Bill: Good Relations Act of 2602
Details
Submitted by[?]: Democratic Capitalist Delegation
Status[?]: defeated
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: June 2603
Description[?]:
| We feel that authorizing use of nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons at the discretion of our generals is a dangerous and irresponsible policy. The only situation which truly mandates a death sentence for millions of civilians and non-combatants is in retaliation to an attack which has inflicted such casualties in Telamon. Furthermore, the withdrawal of aid from countries in need is an action which has curbed years of hard work to put Telamon in good standing on the world stage. We propose an immediate change to these policies to reaffirm our intentions of good relations with Terran nations. |
