Details
Submitted by[?]: Telamonese Communist 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.

Description[?]:
| Our officials are too hard on people who want to visit our country, which discourages tourism and other benefits our country should be enjoying. On the other hand, we are a little bit too free with handing out passports to citizens who want to travel abroad. We don't really want to be exporting crime and terrorism around the world, do we? Albert Brocklehurst (General Secretary of the Telamonese Communist Party) |
