I appreciate that you took the initiative of doing this sawx, but perhaps it'd be advisable to get a definite revenue projection from the GM?

Also budgets last for four months, I believe.

Correct

It's 4 months (the length of your term). Go back and look and see how every other Governor has approached it.

Also...Flo?

Does the STEM Cell Research Act mandate state funding for embryonic stem cell research in addition to adult stem cell research? I cannot seem to find a transcript of it, unless it is an alternate name for this. Either way, I will not vote for a budget that finances embryonic stem cell research.

Might be that, but I won't vote for a bill that repeals stem cell funding. Research like this is vital to our future.

There was stem cell research bill in May 2013.

Link to the amended bill the assembly voted on:

Cloture now has a majority of votes from Representatives of the Assembly. We can move on to the final vote, although I will wait for someone to second the motion.

We now move onto a final vote. The voting period lasts 48 hours or until all representatives have voted.

By a 2-1 margin, the budget passes. Napoleon has missed his fourth vote in a row, but I believe the third automatically expels him, and Winfield missed his first vote.

The budget goes to the Governor's desk for his signature or veto.

48 hours for the vote fell on Christmas Day.

I do not believe I should be penalized for not voting on Christmas Day.

Christmas Day is a non sitting day, so this bill should have had a 72 hour window in which to vote.

I had planned to vote on the day after Christmas.

Don't sweat it. You'll be active now.

Also, signed.

The SOAP amendment passed after this vote began, the timing was going to be bad either way.

I wasn't about to switch SOAP rules admist a vote. That'd be like changing rules in the middle of a kock game.
