Bill: Humility Act 2529
Details
Submitted by[?]: Coalition for National Unity [CNU]
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This bill asks for an amendement to the Constitution. It will require two-thirds of the legislature to vote in favor. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: August 2530
Description[?]:
The CMP, in an effort to encourage humility in the Presidential office, suggests a few minor changes that could do alot to improve the image of the Office of the Executive. * Supreme President: We argue that the President is not "supreme". He is a democratically elected individual, in short; First among Equals. * Senate: A chamber of Representatives is much more appropriate, not a Roman-esque "Senate" lead by a Emperor. |

Message | We prefer the terms President and Parliament. But this is a minor point of contention. The titles suggested by the CMP are vastly preferrable to what we have now. |
