Before discussion begins, I would like to bring to everyone's attention that RZ7 - was altered from the Bill that was presented in the Hopper.
The original Bill asked "King John I to consider granting to Edward Snowden a peerage." to it's current wording - " MOREOVER the nation asks the Ziu and the Senate to consider giving to Edward Snowden the Senatorial Medal of Honour ..."
That change was not discussed while the Bill was still in the Hopper.

Esteemed Senators, I urge a unanimous PËR vote of this house for the reforms to "3 Strikes" and "returning renouncees" citizenship laws, contained in constitutional amendments RZ12-13, endorsed by a cross-party consensus in the Hopper.
As to the other bills: I'm abstaining on RZ7 because, while I'm all in favour of freedom of information, I don't think Edward Snowden deserves a medal; I'm abstaining on RZ8 because it looks like legalistic trivia to me; and supporting RZ11 because it means that prospective citizens get protection of the law (prohibiting the slander/abuse/blackballing campaigns that were common in KR1's era).

If I may ask a question for the Senator from Fiôvâ -
Dame Miestrâ - what if the person in question is not a immigrant/prospective citizen? Should the protection extend to the visitors, that have no intention of ever being a Citizen?

If I visit the United States, I expect to be protected by US law, so, I suppose, yes. But I am also under the jurisdiction of US law, so if I act the goat I can be deported.

so if I act the goat I can be deported. But honestly, what else can be expected from the ZRT leader?
