Mideast Assembly Thread

[California8429]

Nomination to the Superior Court

I hereby nominate Big Bad Fab to the Superior Court.

You don't have to forgive me, but when did MOpolitico get in the Assembly? I have a weird feeling that elections took place without my knowing about them. If so, it's probably for the better, but I'd like to know. Incidentally, the Atlas Fantasy Elections Voting Booth doesn't seem to have a thread on any sort of Assembly elections, so that just deepens the mystery. Is it because big bad fab is moving up to the Superior Court?

Tmth didn't take his Senate seat, Officepark took his seat, MO took Officepark's seat, BBF is up for a nomination to the Superior Court in which there will be another vacancy.

There isn't any mystery here for what's been going on the last two weeks. How is it for the better that as an Assemblyman you don't know elections are being held?

Heads up if you want something signed into law get it passed ASAP because Friday I'm gone and won't be back in time for the next session.

Anything unsigned automatically becomes law.

We don't have the pocket veto option at the end of a session though?

[California8429]

Gentlemen; it's been a pleasure

bye bye for a very short time

[California8429]

Can we get the Speaker elections underway?

[California8429]

I finished updating the wiki for this session and noticed 3 bills introduced in the 18th Assembly were never open to debate.

A.R. 11: Amendment to the Mideast Abortion Statute II (Not Debated) -MOPolitico
A.R. 12: The Mideast Vital Civic Information Act (Not Debated) -MOPolitico
A.R. 13: Mideast Anti Marijuana Bill (Not Debated) -ZuWo

I highly recommend the Assemblymember reintroduce their legislation.

To view all legislation for the 16th, 17th, and 18th sessions click here https://uselectionatlas.org/AFEWIKI/index.php/Mideast_Statute#Legislation_Considered_in_the_18th_Assembly:

I have included failed bills, bills not voted on, and tabled bills which most Governors before me have not. So there's all your information.

[California8429]

The benefit of our regional government system is that we can debate all these bills at the same time, so even though we'll have 5 right now, we can take them all on at once.

[California8429]

I hereby appoint Happy Warrior to be the Superior Court Justice.

[California8429]

I nominate ZuWo for Speaker.

[California8429]

I am fine with either, so no loss to me

[California8429]

ZuWo

The vote is up to Inks

[California8429]

How would my fellow Assemblymembers and Governor feel about a law abolishing laws requiring citizens to wear a seatbelt? I was thinking, no longer making it a requirement for people 18 and older, as well as an rodents. Basically leaving it to the insurance companies.

Thoughts?

As long as this won't increase injuries and thus the taxpayers having to pay for people's medical bills, particularly those who don't buy insurance and those on the government plan.

[California8429]

Well the law is the law. For the record our previous Governor also fell foul of the law and it's an oft forgotten part of the statute. I do have a difficulty in editing the Wiki as it's not something I'm versed in. If anyone can do it you are more than welcome to take over.

No actually, I didn't. The bills I did not include direct links to this forum where bills that did not pass. Almost all previous governors never even mentioned bills that were debated or introduced but never turned into law. So actually, I performed this duty further than most previous Governors have.

[California8429]

I nominate Inks for Speaker. Let's get on a vote and get this session moving

[California8429]

If Inks doesn't appear someone else should run for Speaker. We need to get the session started.

Agreed. Let's give him until the end of the day.

[California8429]

My only concern is I will be gone from Sunday through Friday to kick off the session :/

If you're okay with that then we'll get a move on, but if that's going to hinder a great amount of early progress than let's just have HW be speaker.

[California8429]

I nominate HW for Speaker. And I take my leave

[California8429]

Mr. Speaker, can we start threads for these bills?
