Bill: Change of the Government Names: April 2159
Details

Votes: This bill asks for an amendement to the Constitution. It will require two-thirds of the legislature to vote in favor. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: January 2160
Description[?]:
| I feel the name of our current legislative body reflects on the ideas of the 2 old majority parties. We should see that in 80% of the nations on Terra, they have 2 seperate offices. I feel that Zardugal should follow and allow a better checked governemnt. |

| Message | I have no problem with HoS, but the other names for the most part gave us uniquity which is why I passed them. I despise being bland and in-step with others. |

| Message | Really? I didn't know Jaque Chirac(Pres. of France), Jalal Talabani(President of Iraq), and Moshe Katsav(President of Israel) among many others, had life-time appointments. In actuality, the are ALL ELECTED. Again, study-up on world governments before you try and debate on them. |
