Details
Submitted by[?]: VonkajÅ¡Ãci
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This bill proposes to change the allocation of funds in the budget. It requires more than half of the legislature to vote yes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: March 2437
Description[?]:
| http://www.takeforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4089&start=720&mforum=particracy As the civilian police forces have proven themselves to be incapable of defending our great nation from the sickening and cowardly grip of Kafuristani terrorism, drastic action will have to be taken. The civilian police forces will be immediately suspended, with the military taking over the role of civil peacekeeping. Martial Law shall be declared. We hope all parties in Deltaria will put aside their differences and work together in this time of national emergency. |
