Bill: Anarch Anakrousite Shatter Reform Bill - Shattered Law for Shattered Lands (iii)
Details
Submitted by[?]: Commonwealth Workers Army
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: February 2140
Description[?]:
This is another largely Sacred Order Bill, designed to strengthen the position of the Sacred Order within Likatonia - to give the people a unifying creed, a spirit of comradeship. The compulsary 'State Religion' suggested in the Legislation is the "Sacred Order of the Tears of Termani", the dominant gathering in the religious wing of the Sacred Order faction. There is also some Red Dawn border control legislation, in cooperation with the Sacred Order, to prevent the influx of heretical foreign missionaries - both declared and undeclared. Finally, there are some Hardline Faction suggestions, to ensure a safer, happier Likatonia. "May the Tears of Termani wash away your sins, Unclean Ones". |
