Death Penalty Abolition Act

[JohnFKennedy]

P.S.  We'll do votes through polls right?

No, we have an elected Senate to vote on these things.

[JohnFKennedy]

I will call a vote upon this Act tomorrow in accordance with the Senatorial Procedure Resolution

[JohnFKennedy]

I move to extend debate on this issue, in accordance with the Senatorial Proceduce Resolution.

Seconded (Three other Senators need declare support for extended debating).

[JohnFKennedy]

It has been a week since debating upon this Act commenced and the motion to extend debating has not reached the necessary support of five Senators.

I would now like to call a vote on the Act proposed by the honourable Sen. Hughento.

Please vote Yea or Nay.

[JohnFKennedy]

Now this is a bill I needed a bit of consideration on.

I would like for the regions to decide on capital punishment really, just like the states do in real life which urges me to vote nay, but I am very ambivalent of allowing the death penalty to continue.

I hope to have reached a decision by the end of the day.

[JohnFKennedy]

I have come to a decision, I vote nay on this act, I would like to leave this up to the regions, I also think there should be some exceptions, e.g. terrorism, treason.

[JohnFKennedy]

With Michael Z's vote coming in the Death Penalty Abolition Act has passed the Senate by six votes to three. It now awaits the President's signature.
