Bill: IP Essential Services Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Imperialist Party
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: September 2385
Description[?]:
| This act removes the right to strike of certain sectors that are essential to the functioning of the nation. While the right to strike is important, some services - the police, doctors, etc. are so vital that to allow them to strike would simply make the nation beholden to them. When they don't come in to work - people die, this is not acceptable. |
