Description[?]:
| Proposing a Cabinet that represents EVERYBODY in the Commonwealth of Rutania because our nation is very DIVIDED and politically DIVERSE. Thus, democracy is enhanced when EVERYBODY has a seat at the table. (1) The Prime Minister should be elected by a simple majority in which the Delvar Unionist Party has the MOST seats in the Cabinet. (2) SInce the Rutanian Democratic Party was elected the PRESIDENT, they should automatically be entitled to the MOST seats in the Cabinet at ***4***. (3) As requested by the President of the Rutanian Democratic Party, the UNSC has a seat at the table. They should only get 1 seat because they have the FEWEST seats in Parliament but they are, nonetheless, represented in our Government. (4) As requested by the Socially Conservative Party, they have ***3*** seats in the cabinet and the CWFP has ONLY 2. This bill must be passed to ensure a working government for the people of Rutania. ---Nicole A. Legrottaglie Minister of Justice, Retiring |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, I'm not going to serve in a cabinet where my party has more cabinet seats than the party with the highest parliamentary seats. How many times do we have to explain this. This is a cabinet ran by the CWF, with seats given to the parties that would most likely vote with them. |

| Message | Mr speaker The UNSC would like to point out that that is what everyone does, and that that is how politics typically works. |

| Message | To the SCP: We understand that you don't wish to have more seats than the party with the highest parliamentary seats, but that party (Delvar Unionists) VOTED for this cabinet coalition. So, if THEY are ok with it, and they are the Prime Minister, what is wrong with it??? --The CWFP |
