Sponsor: Scott

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Another Jake Matthews bill, hopefully one that finally wont cause hell for the President.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

I would strongly encourage the refraining from engaging in conductor un becoming of Senate decorum when engaging in debate on the Senate floor. This applies to both sitting Senators and respected statemen who aren't Senators but are engaging in the discourse on the matter of a pending bill.

Senator NC Yankee,
President Pro-Tempore.


Now can I please get a god damn sponsor for this damn bill. It takes 72 hours to assign sponsorship to someone.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

If I don't have a volunteer to be sponsor in the next 24 hours I am trashing this on the grounds that it was introduced illegally.


Yes I can do that, I think. Just someone volunteer so we don't have to find out.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Senators have 72 hours to object to Senator Scott's assumption of Sponsorship.


I hope you aren't at your limit of three yet.

The other two sponsorless bills better see someone else step forward. You can't let the Senator from the NE do all the work/hog all the fun (depending on your perspective).

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

I do apologize for the hogging.  I have a thing for stray bills, is all.

Oh no. That was strategic to strike both the inactives compassion and anger at the same time to get them take action and do there damn jobs.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

I doubt any one has any objection...

Can I move to bypass the 72 hours or simply reduce it? I don't think we need three damn days for this...we'll be clogged worse then Christie's toilet after he returns from a Mexican joint

There is no way to waive this particular 72 hours. For both withdrawals and assumptions of sponsorship, 72 hours must be given to object, and I didn't include it in the UC provision because I was concerned about passage as it was last year.

Way back in the day, I was giving only 24 hours and Bacon "I have patented violation of the OSPR" King said I couldn't do that.

We can continue to debate amendments and even vote on amendments while that 72 hours is winding down, that is legal.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Seeing no objection, Scott has assumed sponsorship.

Mr. President, do you support my amendment or wish to make any changes?

I'm surprised this didn't come to a vote yet.

I have lost my horns, and I can't do much till they are re-acquired.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Senators have 24 hours to object to Senator Scott's amendment.


Senator Clarence, is that to be interpreted as an objection to the amendment?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Well technically you were explaining a previous post, since that post pre-dates the objection period, rather then coming after it therefore I will accept the objection.


Amendment vote, probably tomorrow.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

What the hell, amendment adopted.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Are we ready for a final vote here?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Senators, this bill is now at final vote so please vote Aye, Nay or Abstain.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

This bill has enough votes to pass, Senators have 24 hours to change their votes.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Damn it, just a little too late. Damn this site and its slows



Aye (6): AndrewCT, Clarence, ILV, Sbane, Scott, and Seatown
Nay (2): TJ in Cleve and Wormyguy
Abstain (0):

Didn't Vote (2): Ben and NC Yankee

With six votes in the affirmative, this bill has passed and is presented to the President for executive action.
