Bill: Minimum Income Reform (Restoration) Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Unio por Populara Suvereneco
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: August 3962
Description[?]:
| This proposal seeks to revoke the Minimum Income Reform Act of 3957. There were many excesses of the NSF, but few garnered support from the larger parties. Unfortunately, one action that did receive support was the removal of the guaranteed citizen's income. By removing the citizen's income, we risk our nation sliding into widespread poverty. A minimum income is not a Government crutch. It is a small amount, that allows for all citizens to strive and feel as though they can experiment in their personal business endeavours or looking for new employment without risking poverty and ruin. We commend this bill to the chamber and seek support of the seated parties in passing it. |

Proposal[?] to change Guarantee of minimum income.

Proposed: All adults not supported by another person shall be guaranteed a very basic subsistence income by the government. However, the provision of this is not to exceed a certian period of time.
