| Message | "This bill is very vague, it does not specify which missionaries will be banned from the nation, it does not specify which religions or races will be allowed into the army, it does not specify the intentions for which laws would be changed following the passage of article 1. Until these proposals are clairified we must vote no." -- Lady Kosawak Zettel |
