CANNABIS LEGALIZATION ACT VETO BY GOVERNOR BRANDT

 

 

Governor Brandt has issued a VETO in regard to the legislation, halting the progress of the bill and subsequent enactment. The VETO has been forwarded to the President Pro Tempore of the Senate for review.

 

January 2021, the Senate of the State of San Andreas convened to discuss and vote on a bill leading to the legalization of marijuana, following the Cannabis Legalization Act of 2021.

 

"A bill to establish control protocols and regulatory process for the introduction of medicinal use and adult-use/recreational cannabis in San Andreas." 

 

The Senate joined together at Alta State hall for the discussion, where numerous witnesses also came forth to offer their professional opinions on the bill. The discussion was open to the public and saw a number enter the hall to bear witness. Dr. Danielle Shaw among those present, gave her educated opinion on the matter.

 

The bill was pushed for a full Senate vote following the discussion, whereby all Senators voted “Yea” in favour of the bill, after some deliberation in house.

 

Following a final voting period, with again all Senators voting in favour to pass the bill, President Ernst concluded, passing the bill and referring it further to the Governor’s desk where at this time the bill has been subject to a VETO by Governor Brandt.

DIRECTOR OF THE LOS SANTOS PORT AUTHORITY APPOINTED

 

In February 2021, the State of San Andreas formally recognises the new Director of Port Authority, Hank Preston, appointed by Secretary of Labor, Diane Renwick, who was most recently appointed into her position after her confirmation hearing on January 16th, 2021.

Starting out as a machinery operator and general laborer for the Department of Labor, Hank soon made his way through the ranks during a fourteen-year career and was promoted to an Administrator for his seniority and leadership capabilities.

Hank served as an Administrator for another six years, overseeing various state projects before being appointed as the Director of the San Andreas Port Authority. Hank has been recognized by the Secretary of Labor for his efforts and management skills in the Department of Labor.

 

A department under the Department of Labor, the port is an impressive 7,500 acres with 42 miles of waterfront. Director Preston will oversee the growing port, including the on-going recruitment process in which the Port will see a gathering of new laborers, maintenance, and support workers.

 

On his appointment, Mr. Preston talked about his plans moving forward after his appointment. He acknowledges the current position of the workforce and the efforts that will be coming in the future to improve the workplace, stating:

Quote

"The first thing I'm going to have to tackle is the chaos. Things have been left in disarray since the previous Director resigned. We've seen unprecedented delays in cargo and people threatening to strike. I need to make sure the Port is safe for everyone, things come to order and our workers are getting the benefits they need. Once we solve those issues, then we'll start to see real progress."

Secretary of Labor Diane Renwick previously spoke of the on-going initiative to revamp and re-think the operations at the Port of Los Santos, a step forward evident here in the appointment of Mr. Preston for directorship. Mrs Renwick commented on Mr. Preston’s appointment, stating:

Quote

“Hank Preston has nearly two decades of experience in this sector and I stand by him being the right person to be the flag bearer for reform and change for the Port of Los Santos.”
