Bill: Chemical/Biological Weapons Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Beluzian Defense and Federalist Party
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.
Voting deadline: July 2191
Description[?]:
| The Defense Party believes that it is a necessity to possess weapons of Mass destruction in order to protect Beluzia. A majority of our citizens do not support Nuclear weapons, however, we feel similar goals could be accomplished by using chemical and biological weapons. These weapons would be in the retaliatory strike role, and exist for the sole purpose of deterrence against an attack. |
