[DEFEATED] Repeal of Rights and Duties of WA States

[Thermodolia]

It is finally dead!

Not necessarily. The Keshilandians could reintroduce it to WA. The Gensec ruled it as legal, even if just barely, and a concerted delegate campaign could conceivably manage to get it to the floor.

The last time one of these repeals got to a vote it was soundly defeated

Some of us weren't around for the whole "Legalizing Prostitution" debacle.

Those of us can call themselves lucky.

Pass, repeal, blocker, and repeal blocker attempt in 3 months was insane, and I never want to be apart of that ever again.

OOC: World. Space. Administration.

[Secundus Imperium Romanum]

Giulia Maccini: That's a stupid idea, it's practically destroying the World Assembly and its rules, we're going to vote against it.

[Separatist Peoples]

Ooc: Why was this resubmitted? There have been no alteratioms, edits, or changes in the voting climate to suggest any material change in the outcome.

[Grays Harbor]

Ooc: Why was this resubmitted? There have been no alteratioms, edits, or changes in the voting climate to suggest any material change in the outcome.

OOC: Because Keshiland has demonstrated a consistent ability to disregard pretty much any and all advise?

[The New California Republic]

OOC: This was actually resubmitted? Really, Keshiland, really? Repeatedly resubmitting the same proposal with no changes is just as distasteful - if not more so - as submitting a ton of crappy proposals in the hope that one will slip through. Even if, IF, this reaches quorum, it doesn't stand a chance, as a lot of delegates have already said they will vote against it.

OOC: If you want to waste time and money using mass telegrams to merely give this proposal a snowflake's chance in hell of succeeding, then that is your prerogative I suppose...

It hasn't worked. Don't say it did until it does.

OOC: It's not my impression that an appeal to reason (Or honesty?) is effective here...

[The Greater Siriusian Domain]

Teran Saber: "What was that one thing I said about bad proposals and Siriusian Credits?"

Ra'lingth: "You sssaid you'd have enough to quit your job, sssir."

Teran Saber: "Yeah, that. Anyway, even if this proposal makes it to vote, I guarantee it will never pass. No nation would be willing to give up its sovereignty to the World Assembly completely. The World Assembly is an international council to ensure the protection of the rights and safety of individuals and to legislate over that which lies outside national jurisdiction. It does not need to be turned into its own nation. If you want an NWO, take it up with the Siriusian Imperialist Movement - oh wait, they disbanded thousands of years ago."

[The Sheika]

Cause I telegraphed my campaign for it to all delicates and it worked

Yes, you resorted to a telegram campaign. Has it worked? *checks approval count* Eh...fifty-seven so far. I think the pretense that you campaigned is a little weak, but if you're satisfied with that stance, it's your repeal attempt. It is a little early to say "it worked" seeing as you could still make quorum but lose when it goes to an actual vote.

As it stands, I do not support a repeal.

OOC: If it was as well-written as most of your posts here, I really have to wonder...

EDIT: Also, please please don't resubmit it yet again without fixing the language of the proposal, it reads like something written by an 11-year-old with severe linguistic impairment.

OOC: Nonsense. It's perfectly legal to do this, and if for some reason the author can't manage a campaign then trying to accumulate support gradually through repeated exposure is probably the only way by which they can hope to get their proposal to the floor.
AFAIK the record is fifteen times, which was for a 'historical' proposal (before stamps, and probably before anybody had produced a campaigning script, but I think not before TG campaigning was possible)... and that did pass.

It was produced by Enn (who happened to be an IDU member).

OOC: I never questioned its legality, I questioned whether it is tasteful to do so. I know perfectly well that it is legal to resubmit. I have no problem with resubmission, if it is a well written, meaningful, and constructive proposal. However, if the proposal that is being resubmitted is complete crap, with spelling mistakes, punctuation errors, no real content, and ignoring all sound advice, then that is entirely different...

Sorry, I'm not a native speaker of the English language — but what does "this resolution fails to relies" mean?

It means the author of the repeal couldn't be bothered to proofread it. I believe the intended passage is "fails to realize".
