Bill: Unknown Bill
Details
Submitted by[?]: Imperial Dolgarian Military Party
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: February 2192
Description[?]:
| Explanation of Each Proposal.. 1) Child Labour should be Illegal because these Children should be required to do one thing: Go to school and earn an education, not working in factories being treated like adults. 2) The age a student is allowed to stop attending school should be changed to 16. Seeing as a person is considered an adult at 16, why should they be forced to attend school for 2 more years? 3) Animals should not be used for testing of any kind. 4) Nuclear Weaponry should never be used but to make a compromise, I propose we only use it when we have been attacked first. 5) Equal rights to all workers. A company should not hire all of a certain race, sex or relgiion, but should hire equally amongst all men and women. 6) Really a bill for the GUDE Party, we believe cleaner air will lead to cleaner minds. |

| Message | I didn't mean to wreak havoc, I was going to propose 6 different bills but I'd figure that'd take too much time. I'll remember this next time. |

| Message | While this bill is interesting, I'll not support it. Of course, as LPP said, there are things too much unrelated, and I prefer to refuse it rather than having passed the thing I like in it. |
