Eleanor was overwhelmed by the passage of the bill, taking out several tissues to clear some tears. Then, taking several mints out of her purse, she handed them to several around her, thanking them. She saved one though and looked over to Appleby. But before she left her seat to greet him, she stood up.

"I second that motion."

After speaking, she went over to the Michiganite.

"Thank you for not going too hard on me on my bill just now. Here's a mint."

"Hmm." Appleby accepted the mint, turning it over in his hand, and then slicing the nail of his index finger across it, creating a gouge. He rotated the small candy, pinching between the thumb and index finger of his left hand to begin attempting to saw it in half with the thumbnail of his right hand.

"You're welcome," he absent-mindedly offered.

Morton: "Nay."

Morton had no real objection to the proposed legislation itself, but was anxious to get to the DACA bill- just yesterday the Daily Republic had released an editorial calling on him to make sure Dreamers were protected.

The New York Representative had returned to her seat from the brief exchange with Appleby, finishing a small mint in her mouth. Upon returning to her seat, she decided to try her chances.

"I move to suspend all necessary rules and procedures to take up the "Hard Money Bill," Appleby stated.

He had successfully sawed the mint in half via application of keratin, and was now working on dividing it into quarters, idly thinking that he ought to have asked the mint-giving woman if she wanted to sign on to his sex-change surgery bill, but dismissed the moment as passed.

"I second the motion." Representative Freeman said, before taking a deep breath for the lengthy word-salad that would ensue. "For the Transparency and End for Nonprofit Organizations and their Political Agendas Act." He added, with a deep exhale.

House Floor


Seeing no support materializing for his Hard Money Bill, Appleby eventually decided to put up another.

Official Name: Sex-Change Coverage Act


Overview: Covers the cost of sex-change operations.

Section 1: Sex-Change Operations are defined as procedures, including physical surgeries and hormone treatments, designed to change a person's physical sex.

Section 2: The federal government of the United States shall reimburse any licensed operator who performs or provides a sex-change operation in the United States for the full cost of the operation, without charge to the patient, once the operation or operations are complete.

Section 3: The Secretary of Health and Human Services may cancel reimbursement if the amount charged by the licensed operator is proven to be excessively greater than the market rate without justification.

Section 4: All federal restrictions on a patient receiving a sex-change operation, including diagnosis and referral restrictions, are removed for any patient at or above the age of consent.

This bill is then honorably presented to the House for consideration in order to cover sex-change operations to improve the United States Law, and is backed by Appleby on July 3, 2017


"Mr. Speaker, I'm adding this bill to the docket, and I move to suspend all necessary rules to take it up."

Eleanor was furious with the entire situation and if she was seated closer to the Illinois Representative, she would have strangled him.

Morton: "Seconded." This too, was an important bill for his district- particularly the bicycle loving youth of UC Davis.

He'd have to hold a town hall there one day, and if he was going to be yelled at and called a good-for-nothing, he wanted to have a clear response. And a bicycle.
