Bill: Homosexual Rights
Details

Status[?]: defeated
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: February 2442
Description[?]:
| The time for ignorance and homophobia is over. I realize this bill will most likely fail. However, for some reason my "Civil Rights" stance is Restrictive, which is completely untrue. Furthermore, it is important to make the newer parties aware of where the larger parties stand on this issue. |
