| Message | No-one has voiced any views on these bills, it is because you agree with them or simply dont understand how the debate phase works, the latter i would guess from your over enthusiastic bills being launched without a seconds consideration and clogging up the senate. Leave bills in debate so that they can pass. Activate automatic subscription to bills in the messages menu so that you actually know whats going on, and if you can confidently launch one bill dont do ten. |
