Sponsor: Not_Madigan

     I hereby open the floor for debate.

[Mr. Reactionary]

Personally I oppose this bill, so I will wait 24 hours to see if a Senator who does support this bill is willing to sponsor first. If not, I will move to sponsor, to keep things moving since this will remain on the floor until sponsored.

[_]

I support this bill so I move to Sponsor.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     Senators have 24 hours to object to Senator Not_Madigan assuming sponsorship.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     With no objections, Senator Not_Madigan has assumed sponsorship. I invite the Senator to speak on the bill.

[_]

Well, I simply concur with Rep. NeverAgain's conclusion that this bill grants workers a new way to form a union, rather than the Secret Ballot which has been proven to be tainted by influence from management.

[Mr. Reactionary]

I respect Senator NM's view on this issue even though i strongly disagree with the proposed change and intend to vote no, as I believe the secret ballot is much less prone to coercion.

Do any other Senators have concerns? If not, I think we are probably ready for a vote but I will let the sponsor make the motion.

[_]

I'll wait another day, then we can go to a final vote.

[_]

Well with a day having passed I motion for unanimous consent to move to a final vote

[Associate Justice PiT]

     You could have opened the final vote as Deputy PPT. As is, Senators have 24 hours to object to the motion for unanimous consent.

[Pericles]

I support this bill and urge all Senators to vote Aye. However I understand there is a risk of this bill being vetoed so would either President fhtagn or President-Elect Yankee be able to offer improvements to the bill so there won't be a veto? If not I will do my best to get the strongest possible vote total for this bill and then seek a veto override, so Senators who have concerns should express them.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     With no objections to the motion to unanimous consent, a final vote is now open on the bills. Senators have 72 hours to vote aye, nay, or abstain on the text in the OP.

[Pericles]

Aye.

[_]

Aye

[wxtransit]

I have mixed opinions on this bill; my personal view is somewhere between NM's and Mr. R's. For this reason, I'm abstaining.

[Mr. Reactionary]

Nay

[Wells]

Aye.

[Mr. Reactionary]

Bump

[Associate Justice PiT]

Final Vote:

Aye 3 (Mike Wells, Not_Madigan, Pericles)
Nay 1 (Mr. Reactionary)
Abstain 0
Not Voting 2 (Haslam, wxtransit)

     This bill passes both chambers of Congress and is submitted to the President for her signature.
