| Date | 20:03:49, July 06, 2019 CET | From | Die Mitte | To | Debating the DKP-01 "Regierungsverantwortungsgesetz (Government Responsibilities Act) |
| Message | Solidarität will oppose this overly-punitive piece of legislation, and we urge all of our colleagues to stand up against this usurpation of worker's rights. Articles 1, 2, 6, and 7 are all major assaults on workers. As a party of, by, and for the Working Classes, we cannot stand by idly as the DKP seeks to undo our nation's pro-worker protections. Article 3 goes too far, as does Article 8. We would rather see foreign investors unable to buy a majority share in our firms, and that energy generation is mostly public, with backup private sector energy allowed (in fact, DKP endorsed our position on energy in an ongoing vote on infrastructure). Articles 4 and 5 seek to enact a harsh, über-conservative vision of what the state should regulation - going into the bedroom, so to speak. Therefore, Solidarität stands firmly opposed to this bill and will fight until none of its policies are in force. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker The DKP does as it has always promises. It will make sure that Dorvish ideals, traditions and culture will not be destroyed. That is why we propose the things we propose. In regards to worker right we believe our demands are more then reasonable, enacting legislation that protects the vitals like healthcare and education from total shutdown and Article 8 only gives the companies themselves the option to make use of Democratic Workers Councils instead of using taxpayer money to encourage this practice. These are sensible proposals. And for you to mark them as radical shows the reason the dorvish people chose us as their alternative. |
| Date | 19:22:06, July 07, 2019 CET | From | Föderalistische Partei | To | Debating the DKP-01 "Regierungsverantwortungsgesetz (Government Responsibilities Act) |
| Message | While the FP supports articles 2,4 and 7, we are rather strongly opposed to article 6 and do not really support any of the other provisions of this bill. Thus, we shall vote against it. However should the DKP make a more moderate bill, then the FP (and some of the other parties, we are sure) will gladly vote in favor of it. |
