| Message | AYDL BINADONIIM Party Leader of the SKC "This omnibus bill is a poor attempt at ramming through articles of many origins and with many areas of influence. At once, this act is secularist, small-government, restrictive, militarist and many other ideologies. I personally believe in some, but not all. Our party stands for some, but not all. The government should, in the future, split their proposals into multiple bills - as to provide options for Senators to support certain laws and not have to compromise on their beliefs. "That said, we will support this bill. The SKC publicly disagrees with Articles 11 and 14, but see more benefit than harm from this legislation." |
