I'm tabling this. That means it is removed from the floor.

You can't do that until the amendment vote is final.

Okay, fine. But if any of the first three amendments pass, consider this tabled by the sponsor.

Don't worry for that, man. Grin

this won't have the votes to pass unless Smid supports it. Which I would doubt.

I agree "smell" amendment is a joke.

But there are things like gender orientation we should not ignore.

gender identity is a stupid concept. Size is even worse. I don't need to have sympathy for overeaters, let alone have the government not work with those who don't hire a huge person. Next we know the government is going to have to super size everything.

This is not about sympathy, but about justice.

and the weight loss industry is worth billions. Justice.

Size and smell are both choices.

Lose weight and take a shower.

Obesity is an illness.

No, it isn't.

Obesity is an illness.

An illness one brings upon oneself by making poor personal choices. There are consequences to be faced. A company shouldn't be forced to bear the burden because a potential employee can't fit through their front door.

In the case you didn't knew that, overeating isn't always the cause of obesity.

This bill says size, not obesity. Some companies mightnot even own equipment these big/tall/short people can operate. Obesity is a choice. If it is causedby someother precondition, it would already be covered by disability. This is a useless and dangerous addition brought up by special interests.

No, you are trying to make a "poor me, I'm fat" and I findit absolutely sickening. If youthink discrimination against fat people is a problem, write a bill to combat the problem of obesity. We shouldn't accept unsightliness and unhealthiness as "okay" when it is a serious problem. It's not "okay" to be obese. Not only that, but size, again, can mean anything and I already explained why that is a problem.

How can you have a -7 social score and pretend to tell everybody what is "okay" and what is not ?

Because they are trying to intentionally burden our society?

I have a duel problem. One is that I am supposed to have a gland that tells me when I'm full, but it doesnt. The other is I have a very slow motabalisim. I work out often, and yet still have a problem losing weight, even though I only have an intake of roughly 1200-1600 calories a day. So, is what being said here is that even though I'm a hard worker, I can be denied work because of my weight?



That would be covered by disability.

There is no need to resign your seat.   The mods aren't even Northeast citizens and have no business running this Assembly.

Please PM me your proposed amendment so I can put it on the floor. 

I had it saved but erased once I saw you quoted it. Looks like I will have to start all over

I think general tone of your amendment was to delete section 2 and 3 and reallocate the funds to the RFER in Section 1 - though you might have also changed the text of Section 1 a bit.

I did change quite a bit of Section 1.
