| Message | Dear Anne Landers, Why two-thirds to join a treaty but only half to withdraw? What was the point of treaties, then? Signed, Confused |

| Message | The PCL will reuse to serve in any Cabinet with the FR should this pass. The major sticking point is the Gay Rights Treaty. |

| Message | We may have to join the PCL in this stance: if any of these treaties are repealed, then we may decline to serve in cabinet as well. (ooc: no matter how conservative i play this party, i am not going to vote against gay rights or take part in even pretend homophobia.) |

| Message | Um, this bill was supposed to require half the legislature to vote in favor, but it passed with a simple majority. |
