Bill: Restoration of the Jewish Homeland
Details
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill requests an early election. It requires more than half of the legislature to vote yes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: January 2517
Description[?]:
| "The fact that these laws were allowed to pass is not just something we disagree with but in Beiteynu, a Jewish Homeland, is nothing short of treason. We propose an immediate rectification of this travesty to bring the Motherland back in line with the Declaration of Jewish Emancipation (http://80.237.164.51/particracy/main/viewbill.php?billid=133690). It is time we brought this unconstitutional and oppressive pseudo government crashing to the ground and restored the glory that is the Sixth Jewish Homeland." -- Josef Nehushtan |
