[b][u]July 1st[/u][/b]
The [b]Act to Amend the Cabinet[/b] is passed, thus confirming the cabinet positions for the Bureau of Justice, Bureau of Defense and the dissolution of the Bureau of Lawful Protection into the confines of the Bureau of Justice. Absolutely [u]nothing[/u] is known of appointed ministers Obiang M. Nguema and Louis Ewanè. There are minimal expectations here, but an apprehensive public seems uncertain with the recent Gaza Scandal still very fresh in their minds.

[b][u]July 2nd[/u][/b]

The [b]Income Tax Reduction Bill[/b] fails after a split [b][color=crimson]Samgola Dawn[/color][/b] party, in a split votes, takes the no's to 123. The [b]Freedom of Choice Act[/b] similarly fails after it is voted down. 

[b][u]July 7th[/u][/b]

[hider=PROPOSALS][b][u]Election Fairness Act[/u][/b]
[u]Preamble:[/u] This act will make the National Assembly’s members be more evenly divided between the regions. So that focus doesn’t stay to the cities and distributed across the country. It further changes the way in which the President is decided, using just a simple majority in a single round election rather than a dual system.

[u]Article 1.[/u] The state would adopt a system in which equal representation, regardless of region population is implemented to decide how many seats are given.[Political]

[u]Article 2.[/u] The election for the Presidency will no longer be held in a two round draft, instead whichever president receives the most votes shall become the President.[/hider]

1. [b]Unemployment[/b]: At its simplest this is a count of the percentage of your population who aren't in gainful employment. Adjusted to omit those citizens who are not actively seeking work for one reason or another.
* [b]Current[/b]: 11.60%
* [b]Effecting[/b]: [b][color=red]Number of Poor, Trade Unionist Approval, Number of Commuters, GDP[/color][/b]

2. [b]Homelessness[/b]: Homelessness is a situation where a significant number of a nation's citizens can no longer afford a house and are forced to live on the streets, upsetting the poor, the liberals, and the middle class. Homeless is caused by high rates of Poverty and Unemployment.
