Bill: The Moderate Secularization Bill
Details
Submitted by[?]: Front Populaire
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.

Description[?]:
| Although we support the PLP's general intention of secularization, some of their proposals are too extreme for our moderate party. Vote for this bill for a freer Alduria, and a more complete seperation of church and state. |
