Quite honestly, Mr. Reactionary, I supported this amendment, but the fact is, a good legislative leader knows when to admit defeat on a bill. That you have refused to do so, and are refusing to acknowledge a motion to table that almost certainly would pass, is disturbing.
Motions to table require a 2nd. No second was made.
1.) Any Senator can, during a period of debate, with the support of one other Senator, introduce a motion to table the legislation.
I accept your apology.
Obviously that section of Senate rules should be changed.
But yes, I was wrong. The legislation still should be tabled though. It's clearly not going to pass in any form.
