Bill: Secularity Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Equality Party
Status[?]: defeated
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: July 2273
Description[?]:
| As a secular state, the Socialist Republic of Al'Badara should not treat religious companies any different from others. The way it is, every cause might call itself a religion and pay no taxes. This should change, we are squandering the money we need to make Al'Badara a better place. Of course, it is perfectly agreed that charitable work should not be taxed, and this bill will keep it that way. |
