Details
Submitted by[?]: Spiritualists' National Union
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill proposes to change income taxes. It requires more than half of the legislature to vote yes. This bill will pass as soon as the required yes votes are in, or will be defeated if unsufficient votes are reached on the deadline.

Description[?]:
| Our tax proposal will reduce taxes for the poor and middle-earners, whilst requiring the rich to pay a reasonable amount extra. This is a fair deal. |

| Random fact: Parties have the ability to endorse another party's candidate for the Head of State election (if there is one). This adds a strategic element to the elections. |
