Bill: Freedom Of The People Act I
Details
Submitted by[?]: Socialist Democrats of Egelion
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: August 2124
Description[?]:
| We can't let people be determined citizens based on race, religion or gender. The people of Egelion have never been a biased, racist, or sexist people. We must allow immigrants to come live in Egelion and experience all the same things that our citizens can. Humans cannot determine where they are born, and we should provide a place for people to live. Homosexuality should be as allowed in the military as heterosexuality. Once again, we cannot be biased. Homosexuals cannot help what they feel, and if they are in love with someone they should be allowed to express it. There should be no mandatory national service. People should not be forced to do what they want to do; the government should not have this much control over people. |
