If a company is providing services for the government, I think it's reasonable to expect them to uphold some of Atlasia's foreign policy goals if they want to keep providing that service. Seems good to me.

One part of a strong, functional Atlasian government is having laws on the books that make it clear what's right and wrong conduct. I'm happy to sponsor what was our president's bill from the House because this would eliminate conflicts of interest that might occur with overseas business. If you wish to enter into a contract with a foreign entity, you have to make sure they won't threaten the goals of Atlasia or our allies. I hope that the Senate passes this so that we continue to promote accountability.

I'm taking over for Scott as PPT for the next few days and I'm not great at the whole procedural end of things, but I'll do my best. I think PiT has dibs on that end for this bill, but if not, I can open a vote when debate is satisfactorily concluded.

     Usually I just run my threads and Scott runs his. Not sure that that is the best way to do it, but it's how I learned.

     There haven't been any comments in a couple of days now. If nobody has objections we can proceed to a final vote in 24 hours, though I will note that only half of the Senate has commented on this bill.

I support this bill. Disassociating from businesses that boycott our allies is smart foreign policy.
