Nay, the limit isn’t necessary.

[RC]

Nay, I'd like to see where this goes

Abstain

[RC]

Aye

I’ve determined that I will be switching my vote to Nay, re-reading this it needs some work. Still agree with the general concept, just needs a bit more.

Go back to the court windjammer, I just want it to be the best the first time we pass it.

Also, I'm more of a Mitt Romney guy myself.

I agree with RC's vague concerns, but I feel like he meant to vote "abstain." Anyway I'll cancel that out and vote aye!

And I trust the Senate--including the recently-elected member from my own region!--to improve the substance of this bill and get us something we can all agree with!

RIP Sensible and independent thinking Leinad

Oh wow, Leinad thinks my statements are vague even though I just want everything in the bill to be crystal clear, and even tho he agrees he’ll vote to advance a bill that’ll potentially come back around in a year with imperfections. Classic old man yells at cloud moment.
