And next week...

A RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF Virginia Tech: The ASUC again pushes the definition of "support."

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the ASUC Senate hold a moment of reflection and thought, to be administered by the Executive Vice President at the start of the next regularly scheduled Senate meeting.

Okay, then. Relief funds? Covering counseling costs? No, not that kind of support.

A RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF The Right to Give Life: The ASUC will "demand" the FDA change its policy preventing gay men from donating blood. It'll also help advertise the "Right to Give Life Blood Drive."

ASUC Resolution Calling for Review of the BP-UC Berkeley EBI Dea1: Yes, that's a one. As you might expect, it's a resolution doing the same whining the GA did earlier about something-or-other on the BP deal. It's the first bill in the bill packets that I've seen that has footnotes.

A Bill in Support of the May 1st Immigrants Rights Demonstrations at UC Berkeley and Around the World: This, I guess, calls for a student strike or something at Cal. I have no clue why Cal needs to be... uh... "striked" against. I do know that professors love student strikes.

How about a bill in support of helping current students? oh wait, the ASUC doesn't seem to care about that.

Here's the newsflash you mentioned to me earlier Beetle. Seems appropriate:

ASUC Fights Fire with Paper
Kenny Byerly, Misfortune Cookie, Vol. 10 Iss. 6
ASUC senators this week passed a bill requesting that UC Berkeley students "please stop getting caught in fires," along with formally condemning those who do. Actually dying in fires is particularly frowned upon in the hard-hitting bill, which offers more lenient disapproval for those who successfully escape fires by jumping out second-floor windows.

"Home fires in Berkeley are becoming all too common this year." said ASUC President Alex Ding, who felt the student government should do its part to prevent further blazes. "The ASUC stands united as an organization firmly opposed to tragedy," Ding added, lauding the bill as a welcome return to relevant Senate business which directly benefits students.
