Yet again, the Senate Rotunda brimmed with activity as the vote was called to session for the impending commerce and trade act. Unlike previous Senate Votes, Gregory sat in his chair prior to the session being called to order. He sat at his booth, reviewing the notes of the bill in its current form. So many Senators had massive opinions regarding it, and he could only hope for the sake of the sponsors that whatever changes they saw fit to bring about would sway those on the fence.
It was of little consequence to Gregory when it was all said and done, aside from his general interest in empowering the Grand Army of the Republic in any way he could to face the Sith threat. Hopefully those within the Rotunda today would see the need for that in this day and age.
Without further delay, the speaker stamped his mighty staff, and called the Senate to order. Thereafter, Gregory rose and approached the Dais, clearing his throat before formally beginning the Session. "Today's session has now begun, with the vote for the Commercial and Trade Defense Act pending decision. The Chair now recognizes Senator Hummux Det of Falleen to relate the bill in it's entirety, along with any changes made thereof since the hearing. Thereafter, he may make an opening argument for the bill, and cast his vote. The Co sponsor shall make his opening statement and cast his vote as well, then the chair will in turn recognize each Senator to make their statements and cast their votes."
After a brief pause, he turned to Senator Det, and gave him a nod to proceed.
