Alright dudes and dudettes, seeing as I'm supposed to be representing our awesome region, feel free to put proposals for bills here and if I like them, I will bring them up to the Senate. Fire away!

Yes, listen bro, I want to change the law which prohibits moves within four months. Why can't I move from one state of Northeast to other, not leaving region, without waiting?

Is that really important? Why do you care if you live in Rhode Island or Vermont?

It';s about principle. I don't my right to move within the same region to be curbed.

I don't oppose allowing that.....I don't care much either way.

I would, however, ask what "right" you have to move within a certain region. You're changing states...and the region they happen to be in is irrelevant under current law. This situation was the only possible way to do it when districts still existed and states were reapportioned every now and then.

Now that regions are the only form of non-national representation, it wouldn't be a problem to even eliminate state registration, IMO.

People could simply declare "Northeast" or "Mideast" when registering, and it might make things less confusing even.

Yes, this is important. Intraregional movement should not require a waiting period.

If Mrs. Winston Disareli were raped and killed, would you favor the Death Penalty for her murderer?

The problem with allowing state changes is that it let's people like Sewer spam the thread even more.

Sewer's spamming should be dealt with though, rather than punishing everyone for his stupidity.

There is no real point for moving states anyways though except perhaps to spam.

I suppose there's no real problem for allowing Inter-Region state switches, but there's no real benefit from it either....I suppose it'd be okay out of principle. How are you about limiting the Region-Change switch time?

Region change needs to be shortened to 90 days. As for state change... I don't really see the point.

Removing state-registration would make the SoFA's job easier aswell.

Here are some ideas:
-Increase funding for nuclear Power.
-Increase funding for Alternative energy research (other than Nuclear)
-Set a clear and absolute date on a switch over to alternative energy as a primary source of Atlasian power.

Of course, you don''t have to support his, but I would like to see this in a bill. Wink
