| Message | The Telamonian finance minister works hard to keep our budget balanced and by precedent these types of proposals should be left to that post. Therefore our vote does not reflect our opinion of the bill, but rather our disapproval of violating the precedent. Drake Dalton Chairman Democratic Capitalist Delegation |
