SB 117-70: Spring Break Ain't Just for Flowers

If the sponsor wants this bill to be effective, and I still hate this concept with a passion, I suppose the least I can do is make it as targeted as possible. Cut the meaningless/redundant babble.

Spring Break Ain't Just for Flowers

Quote

Section I: Title

This Act shall be cited as the "Spring Break Ain't Just For Flowers" Act.

Section II: Findings

The Senate of the Republic of Atlasia finds the following:

(1) Spring Break stands as an integral phase in the academic calendar, designed to offer students a crucial break from the continuous cycle of studies, ensuring mental rejuvenation and physical relaxation.

(2) The importance of such breaks isn’t merely physical. Spring Break fosters a sense of community among students, allows them to cultivate diverse cultural and social experiences, and assists in the overall development of a well-rounded individual.

(3) Not only do students deserve this break for their mental and physical well-being, but they should also be entitled to the freedom to decide how they wish to spend it. Restricting such freedoms can inadvertently stifle the holistic growth that Spring Break promotes.

(4) While the importance of autonomy is paramount, it's equally essential to ensure the safety and well-being of younger students. It's vital to strike a balance that respects the students' choices while keeping age-appropriate checks in place.

Section ~~III~~II: Codification as a Human Right

1. Every student studying in the republic of Atlasia shall have the inalienable human right to Spring Break. This right is rooted in recognizing the importance of mental rejuvenation, physical relaxation, cultural exploration, and community building for the overall well-being of the individual.

2. No educational institution, public or private, within the jurisdiction of the Republic of Atlasia, shall deny or restrict a student's access to Spring Break or penalize students for their participation.

32. While affirming this right, provisions related to safety, especially concerning students below the age of 18, shall be duly considered and integrated into institutional policies. These measures shall not infringe on the core right to Spring Break but aim to ensure its safe and fulfilling experience.

4. Educational institutions are encouraged to respect and promote student autonomy in deciding the nature of their Spring Break activities, ensuring that the spirit and intent of this right are genuinely realized.

Section IVIII: Spring Break Grants

1. The Senate of the Republic of Atlasia hereby establishes the "Spring Break Empowerment Grant" to enhance the spring break experience for its student citizens, with an annual allocation of $20 billion dedicated exclusively for this purpose.

2. A significant portion of the allocated funds shall be directed to airline services, assisting them in managing the increased spring break traffic and enabling them to offer more affordable air travel options for students during the period.

3. To ensure the sustainability and continuity of the Spring Break Empowerment Grant, commerce taxes will undergo a 5% increase during the spring break season, leveraging the boost in tourism and commerce. This increment in revenue will be reinvested into the grant for future years.

Section VIV: Enactment

This act shall take effect immediately upon ~~approval~~signing by the President.
