This shall be introduced later but...

The People's Government Bill

1. Citizens will be allowed to introduce bills in the SE legislature, even if they are from other areas, essentially allowing anyone who wants to introduce a bill can introduce one.
2. The Maximum amount of bills being debated or voted on shall be increased to 4.
3. Tax rates, current states of the economy, etc shall be released every five months.
4. Southern Government spending shall be publicly view-able.
So, under Section 2, a citizen of another Region (say, the Mideast) would be able to introduce legislation in the Southern Legislature? If so, I support this amendment! Wink

Sounds more like a constitutional amendment.

Although, on #4, we should do our budget. We normally try to do that each year anyway, so #s 3 and 4 are redundant.

Maybe, and oh alright, I'll remove them when it's introduced!

Sounds great Haslam! Quick question, would those not sitting in the legislature be able to amend bills or propose amended bills also?

By the way, I will oppose this measure. Why on earth would you give most of the same powers to non-legislators as you would to legislators? The legislative elections are supposed to have meaning--it's not a ceremonial title.

Also, non-citizens? I think that's crazy. In real life, I, as a citizen of Georgia, should not be able to go into Tennessee and vote on their referendums and elections and whatnot--much less propose legislation for their state legislature. (I get that it's a different idea, but hopefully you all understand my point.)

Not that this is a place for debate--just giving my two cents considering that other's gave theirs.

He didn't include voting, he just included amending and drafting bills both of which I agree with. I support a more globalized style of legislating where everyone is allowed to give their two cents.

Mr. Governor, this is a thing where non-legislators, from the South, etc can introduce bills they see fit, I mean think about it this is a people's government after all! So why can't we take a few ideas from our neighbors and get to know the people's concerns?

II. Any non-southern citizen may introduce a bill, so long as their region has an equivalent right for Southern citizens. This shall be held after at least two other regions have passed an equivalent, as determined by the presiding officer of the legislature.

Haslam can introduce that and we can debate on it, but you didn't make the corrections I suggested.

It gives no indication to where it is (it's Article III) and sections are given numbers, not Roman numerals (articles are given Roman numerals).

Passing the new Constitution will be one of the most important events in Atlasian history. I think the people of the South should have a say in voting on it. (And no, this will not block the ConCon from passage. If it was going to, I wouldn't be trying to pass this, now would I?)
