Unless any constituents have any more legislation that they would like for me to introduce on their behalf, then yes. SInce you seem so concerned about that amount of legislation I've proposed, I'm wondering what legislation you have proposed yet?

You mean this Senate session? Obviously nothing as it's only just started. If you mean in general, then rather a lot, including several acts that you're trying to repeal as part of your spamming session.

Billboard Quarantine Act

       Recognizing that highway billboards are a form of visual pollution scaring the landscape of Atlasian highways, One Billion Dollars is hereby appropriated for the following purposes:

  (i)    To secure visual easements along Altasian federal highways in which the posting of any commercial signage is prohibited.

  (ii)    To plant trees between Atlasian federal highways and billboards so that the tree foliage camouflages such billboards from the view of occupants of motor vehicles on such highways.
