Senate Protest and Analysis Thread

[Napoleon]

No party chairman has been nominated for a Cabinet position Mr. PPT.

I thought Griffin was Labor Chairman.

I was speaking from Snowstalkers perspective in a sarcastic fashion to illustrate the counterproductive effect of his amendment being offered at this point in time.

Gm is not a cabinet position and would be unaffected by the proposed amendment.

Does anybody know if Atlasia has established an official retirement plan for seniors, or is that already covered by the Social Security Act, the basics of which I assume resemble the real life version's?

[Napoleon]

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I was talking about the bill that President Marokai posted on his platform :/

Well, the President hadn't realized that was something I already did when I was President.

[Napoleon]

I made the order because there is a clause in the Pacific's Constitution (which specifically says to interpret it liberally!) to immediately designate someone who can open voting booths as quickly and efficiently as possible when there's a breakdown in government and things aren't working how they're supposed to.

Where do you see that clause?

[Napoleon]

It literally could not be any more straightforward.

SECTION 2: ELECTORAL REGULATIONS
1.   All elections to regional offices, including but not limited to the Pacific Council, the Governorship, recall elections, and such, will be opened by the Governor of the Pacificans on the Voting Booth subboard. In an absence of the Governor, the Pacific Justice may open the thread. In a case of “anarchy”, defined as a lack of elections and/or a lack of any comprehensible regional Government, which may be interpreted liberally by the Federal Government at their advisory, the Secretary of Federal Elections (or any equivalent thereof) or the President of Atlasia may designate a Pacific Citizen to open a voting booth for the vacated offices in a time set by one of the designated federal officers.

That is not the Pacific Constitution.

Yeah, but the vote wasn't conducted properly (according to Wolfentoad himself).

[Napoleon]

I believe you're referring to the first vote on this Constitution.

https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=170986.0

No, it was the most recent one. He told me "not to tell anyone", but who am I to stand pat and witness an egregious injustice?

[Napoleon]

Hmm... it might be a good idea to pass a law limiting one bill to a post in the Introduction thread.  I'm sure you all know what I mean...

Why? It would only take up more space.

[Napoleon]

I'll take the Wikimaster one, I suppose.

This may be the most ridiculous and unconstitutional thing TNF has introduced to-date. Another record broken - what can we expect next??

It won't pass.
