Columbia Bill

[True Democrat]

I'd like the opinion of the Secretary of State on removing Section Four before I vote.

I do not support the removal of section four.  Instead, I believe we should simply change it.  The first part is fine.  The only part I have a problem with is the restrictions.  The State Department in no way supports economic restrictions, but when it comes to military restrictions, I feel that many of the weapons could possible end up in the hands of the terrorists.  That is why the State Department supports partial military restrictions.

So, on this amendment, I would advise the Senators to vote Nay.  Instead, write an amendment that includes the current restrictions in the Foreign Policy Review.

[True Democrat]

On that note, Nay

Thank you.  Try to convince more Senators

[True Democrat]

True _____, you have EVERY ability to change it yourself, but thanks to your actions, you've just made sure that the preable and section three won't be scrapped.

Thanks a lot.

But if Section Four goes into effect, then I can no longer change the Columbia review because the Senate can overrule me.

[True Democrat]

My amendment was to REMOVE section 4. What are you arguing? You wanted it or not?

I'm sorry.  I didn't understand what you were saying.  I just think that Section Four needs to be revised, not taken out.  The Senate, if they are committed to this cause, should do this.  I really don't care that much either way.  Also, could you please explain what Section Three is?
