Bill: National Anthem Act of 2462
Details
Submitted by[?]: 帝国公明党 (Teikoku Kōmeitō)
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: December 2462
Description[?]:
The DSP does not believe in forcing children to acknowledge the national anthem, as it is an unfree thing to enforce. A child may not like the wording of the national anthem, or not want to have to sit doing nothing for the time it takes to say it, and as it is, lets face it, it takes awhile to say our national anthem, or they may just not like the meaning it holds, whatever the case they should not be forced to acknowledge it. Therefore the DSP proposes that children are never forced to sing or acknowledge the national anthem if they so choose not to. |
