However, I am compelled to ask what the constitutional justification for this legislation is, in particular section 1 (section 2, being a tax break, is IMO justified). Certainly it would have been justified under the Public Interest Amendment as a protection of those in employment, but the Senate in it's infinitesimal wisdom rejected that proposal.
It would indeed be ironic, were the Public Interest Amendment to have been the only constiutional justification for this Bill, given that Brian voted against it
Why some progressive, and pro-environmentalist. Senators didn't support that Amendment, makes my blood boil. I argued there and then that it was not unreasonable providing it was used wisely

Hey,
I voted for the Public Interest Amendment.
