Bill: Changing The National Sport 4258
Details
Submitted by[?]: Liberal, Socialist Party of Baltusia
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: August 4259
Description[?]:
| Members of congress, we propose that the national sport is changed to chess. As chess is associated with intelligence and has been shown to make children better at problem solving, we believe that this change will allow our children to become the next generation of thinkers. This will also make the next generation able to think tactically and allow them to win in war. |
