Bill: Women's Rights Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: United Yeudish Leftist Party
Status[?]: defeated
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: September 4126
Description[?]:
| Whereas many Laws of the Land in the Yeudish Republic of Beiteynu provide for economic and social discrimination against women. Whereas the values of Yeudish people around the world and Beiteynuans do not support these laws. Whereas many of the laws lead to lost economic production and difficulties for people on a case by case basis. Whereas a democratic state should not have these barriers. Whereas many of these laws are inconsistent with other laws, such as the fact that women cannot work, but can serve in non-combat positions in the military. Therefore, let if be resolved that the attached groupings of proposals by the United Yeudish Leftist Party be considered for approval by the Knesset. |
