NE2: Stand with the Kurds Act (Passed)

[Clyde1998]

I support this, I think we need to support the Kurds in their struggle against IS.

On a somewhat related note, I feel action needs to be done to prevent any of the Muslim community in the North East region (and Atlasia as a whole) from being influenced by IS - to prevent a major incident in the country. Maybe an increased police presence on the streets could help counter this and a ban to any IS videos on TV and online?

[Clyde1998]

I don't want to deal with IS or domestic terror in this bill, purely because it's a different subject and I feel the bill I proposed already came close to breaking the idea that we leave foreign policy to the Senate. Clyde, I encourage you to propose something in the legislation thread then we can discuss it further

I'll wait for the currently proposed bills to be voted on before proposing something else. Also, I can completely understand separating the two issues.

[Clyde1998]

I propose that we choose 21st March - as it's 'Newroz'.

[Clyde1998]

I think the amendment is fine - ie Points 1 & 2.

[Clyde1998]

Aye.

Vetoed. Companies should have a freedom to pay their interns above the minimum wage.

I think you're referring to this bill.
