Bill: Crime Rate Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Kanjoran Socialist Party
Status[?]: defeated
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: September 2153
Description[?]:
I have a good reason now to propose these things. Look at the crime rate in the regions of Zanyal, Tondola, and Vagderra. They have almost a maximum crime rate. We cannot continue to allow this to happen. I wish to keep these proposals until the crime rate drops, and then we can vote them out if necessary. I know alot of you don't like the prospect of police having so much power, but in the face of so much civil disturbance, I believe the situation calls for it. |
