This has enough votes to pass, Representatives have 24 hours to change their votes.

That moment when you realize that Labor is actually going to cut the Education Department to send Education back to the regions.


So just for to see how far I can go with this. I am tempted to offer an amendment with a 25% cut instead of a 1% cut. Tongue  Because a 1% cut is f2%king peanuts.


Also because people are bitching about us not voting nay enough.

I'm afraid I'm likely going to vote against a cut of 100% of the DoE's operating budget.

I am withdrawing the second one (the 100% one).


I will force a vote on 25% though.

I suppose 25% is fair, especially relative to the 100%.

25% is a lot more feasible.

Apologies for the lateness of the question, but — where are these cuts coming from? Are we simply reducing funding for all DoE programs by 25%, or are there specific areas being targeted?

I read operating budget as basically administrative costs and personnel and the only programs we would be cutting are those dealing with curriculum setting beyond enforcement of the requirements stated in Section 2. I would be open to considering amendments to target the cuts in certain areas and refine the language some. I was planning to offer one on Tuesday since I hope to have time on that day for such.

I meant Monday earlier not Tuesday, anyway between the shooting, Tom Petty's death and like 50 other things that I had to contend with today I was not able to get to such a text. So unless someone else has such an amendment to offer it will have to postponed until Wednesday.
