Northeast Assembly Thread II

[Dr. Cynic]

I'm not a particularly good bill writer, so I wanted to let everyone know in advance that the legislation I've introduced, I'm perfectly open to amendments from those who are better at bill crafting than I am to clean up any loose ends.

[Dr. Cynic]

We really need to get a debate going on how to get Northeast election turnout up.

[Dr. Cynic]

How much does it cost regionally to send a student to college in the Northeast, because I think we really should pump some money into the schools as well?

[Dr. Cynic]

It's already been asked. Actually, it was asked on the basis of me wanting to write a bill for more permanent expenditure rather than by using stimulus money, but if there was something that could be used as a one time expense that we could put some money toward, I was thinking it would be good to look at something for education.

[Dr. Cynic]

Aye

[Dr. Cynic]

AYE

Now we can finally get this nonsense sorted out.

Northeast Assembly Speaker Official Ballot:

[X] Alfred F. Jones
[ ] Write-In:_________________

[Dr. Cynic]

My lords,

I would like to see some effort now made toward prison reform in the Northeast. I ask the Speaker to open such a debate among you on the topic and hopefully you will be able to bring me a bill that will be satisfactory.

[Dr. Cynic]

Well, it seems there is no such bill. Before I begin drafting one, however, what's the current state of our prisons? Same as status quo?

There wasn't a bill. I just wanted to see a debate begin to hopefully get the entire Assembly to craft a good bill.

So far. I know it was a goal of Sirnick's to work on prison reform, but we never got to it, so I'd like to see us get to it now.

[Dr. Cynic]

Not offhand. Someone usually misses each bill.

[Dr. Cynic]

I would like to thank the Grand Maester for administering things during my illness. I would like to let you all know that I'm back to resume my duties.

[Dr. Cynic]

I'll nominate SWE for Speaker.

[Dr. Cynic]

How boring We never have had a proper contest for the job in any of my terms here.

[Dr. Cynic]

Abstain

[Dr. Cynic]

I'm fine with him as Speaker. He wants the job, let him have it.

Though, this happens rather frequently. Every time, bar once or twice, I've been here, it's always a seemingly one horse race for the job. We need to at some point think about at least having a proper contest at some point.
