I forgot that I might effect the delegate's vote on this bill. I change my vote to abstain.
To answer your question, yes, I don't think this bill is well edited. I don't like the "for example" part, which is primarily why I'm voting against it!
Horrendous words to be found in a WA resolution. Also, I don't think its operative terms are as strong as the author purports the bill to be (Strength: Significant)... I don't see that.
Otherwise, it looks great.

i.e.
I call for a formal debate and vote to be held on this amendment :I'm_kidding:

I am no longer defending this bill. Now, I would like you to recommend ideas to improve it. For instance, the most senior citizens can be appointed and then do absolutely nothing for forty-nine days--I would not have thought of that possibility without this important conversation.
So if you...
The personal touch comes from the fact that the Senior Citizens are self-selecting. People who've got a lot to offer would have two, and let me point out not mutually exclusive, options: join the MHA and participate in the CCC, eventually as a Senior Citizen.
How members are recruited and...
