2009 Atlasian Economic Relief and Recovery Bill (Law'd)

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Geez guys, we have, what, two weeks until the end of the session? We will get this passed. Calm down and let's finish this on a high note. There are two pending amendments, with Marokai accepting afleitch's as friendly. That isn't a lot and we have plenty of time.

I am calm

I am just concerned we may be allocating $25bn for a tax cut on unemployment compensation that we already have , $20bn on funding for tertiary education that has already been secured through another act and we may be give 700 bucks to for those who switch to renewable sources when it's not clear what 'sources' we are counting.

It's not you I'm worried about afleitch.

We actually have until the first Friday in September to finish this, right? That's 3 or 4 weeks. I'm not sure why more amendments are suddenly scary. I will be voting for this bill and we will be passing this before the session ends, but I want this bill to be as good as possible. I don't consider it to be at that level when there are serious questions about large chunk of spending and how the money is to be accepted by the regions.

What a way to call me out, PS. What happened to doing things privately?

I haven't been calm in about 2 years. I live a life of stress, I even have a stress related illness to prove it.

Just wanted to make sure afleitch doesn't think I'm calling him out.

But seriously guys, lets work on the remaining amendments and commit to getting a final vote by August 21st. We still have until September 4 before the new session starts, so that is plenty of time to both work on amendments and have a well placed final vote.

Does that work for everyone?

Works for me.
