Bill: Health and Safety Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Freedom of Religion 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: January 2326
Description[?]:
| "A few proposals to protect the sanctity of human life, and to patch our ruptured borders. It is the opinion of the Underdog Party that these are essential requirements, and that anyone who votes against our proposals is flawed, and possibly evil. Obviously, anyone who votes against protecting our borders is a traitor to the nation. Anyone who votes against abortion is a murderer, and anyone who votes against harvesting organs from those no longer using them is fundamentally selfish. We expect to see all true patriots and god-fearing citiznes supporting these basic essential proposals." --Bad Wolf, elected speaker for the Underdog Party. |

| Random fact: Did you know you can change the official name of your nation? All you need to do is draw up a new name that is in accordance with the Nation Renaming Guide, pass a bill proposing the name change with a two-thirds majority and then post a request to Moderation on the "Renaming Requests" thread. You can change city and region names in this way too. |
