Bill: Arms sales
Details

Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Description[?]:
| Presently we sell arms to any and all comers. The ULP thinks this is a dangerous tactic. While the ULP has enjoyed peace for many years, one day we may find ourselves not so fortunate, and when that day comes, would we not be foolish to be attacked with weapons that we in fact created? |
