Message | We will not support this legislation. The proposed discrimination against women is by far the most heinous offense set forth by this bill and alone is enough to garner a no vote from the DCD. The proposed revocation of workers rights however is a near equally unacceptable prospect. It is the duty of this Parliament to serve the people of Telamon, and taking steps to allow proletariat enslavement on the part of corporations would be a blatant disregard for that duty.
