Bill: Congressional Quorum Act (Sep 4408) - Liberty
Details
Submitted by[?]: Liberty Party
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This bill is a resolution. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: June 4410
Description[?]:
| Mr Speaker, Liberty propose the establishment of a Congressional Quorum as part of Congressional standing orders. This is designed to protect the people of Beluzia against unrepresentative decision making by an under represented Congress in the event a party or parties can no longer take their seats. (ooc: in the event of removal, reset or resignation of a player). If no quorum can be found then, by law, elections must be held immediately to reestablish a quorum. Liberty believe this quorum should be set at 40% of all seats available in Congress. |
