| Message | This bill actually reduces proportionality. Currently, we have the fair system where each state gets the proportion of seats equivalent to its population size. It is wholly unfair for a state with significantly more people to have the same amount of representatives to a state that is smaller. Ida Kayser Co-Leader of the ADA |

| Random fact: It is the collective responsibility of the players in a nation to ensure all currently binding RP laws are clearly outlined in an OOC reference bill in the "Bills under debate" section of the nation page. Confusion should not be created by displaying only some of the current RP laws or displaying RP laws which are no longer current. |
