DDT Re-Introduction Bill (reintroduced)

[Gabu]

At the request of Sen. Sam Spade, the following legislation is reintroduced:

DDT Re-Introduction Bill

1. All prohibitions on the export of DDT from the United States to foreign nations shall be lifted.

2. Nations against which the United States has levied sanctions shall still be prohibited from importing DDT.

I hereby open debate on this bill.

[Gabu]

Debate has ceased for 24 hours (discounting the time when nobody could get online), so I hereby bring this to a vote.

All senators in favor, vote "aye"; all senators against, vote "nay".

[Gabu]

Aye; John Ford's argument in favor of DDT exports is pretty compelling.

[Gabu]

Oh, wait... darn it, abstains always throw me; I keep forgetting that five with one abstaining is a majority.

Ahem...

With five in favor to none against, and with one abstaining, I hereby declare this bill to have passed.

I present it to our president for his signature.
