This amendment is not germane to the intents of the bill and it is inappropriate that it was ever considered. The VP should have rejected this amendment. If this is your intent, reject this legislation and propose a new one - this is not how proper governing should be done.
Precedent shows that this is in order, given that fhtagn hijacked a gun control bill last year to instead weaken gun laws.
That should have been struck down as well. Just because something has precedent doesn't make it right.
Sev, I'm not raising any objections to the amendments in question, I'm just pointing out what I believe should be the proper procedure for governing. Your amendment seeks to do the opposite of what the initial intent of this bill was. The main intent of this bill is what should be debated, it passed one chamber so should merit some consideration. Perhaps a better compromise can be reached, rather than fully reversing the intent of this bill. If folks have a completely different view, it would be best for it to be proposed as new legislation. I hope you'll consider introducing new legislation on the matter and I'm glad to see you taking an active role right off the bat in the House.
