Bill: Anti-public Money to Political Parties Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Atlas Conservative 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: March 3608
Description[?]:
| This bill, if passed, would prevent political parties from recieving public money and require them to get money by private donations alone. Recognizing that political parties have servived as such for many years in other nations. As such it is the belief of the ACP that the providing of Public funds to Political parties (which are privately owned organizations anyways) is a waste of tax-payer money, and that this money could be used better elsewhere. Therefor we urge the People's Assembly to pass this bill. |
