| Message | Madame Speaker, While I don’t like the idea of mandatory conscription I do understand that it is important during times of war. This bill will have the support of the Moderate Caucus. I encourage the rest of the UDP to vote their conscience on this bill. Rep. Joe Murray, Sr. House Minority Leader |

| Message | Madam Speaker, We are concerned as to how this legislation would be perceived by other nations, particularly our neighbours. It would give the impression we are preparing war, which we should not be - and which we are not. All in all, the effect of this bill would be to create a lot of expensive and wasteful bureaucracy, whilst also potentially undermining our relations with other countries. Dashaud Edwards Chairman of the Hosian Democrat Caucus/Republican Party |
