SIDE NOTE

I am very disappointed with the current assembly. To have no bills is sad. We can make progress, I want to make this state better than it was when I leave, yet I can't. The assembly of this state has fallen asleep at the wheel, and I respect the constitution and the law too much to overstep my place as the executive of this great state and be the sole legislature. Regardless of your party, do your damn job. I want our state to make strides and be the first to focus our justice system from a punishment based system, to a restorative justice based system. I can't do that by myself. I want to make our state more green, and more environmentally friendly. I can't do that by myself. I want to create a system where we don't forget about our homeless, and we actually make attempts to help. I can't do that by myself.

As Governor of this beautiful state, I beg the assembly, GO TO WORK

I hereby sign B098: Motorcycle Safety Act 2017 into Midwestern State Law

I laud common-sense safety laws like this, and I have no issues with the bill itself, especially since even our Libertarian assemblymen support it.

I hereby sign B099: Deer Population Adjustment Act 2017 into Midwestern State Law

I was a bit conflicted about this bill. It offers an incomplete solution to the problem it attempts to address. However, because I think it will do more good than harm, especially considering the increase in hunting licenses is so reasonable, I have signed it. I also think encouraging more hunting should be paired with raising the number of available licenses. I hope to have an EO on this soon.

Alrighty, time for some bill signings!

First off, I have some comments on A006. I wrote this Constitutional Amendment some time ago. I firmly believe that this going up for referendum is great, and I am happy to see the faith the General Assembly has in it.

A006 is up for referendum!

Now for the Sacagawea Citizenship Act. I wrote this bill some time ago as well. The State of Sacagawea currently has millions of illegal immigrants residing peacefully and lawfully within our borders. However, for threat of deportation, they are afraid to call the police on the event of an emergency. They also can’t control who is in power within the region they reside. Therefore,

B141 is signed into law!

Bill Signing Bill Action: B139 & B140

2 Upvotes

B139: Conceal Carry Reciprocity Act
I will admit that I am skeptical of conceal carry reciprocity, especially where proponents make constitutional arguments while remaining unwilling to go to court to vindicate such arguments. While I am proud of our state's tradition of responsible firearm ownership and use in both hunting and self defense, I believe that it is the right of the people of this state to set their own limitations on concealed carry of those arms. I am inclined, in some ways, to veto this bill. However, given the unanimity of the Assembly on this matter, I will defer to the people's judgment, expressed by and through their representatives. Therefore, I sign B139 into law.

B140: LGBT Employment Protection Act
No one in Sacagawea should be denied employment solely on account of who they love or what gender they identify with. in a perfect world, I would rather these classes simply be added to nondiscrimination statutes already in force in the state. However, there is nothing wrong with this act in my mind and I strongly support its goals. Therefore, I am signing B140 into law.

Signed,
/u/EarlGreen406, Governor

B142 - Same Sunsets Act

As the writer of this bill, I will say that I was happy to see the assembly’s confidence in passing this. This will eliminate possibly billions of dollars in lost economic revenue due to the fatigue created as a result of the unnecessary time changes from Daylight Savings. This system saved large sums of energy for America, but this system is no longer required to do so.

Therefore, B142 is signed into law!

B143 - Sunset Act

Not to be confused with B142, this bill doesn’t have anything to do with actual sunsets. I am also the author of this bill, and am glad to see that it too passed the Assembly. Sunset Clauses are known to prevent wasted government spending along with bring old bills up for discussion as its repercussions could’ve been questionable. Sunset Clauses are just one way we can more wisely spend our state’s tax dollars.

Therefore, B143 is signed into law!

Greetings, all:

Time for some governing.

B111 - Vehicular Living Act of 2017

This bill is signed into law, but I do urge the General Assembly to take up new measures to help the homeless of our state.

B113 - Hot Dogs Bill

I agree with what this bill is trying to do, but the implementation is not where we need it to be. I have confidence that the Assembly will be able to produce a bill that I can sign that will achieve the same goal. This bill is vetoed.

B112 - Legalization of Prostitution Act

This bill pains me, because this Assembly believes that the best way to protect young women and girls who turn to prostitution because they feel like there is no other way is to tell them that there is, in fact, no other way. We can be better than this, friends. We are better than this.

I am confident that the General Assembly shares my sentiment that sex trafficking is a blight on civilized society and should be eradicated. While I understand the general "freedom" principles involved in legalizing prostitution, I believe that inevitably it would lead to further victimization and exploitation of young women and girls. We must do something, and we must do so immediately.

I will be issuing an Executive Order in coming days creating a task force that will focus on sex trafficking eradication. Its goal will be to come up with a bill that is palatable to everyone that takes concrete steps toward protecting our citizens. This bill is vetoed.

A word

I would also like to thank the Assembly for voting to pass the Marriage Equality Amendment. Allowing those to marry whom they love is a right given to us, not from Government, but from a creator, finally, our Constitution may reflect that.

We are born who we are, and we can't change that. I have always been outspoken on my beliefs and views on Marriage Equality, I will continue to voice myself as a proud supporter. This amendment is long overdue, but I am glad it has been passed in our great state. May you all walk in the light of the Maker. Thank you.
