Bill: Schooling act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Freedom 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: July 3514
Description[?]:
| It has been said before, and it sadly has to be said again - the very existence of public schools is what causes segregation in the education system. How about scrapping them and instead introducing universal subsidization of private institutions in their stead - creating freedom of choice and quality-improving competition in the process. |
