I nominate Fezzyfestoon for the recommendation for Lieutenant Governor.

Does anyone else have any recommendations?

If he would accept, I would second the recommendation of Fezzy. I believe he did well, and has the experience as a former Governor to do the job.

Hey all, just wanted to give you a heads up that I'm havin laptop problems here. It isn't charging, and since I have a new job can't quite sneak on at work yet, so I can only use my phone. If someone would be kind and send me a pm when we have a vote it would be greatly appreciated until I get this fixed. Thanks!

I must say that although I know this bill has a good reason behind it, I dont find it needed. The CJO, Lt. Governor, and Governor (atleast by the last NE Constitution) were able to provide and certify results. When it comes to the Assembly, it takes time in counting the numbers to make sure that they are correct, and many people, including myself, do have work or school, whcih makes it difficult to provide that number as soon as the election has been completed.

Quote from: Speaker of the Northeast Assembly Han on July 13, 2010, 02:23:08 PM
I don't support this bill. I believe that increasing the minimum wage will hurt small businesses who are already struggling to pay their employees and make ends meet. Small businesses are doing everything they can to stay afloat, and do we really want to make their lives harder? Increasing the minimum wage will hurt the economy, cause a rise in unemployment, and will exacerbate the problems it was meant to destroy.

Aside from an ideological difference with this bill, there are practical and legal matters that conflict with this bill. The first problem, that we have a huge deficit, and it would be irresponsible to expand the deficit through tax cuts right now, lest we create a bigger deficit and mortgage our children's future. The second problem, is that this bill directly conflicts with already established law.

In other words, we can't unilaterally increase the Northeast minimum wage. We must set our minimum wage equal to the Federal minimum wage. That is the law.

I shall be voting nay on this bill (no offense, Representative Sargent), and I hope the rest of the Northeast Assembly will do the same.

I agree with most of this statement. By increasing the minimum wage, especially by 5%, small businesses will really suffer the most out of all of this. As most of us know, the Northeast has a very lage small business block. If this were to pass, we would be killing the dreams and incomes of a lot of hard working people of this region.

I support this, I do love voting with just an X, but it makes sense to go by a scoring when there is more than 2 candidates.

Mr. Speaker,

 Thank you for allowing me the time to present this bill. Although it was placed last minute, I felt that something had to be done about unemployment in this region, and I believe that this would be a good start. To my fellow Representatives, I have no issues with changes to this bill, although I do ask that we work quickly on this, as my time in the Assembly is coming to an end, and I'd like to be able to help get this passed.
