The Imperial Dominion of the South's Legislature

[Associate Justice PiT]

     The School Choice Initiative might be worth revisiting later, but it has some critical problems as is. It'd be best to scotch it & start anew at a later date.

I was hoping to repeal it now so that we wouldn't have to completely guesstimate a much reduced base figure.  Besides, we have nothing else in the legislature to work on.

Feel free to introduce them to the legislature whenever you want.

I voted Nay on the bill, and will vote Aye to repeal it.

[Dancing with Myself]

It looks good to me

[Yelnoc]

I voted Nay on the bill, and will vote Aye to repeal it.

Do what now?  And Taft, we have 2/3 majority so you can put that bill up to vote whenever you are ready.

[Mr. Taft Republican]

Apologies.

Educational Hotfix Act

1.  The School Choice Initiative is hereby repealed in its entirety.
2.  Education spending, organization, and all other facets of the system affected by the School Choice Initiative shall revert to their state before the passage of that initiative.

Please vote.

[Yelnoc]

Aye.

[Dancing with Myself]

Aye

[Mr. Taft Republican]

Eh, 24 hours is plenty of time. Bill passes, 2-0, and is up for signature.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     On The Educational Hotfix Act: by the powers vested in me as Emperor of this region, I thus sign it into law.

     Be it resolved, X Emperor PiT

I'm going to have a new bill up by the end of the day

Cool beans.  Sanchez, if you want to introduce something from your platform go ahead.  Just (both of you) remember to post it in the legislative introduction thread.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     I have a new bill & a new amendment that I've written up, but I won't be able to access my home computer to get them up for another eight hours or so.

I'll have to wait a day unfortunately because I had to do things that I needed to do for college. So it will be a day

That's fine, real life first.  In the meantime, PiT has proposed two bills.  Both are routine matters and will hopefully be passed quickly.  Here is the first.

     My reason for writing this bill is that there are several subjects on which regional law is enumerated across several laws in a redundant & haphazard fashion. If we can collect these bills into a single law that will be continuously updated as new laws are passed on the issue, like with the regional Constitution, it should make the regional statute much easier to navigate.

The Emperor can only remove stuff from Omnibus bills, right? And perhaps the parts removed from bills should be kept on the wiki, with this format.

That's a good idea.  Emperor, do you accept it as friendly?

[Associate Justice PiT]

     My idea is to include a link to the original version of the bill in the main article of the bill, like we have done with the regional Constitution. I think it could create confusion to have stricken portions of text in the bill alongside new portions. Furthermore, I do not know how to put strikeout lines on text on the Wiki.

     I can't directly amend any of the laws accorded special status under this bill. Essentially, the Legislature passes a law & then I get to decide whether or not it is counted as an amendment to any of the omnibus laws. Not to mention my decision on the matter can always be appealed to Dibble.

[Yelnoc]

Ah, ok.  Sounds good.  Any other thoughts?

[Dancing with Myself]

I guess this looks good, even though I don't know what it is about

[Mr. Taft Republican]

Well then, to a vote!
