I wrote "A Bill to Protect the Right to Vote"! Proud to see it debated!

[@thebionicvet8674]

I made to bill to build a space elevator. Unfortunately, it wasn't chosen for the nationals docket.

@@thebionicvet8674 surprising given the quality of some of these bills😜

[@thebionicvet8674]

​@@Atxcmtb in my area, someone made "A resolution to encourage California to significantly increase it's CO2 emissions to aid efforts of sinking it into the Pacific ocean". It was just an entire page of complaining about the poverty and homelessness rates before dramatically claiming the state to be a lost cause.

@@thebionicvet8674 actually so real for that, my team has a bill to give every man in the US a trad wife to decrease inceldom, and a bill to remove the role of the President to prevent executive abuse

[@thebionicvet8674]

​@@Atxcmtb Those are awesome bills! I wish I could debate those!

Pog

[@tommyluis8816]

Question: When you refer to NSDA link what is that for? I know that it is special to each PO but it wasn’t exactly specific stated. I really like how you have trigger warnings for when you are PO. Great PO all around would recommend to local members 🦵.

It’s to track precedence and recency, so basically who gets to speak first and how many times people have spoken.
