HB 1187: Act to Preserve and Cherish Native Atlasian Culture (Passed)

[RFayette]

I sponsor this bill

[RFayette]

I support this bill because preserving the language and culture of Atlasia's ethnic groups indigenous to this nation is important.  The amount of money seems very reasonable and the goal good to help keep these languages and traditions alive in the schoolrooms. 

[RFayette]

OK, I propose an amendment.
Amendment:  Paying for Museum

In order to pay for this proposal, a $15 admission fee should be levied for admission to the museum.

     Thank you for taking this up. Where in the bill should this slot? A Section 1, Clause 3 would be a natural choice, but I leave this up to you to determine.

Sounds good to me.

[RFayette]

Yeah, it's all based on projected museum attendance, though I think this has never been fully investigated.

How about free year pass for investing into the start-up costs?

     There would need to be an amendment to edit the text to reflect reduced operating costs after year one, followed by a motion to suspend PayGo for the uncovered portion of the bill.

     It also occurs to me that you may have meant offering a year's pass as a reward to people who will invest in supporting the startup cost of the museum. Either way, we still have some big funding question marks.

Yeah, I intended for the tickets to help offset some of the building costs as well as maintain continuing operation.  There is some uncertainty due to us not having a perfect estimate of attendance.

I like this change
