The sponsor has 24 hours to commence advocacy and the other members have 48 hours to respond.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

First, can I actually amend the wording so section 2 says "Amendment to Moe re Fairness for Workers Act."

Yes, but I would desire whatever is going in the bold portion above be addressed before it is included.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Yankee?

I am unclear how you want that inserted into Section 2.

Is the quoted bill title merely to have this inserted in its place or the sentence reworked?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

So like this?
