Bill: Reformation of the Government of the Commonwealth Act of 2958
Details
Submitted by[?]: Bismarckian National Resistance (BNR)
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill asks for an amendement to the Constitution. It will require two-thirds of the legislature to vote in favor. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: July 2959
Description[?]:
| In its current form, the Government of the Commonwealth of Yishelem and Beiteynu has the trappings of a theocratic, one-party state under the Christian Imperial Party. We must work to correct this, to restore the Commonwealth to its post-war state of democratic government under the constitutional monarchy of Luthori. OOC: The HoS and HoG being two separate officials doesn't violate the Treaty of Poesy because the treaty explicitly allows the de facto HoS to be a democratically-elected representative of King George of Luthori (and the HoG is always democratically-elected). |
