Description[?]:
| Mr Speaker, While I, as many other Rutanian's, am an atheist I view the freedom to express your religion as a fundamental human right. To disallow public officials from wearing religious symbols or clothing is discrimination against those of us who are religious, and this must be changed. Wearing religious symbols or clothing has no bearing on ones ability to perform their job, and as such it should not be restricted. Scott Pearson, Chairman of the Worker's Union |
