Bill: Including nationalism proposal
Details
Submitted by[?]: Communist Party
Status[?]: passed
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: January 3061
Description[?]:
| While we are communists and thus inherently internationalistic, we realize the inevitable truth that nationalism is a factor – a strong one – and that our population loves their nations. As we do, obviously, since we strive to better it. But nationalism does not necessarily have to be excluding; nationalism isn't the same as racialism, it isn't the same as ethnic or cultural homogenity. It is love for the nation and the wish to see the nation grow to new heights. Therefor we in CPDN wants to loosen the laws concerning immigration, to cleanse our legislation from the vile disease that is racialism. We want to see a glorious Deltaria Nova, one that accepts the needing and the willing under her wing. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, On behalf of the Democratic Socialist Party I would like to firstly express our happiness that we now have multiple parties, both of which are left-wing. I sincerely hope the people form more left-wing parties in order to create the ultimate worker's state. Regarding these proposals, some are not liberal enough, but the proposals are improvements and thus we shall support this bill. |

| Message | We would like to introduce more liberal laws, of course, but seeing how backwards the legislature are we feared the potential repercussions if we didn't tread carefully – at least initally. |
