Bill: Ambitious Education Reform Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Lodamese Democratic Progressive Party
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: December 4726
Description[?]:
| With the restoration of adequate funding towards education, the Green Progressive Party would like to pursue legislation to restore the education system in Lodamun. The literacy rate of Lodamun has fallen to unacceptably low levels over the past century as a result of negligible funding toward education and laws that allowed Dauxite-controlled local governments to dismantle education systems throughout the nation. This is something the regime has taken pride in and we cannot allow such to continue. |
