Meanwhile, some experts are questioning the use of federal troops without express permission of the Senate.

One presumes this would be related to Posse Comitatus?

No, Article I, Section 5, Clause 23 of the Atlasian Constitution, which enumerates the following power of the Senate:

When I had very little sleep, was studying for two tests and mistook the largest city of its capital. Wink

It is now fixed.

Seeing as I haven't gotten a paycheck for this yet, I'm starting to wonder which senator is skimming the cream off the top. I'll be watching...but I'll put on these shades so you can't tell who I'm looking at. Cool

I know there are a lot of new threads being started so it is hard to keep up with. This fell to page 3.

The Southeast Initiative thread. And it already has one measure on the ballot, and a second one still requiring signatures.

You know what to do.

Northeast
While passing substantive reforms for regional governance, the Northeast's Assembly seems to have become bogged down recently in substance-less discussion and debates over protocol. The Office of the GM recommends a revision of the legislature's SOAP to both ensure clarity and efficiency.

Why ? The protocol exists and is very clear, we just need to apply it and are just waiting for an official (Lt Gov or Speaker) to do. Revising (again) the SOAP will be a waste of time for real legislation.

I've also got legislation in waiting to deal with the issue of green jobs.

I noticed that. Just trying to move things along.

And while the SOAP itself may be fine, the Assembly seems to very often focused on questions about protocol. Perhaps clearer guidelines, or more efficient ones, would work better. Just putting it out there based on my own observations.

Yeah, but we don't need to be told that. It's much preferred if you can give us some kind of news or data to work with. We know about the structural issues because they fall under our jurisdiction. The data is under yours and it would be appreciated.

ALSO: A lot of stuff geared towards the environment, most importantly the green jobs initiative and my sustainable forestry legislation, but also the cape wind resolution.

I've given the Northeast its fair share of data as well. I give a balance of economic, social and government analysis for the regions. The position of GM has historically focused not only on numbers, but also general goings-on in Atlasia. You will continue to get numbers, but I also serve to instigate the steady flow of effective government (just see my comments on the Pacific, previous comments on the Mideast and Southeast, etc.).

Not pointing out the Northeast in particular. No worries.

I certainly have no issues with your GM work.

I was just pointing out that we've got a big line and that my green jobs bill is behind.

I would appreciate a report on the passage of the GTO Expansion Act in the concerned countries as well as a report on the effectiveness of the Atlasian federal stimulus thus far.
