I move to amend the bill as follows (even though it will be viewed as unfriendly and be put to a vote):

Freedom of Conscience Amendment

Section B(1) shall be amended as follows:
1.  Except as provided in subsection B(6), completion of at least one semester of sexual health is required for all high school students in order to graduate.

A new Section B(6) shall be added:
6.  Before the beginning of the relevant semester, every school shall send a permission slip to parents or guardians of children who would otherwise be enrolled in sexual health class.  A parent or guardian shall be entitled to remove their child from all or any portion of a sexual health class, specifically including any portion of that class teaching methods of contraception, masturbation or homosexuality.   No school shall take any action against a student whose parent opts out of enrolling their child in all or any portion of a sexual health class, nor shall that student's grade, grade-point average, or ability to graduate be affected.

I know that this amendment will not have enough support to pass but go ahead and vote.

Such amendment would kill the entire idea of the bill

Precisely. I will never support this because it makes no sense.

We can give it a fair vote but I doubt it passes.

It won't.

In fact, almost every state that does not require solely abstinence-only sex education provides for some form of  parental opt-out.   And in my opinion, the law in the remaining handful of states is suspect.

Why shouldn't the Northeast law provide an opt-out?  It would put our law in line with almost all others.

Perhaps it's because the Northeast is more courageous on this issue?

This.

This entire process was a confusing mess, with people being told they could vote in a way inconsistent with the standing rules of the body.

And by your vote you are making it even more so.

So, now we need Smid to vote , and if he votes nay, then we'll need MR President to break the tie.
I predict a long time of legislative stagnation...

Since we are amending SOAP, here is something to make us go faster. Debates have beeen really too long and we still have many things to debate...


Amendment to the SOAP

Section 3, subsection a) is amended as follows :

Except as otherwise provided in subsection (h), all proposed legislation other than veto override votes shall be open for debate for no less than until fourty-eight (48) hours after the Lt. Governor places it on the Northeast Assembly floor.

We need to revive this, or this Assembly will be remembered as an epic fail.

Seems perfectly reasonable. At 16 you're responsible enough to freely decide this sort of things.

This is terrible. At 16 kids are still in high school. Do they go home from school and then do porn at night?

Kids ? Am I a kid ?!?

Yes a 16 year old is a kid.

Sorry, but this is absurd. I'm not especially mature, but I think I'm reasonable enough to decide whenever or not I want to have sex.

Hashemite, who is one of the most mature people around here, is just one year older.

You must be a virgin. Come on, if this weren't Atlas I'd be able to say we all had sex by then, but most people here aren't into girls for some reason. Either way, this is a great change.

I never had sex, I never came close to have. I just want to feel free to do as soon as I'll want this and have the occasion.

Yeah! Great change! Why stop at 16 though! Let's make it 8 years old!

This argument is totally senseless. Nobody spoke about 8 years old.

It feels so lonely being one of the only people here with any sense of morals or values.

I have a great sense of morals and values, don't care if you don't believe me. I just think morals and values are a personal question and have nothing to do with politics.
