I urge a current Senator to introduce the following bill or something similar:
Senate Floor Rights Bill
I.) Only members of the Senate may comment on floor hearings such as bills and nominations.
II.) Anyone who posts in a hearing on a nominee or on a bill that is not a member of the
Atlasian Senate should be subject to a punishment prescribed by the presiding officer.
III.) Former Senators and Vice Presidents may retain floor previlieges at a time described by the President Pro Tempore or presiding officer.
IV.) This bill should be enacted at the time of its passage through the Senate.
Speaking of jokes... I think you brought up this bill when I was a Senator, and it's rightly never gone anywhere.
Hughento has never been qualified for much of anything, frankly, though I don't see why that should make a difference when there's pretty much no one left.
And why should anyone have to explain their vote, ever? Let the few voters who are left hold it against them at the next election.
