| "WHEREAS, Senator Forte has demeaned the uniformed sentients of the New Republic's planetary defense forces, has insulted and slandered the name and reputation of certain Senators, based on "rumors" without attribution, and has introduced Imperial propaganda into the chamber without attribution, has promoted measures of immoderate federalism, incompatible with the Common Charter, and has misused for political purposes the Council on the Common Defense, of which he is Chairman, THEREFORE, the Senate reprimands Senator Forte for conduct unbecoming of a Senator, for the actions aforestated, and warns him to refrain from such conduct henceforth or be subject to suspension, revocation of his Chairmanship, or both." I vote in favor of the resolution. I also ask the Chief of State for a formal vote, with a set time limit. Senator Sir Reuke Cambrist, Brentaal
Chairman of the Commerce Council

| I do not need to exaggerate on this issue as Senator Cambrist has already spoken of Senator Forte's misbehavior cues. I will simply put my vote in favor of Senator Cambrist's suggested warning for Senator Forte. It is unfortunate it had to be like this, I expect Senator Forte to behave more properly from this point on. Tremaine Fowlkes,
Senator of Mowgle

| Very well. This will be a formal vote, that will expire at 8:00 PM PST on 30 June. That said, I must vote against the measure because, while I do not condone Senator Forte's more controversial remarks, I don't think that a censure resolution is necessary at this point. I have spoken with the Senator in private, and made clear that his behavior of late is not acceptable for someone of his position, and it is my judgment that he understands this. He has made mistakes, yes, but so have we all, and having read the transcript of his speech, I believe that his apology is genuine. I hope he has learned from this experience, and if he has not then of course I will support a measure such as this one at that time. Eli Fitzgerald

| Neimoidia votes in favour of the Censure of Senator Forte for his unkind and simply racist statements, especially his 'slippery as a dug' one as he left the Senate last week. He is a simple racist and while he has apologised must be reminded not to re-offend.
