2nd Council of Lincoln Legislation Introduction

[S019]

Transportation Improvement Bill

Sponsor: Councilor Suburban NJ Conservative (F-NJ)

This bill calls for building a tolled closed system mega highway with a toll of $0.75 per mile, from Philadelphia to Buffalo

It also calls to add tolls to the following interstate highways at the price of $0.80 per mile: I-80 (PA), I-95 (RI), I-70 (IN)

It also calls to add express toll lanes at the price of $1.25 per mile on the following highways in the New York City area (I-495, I-278, I-95 (until Exit 14), I-695, I-295) and in the Philadelphia area (I-276, I-95, I-76 (until Schuykill Haven)

This bill also calls for renovating the Verrazano Narrows Bridge and mandating a toll hike of 50% on all existing Lincoln tolls to pay for it

The money generated from this toll revenue, will be used to make repairs to roads in poor conditions and also to make improvements to major airports, such as Chicago O’Hare, New York City’s JFK, and Boston Logan.

I hope that the Council will support my plan to fund improvements to Lincoln’s infrastructure

A Bill to Exterminate Gun Violence
Sponsor: Councilor Suburban NJ Conservative (F-NJ)

This bill shall:

Ban all assault weapons
Create a two-year waiting period to purchase a gun
Abolish any concealed carry
Require two weeks worth of background checks and require gun owners to turn over all personal documents to be checked
Ban anyone with any criminal history or charge from purchasing any type of firearm
Require people to be at least 35 to purchase a firearm
Require people to obtain a license to carry a firearm
Licences cannot be delivered any earlier than 16 months after one applies for them
The application for a gun license must be approved of by the majority of the Lincoln Council and Lincoln’s Attorney General

I trust that this legislation, will help us to eliminate the scourge of gun violence from the region of Lincoln

[S019]

Frémont will be happy to accept refugees fleeing the scourge of toll roads and gun-grabbing regional inspectors if the opposition ever gains power in Lincoln.

Equal amounts of people will flee the high taxes that you are advocating for in Fremont

[S019]

Frémont will be happy to accept refugees fleeing the scourge of toll roads and gun-grabbing regional inspectors if the opposition ever gains power in Lincoln.

When did Labor and Fremont become supporters of the NRA, Lincoln will fight the NRA and pass common-sense gun reform

[S019]

This is atrocious

There is no way that I will support Lincoln’s healthcare system being allowed to become even more broken

The government needs to keep its hands off of healthcare

[S019]

Lincoln Abortion Ban Repeal Act

to return Lincoln to a common sense reproductive health law

Section II

1. This act takes effect immediately upon signing by the governor.

I don’t think this makes sense, as we just ended an anti-abortion amendment to the single payer bill

[S019]

Here is the cap and trade bill that I promised


It is based on the bill that Harry Reid (D-NV) and Senate Democrats proposed IRL in 2010, I added and deleted some provisions, but that is the inspiration for my bill
