Details

Status[?]: passed

Description[?]:
| This bill will change the government's policy on adoption, Inheritance, and marriage. The general point of this bill is to loosen regulation in these areas as we feel it should be the individual's choices in these areas. For example, we propose reducing adoption checkups to simple screenings for previous child abuse, stopping government involvement in marriage completely, allowing anyone who passes screenings to adopt children, and allowing much more freedom from regulation in Inheritance. |
