| Message | I apologize Mr. Speaker, The Articles above, for some odd reason, changed and thus my explanation on my above debate needs clarification. The Democratic Party agrees with the change in the Government's policy regarding Democratic Workers' Councils and Eminent Domain, however can not support the Government's changes to making only open shops legal in this great Republic. The Democratic Party, while against communism, is against any measure that would negatively effect worker's rights in this Republic. While the Democratic Party is not against profit making companies and individuals, they should never do it on the backs of our hard working constituents. Jordan Eldridge, MP, Democratic Party Leader |
