Details
Submitted by[?]: Chann National Party (CNP)
Status[?]: passed
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: April 3923
Description[?]:
| OOC: This act is also to be construed as an attempt to present to the other parties a model on how to draft bills and to push back against "lumping" or combining two unreasonably unrelated laws in order to force a party to vote against its principles. While we believe that all nations should not impose tariffs upon each other, there are some nations that will take advantage and impose tariffs. The reciprocal tariffs is to protect us against those countries who do not want free trade. |
