Bill: Power for the People Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Unión Demócrata Republicana Confederal
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill asks for an amendement to the Constitution. It will require two-thirds of the legislature to vote in favor. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: May 4400
Description[?]:
| This bill proposes to change our form of government from a monarchy to a republic where the people are free to choose who they want to rule them. A republic is an old form of government that dates back to the Roman civilization. It is time to stop being governed by kings or queens that believe been selected by God to rule the people. In the New Republic, we will stand for the power of the people, where people will be allowed to vote for a leader. It is time that “we the people” have the right to govern ourselves. |
