Bill: CA National Service Compromise
Details
Submitted by[?]: Conservative Alliance
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: July 2373
Description[?]:
| Once again showing our commitment to improving Telamon's youth, we are proposing a less extreme system of national service to that of the so-called Republican Party. Although we doubt this bill will be passed, we feel the issue is one that the public have the right to know about and should be brought into the public eye. |

| Message | We support this Act absolutely. National service is essential, especially since we provide our citizens as a community with so many opportunities, it's important that each individual returns the service to the Commonwealth. |

| Date | 02:22:06, March 12, 2007 CET | From | Imperialist Party | To | Debating the CA National Service Compromise |
| Message | The Imperialist Party will support this act. It does conflict with our "ready aye ready" act, but the chances of that bill passing are about as likely as one is to find teats on a bull. |

| Random fact: Players who consent to a particular role-play by acknowledging it in their own role-play cannot then disown it or withdraw their consent from it. For example, if player A role-plays the assassination of player B's character, and player B then acknowledges the assassination in a news post, but then backtracks and insists the assassination did not happen, then he will be required under the rules to accept the validity of the assassination role-play. |
