Veto

This bill is hereby vetoed for the following reasons:
- I consulted with cabinet and we agree that the definition of impersonation is much too vague.
- Cabinet also agrees that with roles and usernames, this bill really isn't needed as staff manage who is in what position. There's no real way to impersonate a government official as an individual cannot change their own roles.
