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.

Message | For. I don't remember this new, deregulated position that we have in place now. It must have been passed while I couldn't get online. |

Message | Yeah it did LPP, http://80.237.164.51/particracy/main/viewbill.php?billid=48485 Only RWE voted for, and the rest against or abstain. It is also the reason why we are running with such a high deficit in the national budget currently. That is one reason why we need to cut expenses. But no, the budget proposal did not pass.. sigh. Keep in mind that raising taxes is no option, since you can't push those through currently. Back to fireworks, I liked the older value better. With the current value people, youth and adult, can get injured because they are not limited in the type of fireworks. So the proposed value I see as a step back to where it should be. |

Message | I think most of us are agreed that the NCG has proposed an excellent new law worthy of passing. |

Message | "RWE on what ground do you base your against?" Freer market? Less restrictions/regulations? The usual reasons. |

Random fact: When you join the game, you will find yourself with only zero seats. That's because your party's representatives haven't been elected yet. You need to establish your party's position on issues by proposing several bills that your party wants passed and sending them to vote. This raises your visibility and if you do it enough, you will win seats at the next election. |
