Public Interest Amendment

[MasterJedi]

Public Interest Amendment

1. It seems logical that the Senate should be able to legislate on the grounds of Public Interest

2. The tricky part is working out what that is

3. And yet again, I might as well introduce this now and flesh the Amendment out later

Sponsor: Sen. Al

[MasterJedi]

So what are you planning to do with this Al?

[MasterJedi]

Does anyone wish to propose some amendments?

We should give them until tomorrow morning, then open the vote.

[MasterJedi]

Is anybody going to sponsor this? If nobody will it'll be dropped I believe.

[MasterJedi]

Is anybody going to sponsor this? If nobody will it'll be dropped I believe.

I'll give this until around 3-4 for somebody to sponsor, if nobody does this drop off and we'll get something new.

[MasterJedi]

And of course there is no debate, so I hereby open up the vote on this amendment to replace the current amendment. Please vote Aye, Nay or Abstain.
