Date | 19:36:55, October 25, 2017 CET | From | Katsuran Party | To | Debating the Bill for Business |
Message | "We disagree with all articles. We need a unified nation that provides a balance between freedom and security for the common person. Most of these articles will create inconsistency among different regions within the nation, and one poorly run local government could hurt the whole nation. Article 2 provides too little security to industries which provide vital services. While we are not opposed to Article 3, we would prefer that it be less severe." Elena Harrison Chairwoman of the Katsuran Party |
