MessageWe've been fighting for years to get to 501 - which was the number of seats we had in Jelbania for a long time. We're not sure how we'll vote, but we're leaning toward yes.

MessageThis bill brings the representation allowance to the max, allowing more representation to the people, and large represenatation actually works, even in countries with larger legislatures. (OOC: U.K, PRC, France (both the lower and upper houses), Germany, Italy, Japan, just to name a few.) So to show this system really works, and in fact brings greater power to the people. This lowers the amount of representatives per people to 1 representative to about 230,000 people. Currently you would expect it would be much higher, actually its around 346,000 people per representative. This figure is really high, and it is unnecessary to have the representation differences that high. Now the system of a larger legislature works, it is evidently needed, and I urge all my colleagues in the Assemble National to support this bill. Thank you.

MessageWhy must the larger legislature act be defeated? The CUF of course stands by their effort to act a dissent to everything, but I am aimed more towards the RCF and LGPERO. What is your major discrepincies associated with this act?
