[Attorney General & PPT Dwarven Dragon]

Constitutional Convention Proposal Vote:

Seciton A. This bill will be known as the Constitutional Convention Proposal Vote

Section B. What's being voted on.
1. Whether or not direct democracy should be applied on the federal level.
An "Aye on 1" vote will signal an approval to move forward.
A "Nay on 1" vote will signal disapproval.

2. On the Nationalization of essential services defined as "healthcare, transportation, and energy".
An "Aye on 2" vote will signal an approval to move forward
A "Nay on 2" vote will signal disapproval

Section C. Implementation:
Following a 2/3rds vote in the senate, each issue will be brought to be voted during the next federal election. A majority vote is required for the implementation of a Constitutional Convention where these issues can be debated upon and decided on further. Because each issue is being voted on separately, one of them failing will not impact the other if it passes.

I thank the sponsor for finally introducing these in a format the Senate can actually consider. I will vote Aye and look forward to seeing the people decide on these important matters.

Aye

The vote is 11-6-0-1, however the bill imposed upon itself a 2/3 requirement to have any operative effect. 64% in favor is close, but not quite. The bill has failed.
