Clarence and Ben, you guys have 24 hours to start talking here.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

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

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

The amendment has passed.

You are damn lucky Sbane, now I have to decide if your post on page 1 can be interpretted in such a way as to avoid a 72 hour objection period requirement.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Sbane's post indicates a desire to seek changes, so I will take that.


Okay, vote halted.

Amendment:

I could also introduce a bill for creation of an committee overseeing human right abuses in China by companies that export to Atlasia.

I'm not sure that I'm able to target a specific company unless it's run by a government, let alone target a certain factory complex. This'd probably be a separate bill, creating a committee or whatever you want to lay out.

As for Sbane's amendment, I think we have to accept Clarence's amendment first before we can consider Sbane's, as until Clarence's is accepted Palestine is not considered separately and thus Sbane's cannot be applied.

The only amendment that I have noted on this bill by Clarence has already been adopted prior to the abortive final vote. Sbane's amendment is currently under consideration. Both his and Seatown's need the feedback of the sponsor to move forward.

Ah; it was still on the amendment tracker in the noticeboard, so I assumed it hadn't.

That doesn't track the status just all amendments offered in the Senate.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Can you explain what does "NO VALID ENTRY!!!" means, and what would be an acceptable amendment in foreign policy review?

It has nothing to do with the texts of the amendments. It means the sponsor has yet to respond to the amendments regarding whether he sees them as "Friendly" or "Unfriendly". Friendly means they can be passed by simply allowing 24 hours to object to passage. Unfriendly provokes a vote.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Oh sponsor?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

What about Sbane's? It was entered first and therefore must be considered first?

I am going to enter an objection to Seatown's amendment based on the method by which it seeks to acheive the desired result.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

I'll offer an Amendment:

The status for Brazil, India, Mexico, Canada, and Turkey shall be changed to "Most Priority".  Yankee can format that properly

Who says I will?


Places gun on the table and starts to laugh in a sadistic fashion.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

We need to hold votes on Sbane's and Seatown's Amendments here. I had hoped that if Ben could restructure his garbage into something usefull we could get that to a position where it could either be passed or voted on.

Do Senators Sbane and Seatown still desire their amendments?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Damn, we are gonna have to do these one at a time.


Sbane's is first.

A quick correction, Sbane's amendmnet was actually number 49:05. 49:06 was Scott's amendment to the Mountain Top Removal Ban Act.
