Bill: Working-Class Solidarity
Details
Submitted by[?]: Saiserist League
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: February 2501
Description[?]:
| "Divisions amongst trade unions are the tools of the capitalists used to keep worker's down. All workingmen have a right to solidarity, and if their brothers are being mistreated they should be allowed to act together to bring positive change. Massive sympathy strikes are the only way to make a strike effective, and finally place a few cards in the hands of the working-class. This will increase confidence in our workers and boost productivity. Make the right decision, and thank you for your time." -Daniel Vladimirovich Feterokov, in the proposition speech to the National Directory |
