| Message | We don't like progressive policies such as increasing abortion funding and regressive policies such as restricting organ donations to be paperclipped in the same Bill. Tobacco is very harmful and should be extremelly controlled and restricted, but a ban will increase and empower smuggling and drug trafficking. Overall, we have to abstain. PS: At the time of this proposal, this Congress was voting the Epidemy Control Act (http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill.php?billid=504357) for the compulsority of vaccination - we recommend the LPP to check it out. |
