Bill: Limiting the National Government

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: January 3762
Description[?]:
| Our party believes in separating the powers of local and national government. This might be a foreign belief to you guys, but frankly the local officials have several advantages that makes them better in some issues: 1. They are just as educated and intelligent as national officials. 2. Their personal relationships with the people they serve helps them create the correct choices. 3. They have invested interests to properly serve their home town or region correctly. 4. Their home is in that region, and they know what the problems are there. |
