Message | We see no real reason to make the changes in Art. 2, but we also see no purpose behind the current law. If it is only issued but not carried what purpose does it serve? Other than to create more government jobs and add expenses to the budget for no real purpose... We have no issue with the change proposed in Art. 1. |

Random fact: When you join the game, you will find yourself with only zero seats. That's because your party's representatives haven't been elected yet. You need to establish your party's position on issues by proposing several bills that your party wants passed and sending them to vote. This raises your visibility and if you do it enough, you will win seats at the next election. |
