| Message | Feel free to point out writing errors. And to debate the actual content of the bill as well. |
| Date | not recorded | From | Progressive Evolution Party | To | Debating the The Right To Assemble Bill |
| Message | We find the text of the bill contradictory given the present restrictions that, "The police may disperse a group if they believe it poses a potential risk to public safety." I find this a most disturbing contradiction, and an unfortuante one as well should this bill make it to the floor for voting. The PEP would be forced to abstain. |
