Details

Voting deadline: July 4374
Description[?]:
| The Government of the Commonwealth affords an over-generous funding of Health services to citizens in the nation. Policies such as funding abortions and paying for contraceptives amount to one group of people forcing the entire nation, even those who morally disagree with funding their non-essential, unnecessary medical needs. This one-sided approach of forcing those morally against it to fund these services should be brought to an end, this bill will do just that. Prime Minister Threadgood |
