MessageMr/Madam Chairman,

No one seeking to serve and protect the nation of Solentia should be denied the right to do so because of their sexuality. It is not the business or the privilege of the Government to favor heterosexuals to homosexuals in any other area, why should the Military be any different? For that reason I introduce the FETH Act of 3834 to tear down the walls of discrimination that many of our citizens face.

MessageIt's depressing that the authoritarian parties denied something as moderate as this. It shows how they feel about gays and how they feel about Kaiser Chann's son. Despicable.

MessageMr/Madam Speaker,

It is pathetic to see these right wing parties blocking this legislation, despite the clear public support for it. Unionists, if you truly represent the people of this nation, you will change your vote and pass this key legislation for LGBT rights.
