| Message | We are against. The PRP stands shoulder to shoulder with its NHU brethren in countering that this bill would make it impossible for positions and jobs such as Trasportation and Power workers to strike for better wages or better healthcare, which means they would just have to bend over and take it...that is not right for the working class. |

| Message | We will support this first Bill of The right is Right Party. We will also take this chance to welcome them to Hutori. While there is a fair chance you will split our votes and take seats from us, it is still welcome to have one more party who are not a billion miles left of Karl Marx as all the other parties in this nations are. |
