Description[?]:
| We are ashamed to have learned that this great country still allows child labor, so we petition every party leader, whatever your differences, to vote for stopping child labor.

Finally we must limit commercialism as much as possible to protect our own national, and non-corporate interests. |

| Message | While we fully support this measure, it's unlikely to pass, because the DPA is opposed to them, and they control enough votes to shut them down. |

| Message | This bill. I disliike every bit pof this bill. Article 1:Freedom of Advertising is restricted and it is against liberties of Alorians Atricle 2: IMO only the Head of State should, its his government he should propose it. Article 3: Alorians are adults by 18, so no teenagers can work? And you also want there tests to be out on the field. Very smart logic there |

| Random fact: In order for a Cabinet bill to pass, more than half of the legislature must vote for it and all of the parties included in the proposed Cabinet must support it. If your nation has a Head of State who is also the Head of Government, then the party controlling this character must also vote for the bill, since the Head of Government is also a member of the Cabinet. If any of these requirements are not met, the bill will not pass. |
