Bill: Federal Council Reassessment Act of 3024
Details
Submitted by[?]: Libertarian Socialist Party of Darnussia
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: May 3025
Description[?]:
This bill, if passed will change the Federal Council seat number to 385. The reasona are as such: 1. As of the 3024 Election, Darnussia has 8 political parties with seats. This means opinions in Darnussia are much more diversified than they used to be and election races are winning more and more minority governments. The increase in seats will allow for more districts and therefore more of a much more diverse nation's opinions to be expressed 2. 385 will mean that there will be roughly one representative for every 2 million Darnussians 3. Current council has been small for so long, the Leadership of so many in the hands of so few is rather undemocratic. |

Message | OOC: 299 was the traditional seat number. Well, it used to be 300 but after we got stalemate 150/150 and basicallt no bills were passed by either coalitions, it was changed to 299. But things have changed since then. |

Random fact: Cabinet ministers who disagree seriously with the head of government would usually be expected to resign. Parties within the cabinet may attempt to manoeuvre to replace the head of government though, for example by proposing a new cabinet bill or voting for an early election. |
Random quote: "To the youth of America, I say, beware of being trivialized by the commercial culture that tempts you daily. I hear you saying often that you're not turned on by politics. The lessons of history are clear and portentous. If you do not turn onto politics, politics will turn on you." - Ralph Nader |
