Esteemed fellow Senators:
Senator Mhà Introduces Himself to the Senate.
Before commencing my inaugural address to this estimable body, I pause to reflect on the extreme good fortune that has befallen me, and which has allowed me to find myself in your midst. With a profound sense of humility, I salute my colleagues and say that while the nation has selected me to act with you here as your peer, I admit to a definite sense and knowledge of my inadequacy when placed into in the company of such distinguished Talossans as yourselves.
Senator Mhà Bloviates.
The business of the Kingdom stands before us, and we in the Senate rise to meet it unafraid. With one eye firmly focused on the proud traditions and customs of our nation's past, and the other on the brilliant future awaiting it, we now seat ourselves to take up the legislative agenda given us by the Secretary of State.
Senator Mhà's Position on 35RZ20.
The first question before us is a proposal to repeal the Talossan Canon of Laws Act, and to rely on the judgement of the Scribe of Abbavilla to determine and effect the orderly upkeep of L'Annuntzia del Legeu. I stand firmly in favor of this proposal, and I ask my fellow Senators to join me in giving it their support. If any Senator perceives that in repealing the COLA, any necessary legislative instruction to the Scribery is being lost, I wish to allay such fears by disclosing at this time my intention to soon place into the Hopper, for consideration by the third Clark, a bill to clarify the powers, duties, and responsibilities of each Officer of the Royal Household. Senators fearing any loss of legislative mandate for the Scribe by the proposed repeal of the COLA will be able to address any such concerns by assisting, in the Hopper process, with the proper formation of what I am tentatively entitling "The Royal Household Cleaning Act." Once again, I ask my colleagues to support 35RZ20.
Senator Mhà's Position on 35RZ21.
The second item for our consideration is a proposed clarification of the connection between our nation's civil and criminal law and that of our neighboring nation. This proposal, laid before us by the newest Justice of the Uppermost Cort, is one which I support without reservation. I ask my fellow Senators to join me in acting to pass 35RZ21.
Senator Mhà's Position on 35RZ22.
The third bill to be considered is one which will put the immigration system of our nation on a sound footing. As the principal sponsor of this resolution, I ask my fellow Senators for their support in securing its passage. This act has been the subject of constructive debate, which has caused a great number of beneficial modifications and amendments to be made to its text. My name is appended to it as he who prays its passage, but the act as drafted is now the work of many hands, and one which I am far more proud to claim than were it in its original form. The pre-submission debate and discussion process, has, I believe, proven itself through its effect on this proposal, and it is my strong feeling that The Umpteenth Immigration Reform Act has, through this process, reached a state in which the entire nation, having been made party through their elected representatives to its construction, modification, and preparation for Clarking, has expressed for it their hearty general approval. Fellow Senators, I ask for an affirmative vote on 35RZ22.
Senator Mhà's Position on 35RS1.
The final item we will consider in this session is Senator Metáiriâ's proposal that we recommend Sir John Woolley to the King and his Regent for appointment as Chancellor of the Royal Talossan Bar. My position on this action is as strongly in favor as a position can possibly be. Among the eligible candidates, it is my personal belief that Sir John stands alone. I do not exaggerate when I say that without Sir John, the Bar would seem empty. I ask my fellow Senators to vote with me to send Sir John's name to the Regent to effect the appointment.
Senator Mhà on the Leaderhip of the Senate.
Before we vote on the resolutions before us, fellow Senators, it is imcumbent upon us, as mandated by Article V, Section 8 of the Organic Law, to elect one of our number to serve as the Mençéi (Lord President) of our chamber. I hereby offer into nomination the name of the esteemed and revered Senator Castiglhâ, and I ask Senators Felici and Metáiriâ to vote with me to give the Senate the strong and firm hand of leadership that our colleague the Senator for Mussolini can provide.
Senator Mhà's Remarks on the Hopper Proposal.
Before yielding the floor, I wish to remark on my disappointment that the proposal offered by MC Justice Lorentz, termed "The Hopper Act," was not Clarked for our consideration in the current session. It is my strong hope -- founded on the success that I believe is apparent by the effect of the Hopper process on the Umpteenth Immigration Reform Act and other acts which have been, are being, and will be drafted using this process, despite it not yet being mandated by law -- that The Hopper Act will be brought before us in the third Clark, so that all proposed legislation shall in future be vetted through the Hopper.
Senator Mhà Yields the Floor.
Senators, reserving the right to revise and extend my remarks, I yield the floor.
