| Message | Rather than the current racist immigration laws, this bill grants entry to those who have something to contribute to the economic development of this nation. This bill, if passed, allows us to take the best professionals from across the world and build a stronger, more vibrant economy with them. I urge everyone to vote for this bill. Vote for a stronger Luthor for your children and your children's children. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, We remind the DLP to please use the appropriate terms "Mr Speaker" and "I yield". While we understand the DLP's arguments, we are concerned about a sudden influx of foreigners into Luthori. it is of vital importance that ethnic Luthorians remain an overwhelming majority in Luthori. Indeed ethnic Luthorians are superior to all other people, indeed many of Terra's inhabitants once hailed from Luthori (people from Mordusia, Deltaria, etc). I yield. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, We would tend to agree that there is a need to control immigration. However, we disagree that immigration should be conditional on ethnicity. We feel that it is more appropriate to use qualification as a condition for entry to this nation. I yield |

| Message | Mr Speaker, While the DLP's argument is valid, it does not address our concerns about the danger to the Luthorian ethnic majority. I yield. |
| Date | 01:08:05, June 26, 2011 CET | From | Democratic Labour Party | To | Debating the Immigration Act |
| Message | Mr Speaker, We propose that a cam be maintained on immigration and immigrants be admitted on a basis of filling skills shortages in our economy. Furthermore, we propose that the government should reserve the right to halt immigration if the majority Luthorian population is at risk. |
| Date | 10:42:12, June 27, 2011 CET | From | Constitutionalist Imperial League (IA) | To | Debating the Immigration Act |
| Message | Mr Speaker, That would be an acceptable compromise. If the DLP amends the bill to allow the Imperial Office of Domestic Security (ODS) both to place a cap on immigration and to halt any and all immigration if it perceives the overwhelming Luthorian ethnic majority is threatened, we can support this bill. I yield. |
| Date | 11:31:20, June 27, 2011 CET | From | Democratic Labour Party | To | Debating the Immigration Act |
| Message | Mr Speaker, We have agreed to amend the bill to the above effect. I yield. |
