This would lead to partisan picks for elections, which would actually make elections even more uncompetitive. This bill would actually create more problems. I shall be opposing it and I strongly urge fellow Senators to do the same.

I echo your concerns on this.

Anyone up for amending this bill to add the one week limit back?

Pardon my Senate newbiness, but I'm not sure how I would go about this. I would happily allow this amendment, and would even get rid of the rest of the bill that nobody seems to care for. That would make this bill only deal with the one week limit and nothing else. Better than nothing...  Grin

On the job Training-Lesson number one: The sponsor of a bill can offer an amendment to his own bill, because the sponsor offers it he automatically is accepting it as friendly. Senators have 24 hours after the amendment was offered to request a vote.
