Seems reasonable enough to me.

[Deep Dixieland Senator, Muad'dib (OSR MSR)]

This should be introduced in the regional legislatures. As correct me if i'm wrong but isn't policing a regional matter?

The federal government can typically require minimum due process of local law enforcement.

[West_Midlander]

Thank you, Mr. PPT.

This common sense legislation will protect the rights of the accused and encourage the pursuit of justice and due process in this country.

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

The South passed this months ago, I'll be glad if the federal government borrowed from us as inspiration.

Proposed amendment to tighten the federal nexus.

Oh yeah, and in case my signature isn't clear I object to the out of order motion to table.

I'd very happily support this bill, with or without Reactionary's amendment. For a change I can see where he comes from, so I might even support his amendment (or I might end up voting present), but one way or another, I intend to support this common-sense legislation. My only real question is why such legislation is not already on the books. I see no reason whatsoever to table this bill.

How did this ex-Senator get onto the Senate floor? SECURITY!

I am deleting all my extra posts now. My mistake, and let me just say how embarrassed I am that I've not caught it all this time...

[Joseph Cao]

Good and necessary amendment, no objections to it.

[Joseph Cao]

After the objection period passes, we’ll move to a vote to proceed to tabling.

The current motion to table is not valid.

The rules don't matter with this administration.

If House of Cards is to be believed (I'm not an expert, though), then as long as (ex-)Senator CR has his Senatorial pin on then he can be invited to speak on the floor. If this is the case, I hereby invite the honorable former Senator to speak, as a sitting Senator myself. This is the People's Senate but it's not unusual for the "pro-people" majority to act as Karens in trying to throw citizens out of this chamber. It's not unheard of in Atlasia for citizens to speak in the Senate, and there's no harm in it at all.

It's probably floor privileges for former members. Thats why Capitol Police was letting me onto the floor last month before I swore in, since I used to be PPT. Why, George over there at the back entrance used to be stationed near my old office.

Besides I don't see anything alarming like Buffalo horns.
