Bill: Adoption Privatization Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Populist 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: June 2603
Description[?]:
It goes without question that there should be some type of regulation concerning adoption; however, this is not to say that the government is best-suited to create and enforce these regulations. The Populist Party moves to put the regulating power into the hands of recognized, private institutions. |
