Bill: Parlimentary Expansion Act
Details

Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill asks for an amendement to the Constitution. It will require two-thirds of the legislature to vote in favor. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: February 2082
Description[?]:
| I propose to expand the size of parliament to 600 representatives. This is a large number, to ensure representation and proportionality. It is also a round number so that a majority (300+) and 2/3 vote (400+) are obvious and thus life is easier for those of us who suck at math. |
