It would be nice if you edit your original comment to note that you are not talking about what is in the bill, merely what ought to be. It's misleading as is.

Is there a particular statement in the bill you deem wrong?

No it isn’t. It excludes almost everyone.

That bill is an embarrassment. Doing something about that is kind of exactly what I’m talking about.

I am curious, where is that language in the actual bill?

macintux | karma 16051 | avg karma 2.7 · | 2022-09-22 10:32:53

Can you expand on what you feel is wrong with the bill?

gruez | karma 34333 | avg karma 2.33 · | 2024-04-29 12:30:50

Which part of the bill says that?

olalonde | karma 25101 | avg karma 4.21 · | 2022-06-03 05:16:36

To be fair, the bill's summary at the top is spectacularly misleading.

remram | karma 7409 | avg karma 1.74 · | 2022-09-01 10:11:50

I might have missed that part of the bill, do you have a quote?

bentlegen | karma 3641 | avg karma 7.52 · | 2012-04-27 02:36:38+00:00

Can you give me an excerpt from the bill? The summary doesn't seem to cover this.

I have never heard this particular angle on this bill, and would hope that it's wrong. Can someone confirm/deny with some references?

rexpop | karma 832 | avg karma 0.7 · | 2022-06-29 00:53:25

At first glance, the bill doesn't seem to say what this article says it does. I'm not sure to what passages they refer.

Bedon292 | karma 1756 | avg karma 2.06 · | 2017-02-09 16:47:54

One could argue that the original title as misleading. As it does not say what the bill actually does. In this case a plain English description of the results seems reasonable.

FYI: i heard about that in a news article, I didn't actually read the bill.

I'm nitpicking, I know, but "act" ought to be amended "bill" in the third paragraph. Apologies for being such a pedant.

trowawee | karma 1626 | avg karma 4.55 · | 2017-02-09 16:21:10+00:00

No, it's a plain English description of what the bill actually does.

tradewinds | karma 22 | avg karma 1.05 · | 2023-06-29 22:01:23

So isn't that in favour of what this bill is attempting to accomplish?

wahnfrieden | karma 6701 | avg karma 1.65 · | 2023-03-29 15:50:56

Not what this bill is about. You got tricked by the surrounding rhetoric and you're repeating it like propaganda.

mcphage | karma 6965 | avg karma 1.37 · | 2020-12-18 18:08:24+00:00

> If you don't like it, change it.

That's what this bill is about.

No it doesn't, that's the whole point of this bill.

cauliflower99 | karma 589 | avg karma 3.64 · | 2023-05-08 17:36:13

If you read the proposed bill, you will see your statement is incorrect.
