If another senator were willing to assume sponsorship of this bill for me, we could start debating it immediately. Unfortunately, I'm not allowed to have any other bills on the Senate floor right now.

I'll support this, with a few amendments.

Always willing to accept friendly amendments

I would maybe consider what other criminal offenses we have in Atlasia and think about whether the sentences outlined here are really in line with the others. I mean, being convicted of voter fraud under the CCJA can result in 3-month voting bans, as there is no minimum.

If anyone is willing to make this a greater reform here, I would suggest adding these two things to the CCJA and then mandating mandatory minimum sentences for ALL offenses in the CCJA. I don't think that would be unreasonable.
