Bill: Grumsworth's Public Works Initiative
Details
Submitted by[?]: Mordusia First!
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: July 4250
Description[?]:
| By contracting with private companies, the construction of public works will become more efficient and our nation's infrastructure will improve. This bill will boost the economy with more people being employed to construct these buildings out of materials from Mordusian companies, and businesses will be housed in these new buildings and more people will be employed by these people therefore allowing people to have jobs and put food on the table, pay the rent and still have money for entertainment and other things. Under the Grumsworth Leadership, the working class will grow because those currently unemployed will get jobs. We expect at least 250,000 more jobs to be created under this bill, how many jobs will be created when I'm President? Horace Grumsworth President of the Tea Party |

| Random fact: Any RP law granting extraordinary "emergency powers" or dictator-like powers to a government must be passed by at least a 2/3rds majority, but (like all RP laws) may always be overturned by a simple majority vote of the legislature. |
