's flawlessly beautiful texts. Tongue

The constitution mandates that the President of Congress administers returning amended bills and there is a bunch of Senate bills that need to come before the House.

There is however nothing that mandates a certain order so the best I can do is have Goldwater bring it up in the next House VP administered slot that comes open.

So why it has not been passed?

Because Scott, 20RP12 and Siren voted to remove the line that banned campaigning in the voting booth from the above amendment, despite my warnings not to. Tongue

Otherwise this would probably be passing ratification this weekend or last weekend.

It would be ironic if this amendment were to be adopted without objection and the underlying result is that the underlying Amendment returns to the House and gets killed there just like the previous one got killed in the Senate. Tongue

Which made no sense because the basis for said amendment to the amendment was that "it had previously been done", which I established it had not been.

And I warned of the Consequences of taking said action in terms of delay and potential failure, and yet it is Yankee and the Federalists fault for delaying this? Tongue

You'd think people would have figured this out by now, but alas. Wink

Seems like I am the only one who listens to you anymore. Tongue

I know this might be a little off topic, but am I reading it right. People are allowed to campaign in the voting booths?

well there is a toothless statute on the matter, but the court ruled it violated the constitution's right to vote provision.

Truman's original text of the Voting Rights Amendment had that in it, but it was voted out by 3 Senators (Scott, R2D2 and Siren) because "it had already been done previously". And even though I previously pointed out that it hadn't, the amendment was still adopted.

Present vote is 8-0 and time expires tomorrow on the vote.
