| Message | I want to open up a debate on a tricky subject - whether women should be allowed to fight on the front line alongside male soldiers. As a woman, I am all for equality in the workplace but it is apparent during the civil war that female casualties were high and this is difficult for me to accept as a social conservative. Can I ask that Congress votes on this and debate whether women would better serve in units behind the frontline. Thank you President Bathsheba Grey |

| Message | I think that everyone hold have a chance to work in the job they want so as long as the women can perform as well as the men then you they should be able to fight frontline |

| Message | That is a fair point. As I said I am torn on the matter but given the lack of appetite to change this will probably vote no. |

| Random fact: In order for a Cabinet bill to pass, more than half of the legislature must vote for it and all of the parties included in the proposed Cabinet must support it. If your nation has a Head of State who is also the Head of Government, then the party controlling this character must also vote for the bill, since the Head of Government is also a member of the Cabinet. If any of these requirements are not met, the bill will not pass. |
