Bill: Freedom to walk the streets
Details
Submitted by[?]: Social-Progressive Democrat Party
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: December 2598
Description[?]:
| Our current laws allow the local governments to estabilish curfews. We feel this is a backwards policy, and our citizens should be allowed to walk the streets freely. We understand that under a extreme circumstances, like an invasion of our sovereign soil, such curfews could be imposed, but even in those cases only the Federal authorities should be empowered to make such a decision, never the local authorities. |

Current: The national government may impose curfews, but only if a state of emergency has been declared.
Proposed: The national government may impose curfews, but only if a state of emergency has been declared.

| Message | The Freedom Party strongly opposes curfews of any kind. But the safety of our citizens is our first concern, so we can agree that in a "state of emergency" a curfew may be accepted. Hoping that it will never be necessary we will vote for it. Martinez - FP / SG |
