Bill: Legislature Reduction (2)
Details
Submitted by[?]: Endralon Graenix Party
Status[?]: defeated
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: July 2551
Description[?]:
| I propose to reduce the legislature size by 250 seats. There is no apparent good reason to have the legislature maxed out. Just because it shows someone has more seats does not mean they would be less powerful at 500 seats. It is all based on proportions. If you had 10% of 750, you would have 75 seats. 10% of 500 is 50. This is just too large of a legislature in my opinion, I believe we are do for a change. |
Proposals

| Message | Umm, if you can see I posted the message before anyone even responded. I was referring to the point that parties don't debate bills. What you are talking about would be really stupid for anyone to say. |
