| Message | Mr. Speaker, This is the first step toward a socialist Rutania. The UPR and the Right, will look forward to repealing this bill and others of its nature. We further question the ideological leanings of the RFP and RPC, who claim to be conservatives, yet vote for a socialist bill. Gordon Millner UPR Congressional Leader |
