hey maggie, its meredith....i didn't know you were doing cgi. Thats cool, are you going on the retreat? Your class has completely different summer assignments than what my class and the classes before mine had. We had to make up a government and a few other things, but i remember a few of the teachers saying they weren't going to do that again.
for the sections in the bill, do we have to write things that CGI can do? or just anything that can be done about the situation or whatever. because i did mine on voting, and how not enough young people vote, and i focused specifically on montclair, and said what CGI could do. Yeah I'm confused.
I don't remember what I wrote for my ammendment...I don't even know if I did it right.
no the bill is not supposed to have anything to do with CGI.
when we present our own bills, it's gonna be in either the House of Representatives or the Senate (we're gonna be role-playing that we're in the Congress) -- so, don't put anything in first person or anything about CGI or Montclair.
also, it's supposed to enact something. not just say that not enough people vote. even if you made that bill correctly, what's it gonna do? force people to vote? that's a violation of people's rights to do whatever the hell they want. so, i'd pick something else.
remember, if your bill passes (in theory) - if we weren't just a bunch of high school students, it'd be added to the Constitution of the USA as an ammendment.
and also, i was having problems with my ammendment too.. so don't worry.. i think most people did. i don't get how every person is supposed to come up with something to add to the constitution..
