Why are you challenging U.S. Code in an Atlasian Court?

I despair, I really do. Whilst I promised to leave, I hate to see people's good work go to waste, and I will always do whatever I can to protect federal law. I'd also like to say that I despise this kind of action by people in Atlasia - these sort of Court challenges only serve to divide those of you who actually remain around here.

Bono, read it and weep:

Promotion of Democracy Act (F.L. 6-7)

Clause 6 reads
The Senate will hereby allocate $10,000,000 for aid towards pro-democracy groups in Lebanon and Iran.

This is constitutional on the grounds of Article I, Section 5, Clause 20:
To promote Comity between Nations by engaging in such activities with other Nations as are of mutual benefit.

The question of what is of "mutual benefit" is inherently a political question and thus the Courts are not able to adjudicate on this matter. If they are able to adjudicate on this matter I'm sure its quite easy to argue that Iran and Lebanon becoming democracies is of mutual benefit to them and Atlasia.

Preserving our National Parks Act (F.L. 6-17)

All national parks are owned by the federal government and therefore the federal government may exercise exclusive legislation over them via Article I, Section 5, Clauses 26 and 27. I don't have the time to be bothering reading Title 16 of the US Code, so I can't comment on all of it, but it looks like it falls under the category of federally owned land and thus Clauses 26 and 27 once again give exclusive legislative ability.

I also feel compelled to ask if you've actually read Titles 16 and 29 of the US Code in their entirity, as well as the quoted sections of Title 42?

I'll think about the other stuff.

Just can't stay away can you Smiley
