No offence, PB, but this is Bureaucratic BS. Time, money and energy wating. There are many more important things in front of the senate at the moment, and as a taxpayer, I can only express dissapointment in the senate for being so frivolous. I'm sure each member of the senate is more then capable of wishing you a happy anniversary without passing a bill.

Happy Birthday, mate-it seems like you're getting a very frivolous but expensive birthday present.

a) It's not a bill, it's a resolution;
b) The real congress does things like this all the time.

(It was just a pot-stir...)

What is dumb is that it was even introduced. No senator should spend time voting on this. If they do vote, I suppose aye would be appropriate, but they shouldn't vote at all.

Senate resolutions don't need signatures by the President, or at least R. 2-1 didn't.

This is exactly why I say the Senate is ineficient. It has taken entirely too long to pass a simple resolution about my birthday. My birthday was the 23rd and today is the 27th and it just got passed. This should have been a quick one day thing and then we got back to more important measures. There was entirely too much arguing on something this simplistic.

But see, just to recognize the President's birthday, HIS BIRTHDAY, you had to debate the motion and then certify it on the 27th...4...days...later...

And there was me hoping that I would be able to keep it up there ad nauseum.

I won't put this on the Statute thread unless somebody asks as it acutally has no effect.
