Debate commences on the ratification of said treaty, I type this as the daily Atlas crash occurs.

[Terry the Fat Shark]

I need to read in a bit further, but at first glance I am with Senator Blair on this one, why do we need to remove borders?

[Terry the Fat Shark]

I promise I will read more into this tomorrow, I have a math midterm in 4 hours and I pulled another one of those accidental all nighters

[Terry the Fat Shark]

After reading through the Treaty again I am now in favor of it, I also note Section 2 which notes that this does not compromise the sovereignty of nations.

[Terry the Fat Shark]

Senator Blair, would you like me to move on and open up a vote on this bill to gauge the Senate, or would you like debate to continue?

[Terry the Fat Shark]

If there are no objections to this, I will open up a vote on this later today.

[Terry the Fat Shark]

I open up a 48 hour final vote on this bill, Senators will have 48 hours to vote AYE, NAY, or ABSTAIN. If this passes, it will go onto the House for their decision.

AYE

[Terry the Fat Shark]

The Treaty is hereby approved by the Senate with 5 voting AYE and 1 Abstaining.

I believe I was mistaken before in saying that it would go to the House, as the Constitution states that the Senate has the power to regulate commerce between nations. I would appreciate it if another Senator or if the SoS could verify this in the Constitution before I officially send it to the desk of President Leinad.
