SB 2018-177: Transparency is a Right Act (Passed)

[_]

I'll gladly sponsor this bill.

[_]

I'd be fine with Senator Pericles as a co-sponsor.

In regards to the Bill, I am fully supportive of this as it will ensure complete transparency of elected officials, and make sure every Atlasian can see how their Representative and Senator vote.  I also fully support the urging of Regional Legislatures to go through with the same process, and I hope all regions pass a bill similar to this as soon as possible.

[_]

I think the Senate is pretty unanimously in support of the Bill, and I'd like to motion for a vote if there's no objections.

[_]

Actually, I think we're missing something. What exactly is the punishment? We say officeholders "must" comply, but I'm not sure if the consequences are clear here given the current case before the Supreme Court.

Perhaps we might add a clause regarding officeholders who break this particular bill should be considered as having grounds to be impeached or charged with a crime?

Perhaps punishment can be that if they break the bill they should immediately be put to a special election?  That way the people can be the jury and decide the lawmaker's fate?

[_]

I fully approve of this amendment

[_]

If there are no further objections or concerns, I'd like to move to a final vote.

[_]

Aye!
