CONSIDERING that a Constitution may be written soon, CONSIDERING that democracy and human rights are non-negotiable, CONSIDERING that no protection of aforementioned rights has been defined, I, u/AltDetom555555b, in my sound mind and body, RESOLVED to propose a bill to the first council of the r/TeenGovernment subreddit, whose goals are to protect democracy and human rights. ADDING that anyone can contribute to the HRB before its passage in the Council by posting a post with the flair “Proposition for Council” and whose title starts with “HRB amendment proposition:”. This formatting is not mandatory, but would ease the process. AMENDMENTS shall be voted separately, at the same time or right after the first draft of the HRB. # HUMAN RIGHTS BILL Article I – Humans are born and remain free and equal in rights. Article II - Power to create, change and repeal the laws shall emit from the people. No violation of the concepts of Democracy and the rule of law shall be tolerated. Article III - None shall make law establishing religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, nor shall the rights of Conscience be infringed, provided that expressing such thoughts does not trouble the public order established by the law. Article IV – Liberty consists of doing anything which does not harm others: thus, the exercise of the natural rights of each human has only those borders which assure other members of the society the fruition of these same rights. Article V – The council has the right to forbid only actions harmful to society. Anything which is not forbidden by the law cannot be impeded, and no one can be constrained to do what it does not order. Article VI – The law is the expression of the general will. All the citizens have the right of contributing personally. It must be the same for all, either that it protects, or that it punishes. All the citizens, being equal in its eyes, are equally admissible to all public dignities, places, and employments, according to their capacity and without distinction other than that of their virtues and of their talents. Article VII – No human can be accused, arrested nor detained but in the cases determined by the law, and according to the forms which it has prescribed. Those who solicit, dispatch, carry out or cause to be carried out arbitrary orders, must be punished; but any citizen called or seized under the terms of the law must obey at once; he renders himself culpable by resistance. Article VIII - The right of the People to be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. Article IX – The law should establish only penalties that are strictly and evidently necessary, and no one can be punished but under a law established and promulgated before the offense and legally applied. Article X – Any human being presumed innocent until he is declared culpable if it is judged indispensable to arrest him, any rigor which would not be necessary for the securing of his person must be severely reprimanded by the law. Article XI - No person shall be subject to more than one trial, or one punishment for the same offense, nor shall be compelled in any criminal case, to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use without just compensation. Article XII – The free communication of thoughts and of opinions is one of the most precious rights of human: any citizen thus may speak, write, print freely, but shall be responsible for such abuses of this freedom as shall be defined by law. Article XIII – In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation, to be confronted with the witnesses against him, to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel for his defence. Article XIV - Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted. Article XV – The society has the right of requesting an account from any public agent of its administration. Article XVI - The enumeration in the HRB or the Constitution of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people. Article XVII – Property being an inviolable and sacred right, no one can be deprived of private usage, if it is not when the public necessity, legally noted, evidently requires it, and under the condition of a just and prior indemnity.

I'd like to propose we adopt the feature of custom flairs. In past small teen run subreddits, custom flairs have shown to be a great way to signal important information about an individual, where they stand on a topic, and perhaps something unique about them. They also frequently work as icebreakers, a simple "your flair is so funny" and boom the ~~society~~ subreddit is already that much closer.

20251130-1 • The Flairs Bill • Imported from Reddit - Status: Passed
CONSIDERING the lack of customisable post and publication flairs, CONSIDERING the multiple recent cases of “misflairing” TAKING IN ACCOUNT u/are-my-next-victim ’s proposition of custom flairs and my will of expanding it, I, u/AltDetom555555b, of sound mind and body, PROPOSE the following bill to the first Council of r/TeenGovernment # FLAIRS BILL Article I - at least one customisable flair must be available for user flairs and publication flairs Article II - custom flairs violating subreddit rules, Reddit terms of service and/or active laws of the subreddit must be removed by the moderation and the responsible can be sanctioned Article III - a new publication flair “Campaigning” must be created and should solely be used for political campaigning posts Article IV - the “Proposition for Council” flair is used for proposing bills, motions and amendments in front of the council. Any post NOT clearly proposing a bill CANNOT use this flair Article V - this bill enters into effect upon passage by parliament. Rights and restrictions created by this act apply to all users of the subreddit, moderators included.
20251202-0 • We Need Some Community Events • Imported from Reddit - Status: Unknown
as more parties form and split the people apart, what we really need right now are some government or community led events. things that fuel our innate competitive nature while still staying on good terms with our neighbors. therefore, i propose we have community game-nights. whether they’re led and hosted by regular civilians or by a member of the council (or perhaps a new position in the government is made for it), they will be a helpful tool in holding our community together even when our politics split us apart. contests could also be pretty important and serve as another way for non-government employees to make choices that affect us. flag, motto, and currency deciding, hell even creating an anthem for us. all of these things allow the creatives in here to shine and be acknowledged and appreciated for their work. a nation without art or culture is a failing nation. tldr: a bill that mandates occasional game nights (by whatever means you choose; this does not mean mandatory participation, just that its a thing) and allowing the people to choose our flag, motto, and other important art.

I say we set up a kind of judicial system to monitor laws, because there doesn’t seem to be a main group of laws that are really being enforced other than obvious ones(no pedos), and if we really want to stimulate government we will need a judicial system. This is why we should have the president nominate people, congress check them, and finally have the people vote to allow them into the Supreme Court, and the people in thr Supreme Court can set Lower courts to monitor less important laws. What do you guys think?
20251209-0 • The Petition Act • Imported from Reddit - Status: Passed
Section 1. Purpose of This Act The purpose of this act is to establish a clear and organized system for how Citizens may bring forward ideas and take part in community decisions. This section introduces the scope and intention before defining the terms and steps used in the process. Section 2. Definitions Citizen: As defined in the constitution Moderator Role Moderators stay neutral and may delete petitions that violate Reddit TOS, are impossible to execute, or are not serious/community-focused. Petition: A proposal created only after a council suggestion has been ignored or declined. Council Suggestion: A formal proposal submitted to the council. Section 3. Scope of Petitions and Laws Petitions: Citizen-led suggestions for community decisions, including overriding ignored or rejected council suggestions after 14 days. Existing Laws and Pinning Rules: Petitions cannot conflict with existing laws and may propose deletion. Deleted laws cannot be recreated by the council for 30 days. Petitions must wait 7 days before pinning if they reach 20% support. These related rules are combined here to keep the structure simple. Section 4. Council Suggestion and Petition Process Any Citizen, Moderator, or President may create a council suggestion. A petition may be created 14 days after a suggestion if the council declines it, does not respond, or marks it “In Progress” but does not complete it within the 14-day extension. Petitions reach Level 1/2 consideration after 7 days, and a Citizen may create a new petition only 21 days after their previous one. These points are grouped to keep the process consistent. Section 5. Petition Rules and Support Petitions must use the official “Petition” flair, be serious, and relate to community governance. Petitions cannot conflict with existing laws. Citizens show support by commenting on the petition thread; only one comment per Citizen counts, and signatures must include the Citizen’s Reddit username (automatically visible). Section 6. Voting Process Voting happens in a 14-day Petition Vote post. Citizens participate by commenting to show support. Votes are counted exactly 14 days after the post is created. Section 7. Petition Power Levels Level 1: 50% Citizen Support → Council Review If 50% of Citizens support the petition, the council must review it and respond with Accept or Reject, including an explanation. No law is created automatically at this level. Level 2: 70% Citizen Support → Automatic Law or Deletion If 70% of Citizens support, the petition becomes law automatically or removes an existing law. The president cannot veto it. Council must enforce it immediately. Section 8. Protection of Citizen Rights No Citizen may be punished for signing or not signing a petition. All Citizens have equal rights within the petition system. No one may pressure or manipulate signatures or votes. Moderators cannot vote, create petitions, or intervene. Section 9. Amendment of This Act This Act may only be changed with 80% Citizen support through a valid petition. Council and president cannot change or remove this act.
20251212-0 • Offsite Media Act • Creates official TeenGovernment discord.
I believe that without proper media and news rules, we will falter in our subs success. This is why the Lion Party is proposing the Media Act. Section 1: The creation of a discord server used by the population of r/teengovernment, primarily for creating and spreading various forms of media better suited for off Reddit, consisting of, but not limited to; books, magazines, television shows, or commercials. This will not only boost drive for creation, but also provide a space for world building, like fictional companies Section 2: A dedicated section within the Discord server operated by news networks based around the subreddit. This will act as a second area for news already on r/Teenews, a ground of discussion, as well as the opportunity for independent journalists to gain popularity. Section 3: Each election, there will be party leaders debate hosted by aforementioned news networks/journalists. The rules of the debate, and rules of participating in the debate itself shall be defined by the host of the debate. This will provide a new, proper way for parties to get their messages out there. Section 4: If this act is passed by the Council, the responsibility for the creation of this discord server will be given to a special committee, members chosen by the current President.
20251213-1 • The Toxicity Act / William 2 • Allows people to be "mean"
This is the second William paper. What does it mean to be toxic? Oxford languages defines the adjective toxic as “harmful or dangerous to health or life when taken into the body; poisonous.” Personally, I’d define toxicity as disdain toward another force. Toxicity, at its core, is free speech! So why can’t you express it? Why can’t you express free speech? Toxicity isn’t hate-it’s disdain! Hate and toxicity are two completely different things. For example, let’s look at John and Henry. John posts on r/SecretFemboys saying; “ALL HAIL THE MAN I CANT MENTION OR ILL GET FLAGGED”. However, Henry posts on the same subreddit talking to a moderator who made fun of his polka-dot spotted skirt. Henry replies; “Shut up”. They both get banned. John deserved the ban, but Henry didn’t. How does this make sense? What I propose: a new article (section 1). The right to Toxicity. People deserve to be mean, not hateful. The Editing of Rule 1 Edited Rule 1: no citizen may spit hate speech, including racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, anti-semitism, nor spew hate toward any group. Article XVIII (18): The right to be toxic. all citizens, as long as not being hateful, and just spewing an opinion, not hate speech, may be as mean or nice as they’d see fit-and be able to be reprimanded by their colleagues, but not moderators. If this citizen does break a rule however, they still break a rule. Article XIX (19): The right to toxicity against citizens of power citizens of power, such as moderators, presidents, council members, or any of the sort as seen fit as the president, may not reprimand a citizen for speaking out against themselves or their colleagues.
20251213-4 • Freedom Of Speechfreedom Of Party Restrictions • Imported from Reddit - Status: Passed
As everyone knows, parties have been getting rather aggressive with their attempts at disbanding others, and this needs to stop, and so I propose a bill to be voted on, these are the main points of this bill, as well as limiting free speech that could be harmful to others. 1: saying threating, racist, sexist, homophobic, and other derogatory terms or direct sayings that can be said are meant to hurt someone’s mental, emotional, or physical wellbeing will be banned, as many may say this could mean many things, the judicial branch could create a separate court for this, deciding on whether or not the intention of it was meant to harm, and if it was deleted after the time it came under review than this will be an admittance of guilt and will be suspended for however long the judges decide. 2: individuals or members of parties cannot make laws specifically trying to deny the right of existence for another party for their own gain or for personal grudges, this includes making bills that are targeted against specific people as well, for this should be deliberated by the judicial and congress, and whatever decision they come to is what’s shall happen of the person or party involved. 3: Bills must be all encompassing, for example: if a bill was passed that prevented extremes, it couldn’t be just far right or left or centrist, it must be all of them. So if a bill is passed or even deliberated upon, it must be understood that it must affect everything that could be labeled under what the bill was trying to affect. 4: if it is apparent that one party has become belligerent towards all others(does not affect single wars between parties), and isn’t seeming to be deleted despite many attempts, then citizens may start making bills to try and stop them. Thanks for reading =p
20251219-0 • An Act To Amend The Laws Of The Judiciary • Imported from Reddit - Status: Unknown
Whereas that all authority of government, whether legislative, judicial or executive comes from the people, and that all proceedings of the Judiciary must be fair; And whereas that heretofore the laws of the Judiciary have been mostly, but not perfectly defined in agreement with this principle, the laws of the Judiciary shall hereby be amended thus: 1. That the form of trial defined as summary judgement shall be abolished. 2. That all proceedings of the Judiciary in any trial shall be screenshotted and posted on the subreddit by the Chief Justice, the head officer of the Judiciary, that office being herein defined; that the citizens may know what is going on. 3. And that if due to that the citizens disapprove of the proceedings of the trial, if at least 75% of the citizens of the subreddit, in a public petition or survey, voice their disapproval, the trial shall be ruled a mistrial and shall be restarted. 4. The Council shall have the power to enforce these amendments to the laws of the Judiciary by appropriate legislation.
20251220-0 • Anticorruption Paper • Imported from Reddit - Status: Passed
Can we see what council members vote for? I don’t mean who they vote for, I mean for like propositions, and whether they approve or veto them. Because right now, someone could promise something for the council, get elected, and then go back on their word and start vetoing or approving proposals of the type that they said they would never do such. But if we could see what they vote for, we could see if someone’s breaking their promises. Not that I suspect any members of the council to be lying, but I hope this decreases future corruption in the council or president positions.
20251221-0 • Anticorruption Paper Ii • Imported from Reddit - Status: Passed
My idea is that no moderator should be able to hold a seat in the council, or be president/vice president. Of course, there will be some exceptions. Due\_Camel is currently our acting president, and he will remain so until the next election. SomWan is running for president, and if he wins, will be allowed to complete his term. He’s temporarily mod, so this wont affect him. So basically, no council member/president is allowed to apply in the mod vote, and vice versa, except the exceptions I’ve already listed. This is so that the War on Will doesn’t happen again, which started because DueJob was “bored” and added Arc to the council gc. I believe that he was bored because he had so much power, being a mod and a council member.

No politician of any sort is allowed to make or accept a political crime, such as threats, blackmail, bribes, etc. If said politician accepts a bribe, the blame is on the politician and the briber. However, if they refuse, the blame is now solely on the briber. If a politician is blackmailed or threatened, the blame shall be on the blackmailer/threatener and the politician will be protected by the mods from the information being released. The same goes for the politician if they ever do these things, such as bribe people into voting them and things like that. NO ONE is above this law, from citizens to council members to mods.

No citizen is allowed to use an alt to vote for themselves, or just vote for themselves regularly, as that would be voter fraud and the sub does not allow people to vote for themselves. They also cannot try to bribe, threaten, or blackmail a citizen into committing voter fraud for them, as that would violate the third anti-corruption paper. Mods also must count the votes correctly and accurately, showing no bias. They also cannot be bribed, threatened, or blackmailed. This will apply to all elections, from lawyer to mod elections. This is to reduce corruption in this election, as I have already heard about voter fraud happening.

20251231-1 • Proposition For Council Party Competition And • Imported from Reddit - Status: Unknown
Key definitions: Party — a political organization consisting of three or more members Registration — a citizen being admitted to a party. Each citizen may be registered to a single party at any given time Census — a list of all members registered in a given party Census period — a weeklong period in between censuses Coalition — an agreement between parties to work together to further their political interests Political Action Group — a group of individuals that may or may not belong to different parties, whose goal is only to oppose an existing party or ideology. Article 1: Any group of three or more citizens have the right to create a party by creating a post stating their party name and founding members. Article 2: Every census period, parties must publish a census of ALL registered members’ usernames. Article 3: No party may register more members than one fourth of the previous census’s sum of registered members across all parties. Article 4: Any two or more parties may create a coalition between themselves, but a coalition may not have a combined membership count more than 150% of the largest party. Article 5: Failure to adhere to articles 1, 2 or 3 will result in the party being delisted for one or more census periods in which they may not register any new members. They may still vote and create propositions for council. Article 6: Should a party be found to violate a delisting, they will be terminated. Article 7: To enforce aforementioned regulations, an independent review committee will be established. Members of this review committee will be democratically through popular vote. No two members of this committee may be registered in the same party. Article 8: Existing parties will have a 2 week grace period after the first census to sort out membership to ensure they meet regulations. Some thoughts/reasoning: Why is one fourth the limit for party size? We want to ensure competition between parties to drive progress and avoid duopolies found in the American government. Why do we want usernames to be counted? To ensure some level of integrity and to ensure no new members are being recruited during a potential delisting. Why is 3 is the proposed minimum for a party? Because 2 isn’t really enough, but the sub is still small, and we want everyone to be able to find a group of like minded individuals. Feel free to ask questions.
20260101-0 • Party Rule • Imported from Reddit - Status: Unknown
Due to all of the posts about the VIES party bill, I want to put forward a very, very simplified version of it, which could be added to the rules for basic notation. A party can be created when 3 or more people agree to create one singular party. If it is 1 person, they should be named an independent, an not have a one man party. If it is 2 people, they will remain as independents but may agree to form an alliance. I think this is a fairly easy to remember rules that will help unclutter the sub somewhat. All parties formed or pre-existing will remain unimpeded
20260104-0 • Party articles • Regulates party size and coalitions.
On Jan. 3, 2026, I, Dizzy, of sound mind and body, propose these party Bills to solve a problem. That problem, among others, is the problem of too many party leaders and not enough party members. Reminder these are not all original to me. most articles are proposed by others that I am incorporating. I will give credit as needed ARTICLE I (original prop by susamogus29) A party can be created when 3 or more people agree to create one singular party. If it is 1 person, they should be named an independent, and not a one man party. If it is 2 people, they will remain as independents but may agree to form an alliance. I think this is a fairly easy to remember rules that will help unclutter the sub somewhat. All parties formed or pre-existing will remain unimpeded ARTICLE II (original prop by No_Letterhead6010, revised by me) A census will be held on the last day of each month. Every census period, parties must publish a census of ALL registered members’ usernames. Existing parties will have a 2 week grace period after the first census to sort out membership to ensure they meet regulations. It is the duty of party leaders to conduct the aforementioned censuses. ARTICLE III (by camel) if it is apparent that one party has become belligerent towards all others(does not affect single wars between parties), and isn’t seeming to be deleted despite many attempts, then citizens may start making bills to try and stop them. ARTICLE IV (by camel) individuals or members of parties cannot make laws specifically trying to deny the right of existence for another party for their own gain or for personal grudges, this includes making bills that are targeted against specific people as well, for this should be deliberated by the judicial and congress, and whatever decision they come to is what’s shall happen of the person or party involved ARTICLE V (by No_Letterhead6010, revised by me) Any two or more parties may create a coalition between themselves, but a coalition may not have a combined membership count more than 3 times the population of the largest party.
20260104-1 • Executive council act • No summary.
Recently there have been a slew of new laws proposed and passed in council. I think that it’s good that we’ve been establishing new rules and creating order, but I keep noticing the same issue appearing in all of these laws. Namely, the lack of a regulating body to enforce and carry out these laws. Another problem I’ve noticed is that no archive of laws is being made. We have no way of knowing the laws we’ve established other than searching through old posts. This has already presented itself as a problem with the party bills, with due_camel’s bill that was passed by the council being proposed again by someone else. Therefore, in order to create a legitimate enforcement system and solve these issues, I propose the following: Definitions: -Census: as defined in Due_Camel’s party bill passed by the council Article I: A new entity is to be established; the executive cabinet. It will be comprised of ‘departments’ responsible for managing and enforcing laws regarding a specific subject assigned to individual departments. Article II: Departments will be comprised of ‘ministers’ who are assigned specific duties. Citizens will be nominated for a position in the Cabinet by the president-elect and will be appointed after being confirmed by the council in a 5/7 majority vote. No citizen may be nominated while holding another governmental office, nor may they be nominated for more than one ministerial position. After confirmation by the council, they will serve until the next cabinet is nominated and confirmed. Should the council deem a minister unfit in their duties via a 5/7 majority vote, they will be impeached and any staff appointed by their authority will be removed. The president must then nominate another citizen to take their place. Article III: A new department is to be established: the Department of Public Affairs. This department will be responsible for communicating with the general public. Two ministers will oversee the department: -Minister of the Press, responsible for informing citizens of the council’s decisions regarding recent propositions. -Minister of the Library, responsible for creating and maintaining a publicly accessible list of all bills passed by the Council. Article IV: A new department is to be established: the Department of Political Affairs. This department will be responsible for enforcing laws regarding political parties and the government. Three ministers will oversee the department: -Minister of Elections, responsible for overseeing the registration of candidates, creation of the ballot, and determining results -Minister of the Census, responsible for communicating with party leaders and registering independents on the census in accordance with previously established law. -Minister of Political Regulation, responsible for enforcing any laws concerning political parties and coalitions. Article V: Should a minister find their duties too burdensome, they may make a request to the council to expand their department and recruit aid. Should the council approve such a request, the minister may recruit a number of citizens decided by the council. Citizens recruited to aid a department will not be considered ministers. Article VI: New departments and ministerial positions will be established in one of two ways: -A bill proposing the creation of a new department or ministry passed by the council. -The president and council agreeing to split an already existing department or ministerial position’s responsibilities. Edit: Passed as of 8 January 2026
20260105-0 • Council Communication Bill • Imported from Reddit - Status: Passed
Wha I’m proposing is simple and easy to enact. Im proposing that there be a Minister of Communication who clearly communicates the actions of the council to the people. All definitions for the terms used in this bill can be found in both the constitution and due\_camels post on the party bill. Article 1: The current president shall appoint an active member of r/TeenGovernment that, he deems fit to communicate clearly to the people the councils decisions and reasons for those decisions. They will be called the Minister of Communication. If a member appointed by the president refuses to take the office, the president must accept the candidates refusal and search for someone else. Article 2: The Minister of Communication will serve their term as long as the presidents term lasts, and a new minister will be appointed by the new president unless the new president also appoints the same active member as the previous president. Article 3: If the Minister of Communication is thought to be deficient or defective, the council may impeach them and with a 4/7 vote and work in tandem with the president to appoint a new minister. Article 4: After the council has made a decision on a bill, the minister has 24 hours to make a post clearly communicating how and why the bill was either vetoed, rejected, or passed. If the minister fails to report to the people on the decisions of council, a vote is opened up to the council on whether or not the minister is to be impeached. I believe if this bill is passed then we, the people, will be able to be more in touch with the council and its decisions, thus better informing this nations citizens. Thank you for reading this far and giving this idea your time.

20260109-0 • Anticorruption Paper V • Imported from Reddit - Status: Unknown
Regarding the new ministers and cabinet: Minister of the Press: Cannot report falsely on purpose, as that would make the public believe that a bill was passed when it actually wasn’t, and vice versa. Minister of Library: Bills said to be passed in the list must actually be passed, for the same reasons as the minister of the press. Minister of Elections: Also cannot be bribed, blackmailed, threatened into lying about the results, and must report truthfully. Minister of the Census: Has to correctly label how many and who is in a party, because I can see some big drama coming from that. Ministers of Political Regulation: maintain party and coalition laws, maybe also have the minister be non partisan to make sure they won’t show as much bias to their parties or coalition. Other Papers, like ACP II and ACP III, will also apply to them.

20260110-0 • Femboy Act • No description
So recently I just realized that we as citizens pretty much CANNOT change what powers the Council does and does not have. Which is a bit unfair for us all, if Council decides to block everything that would effect them. Why would we let the people who would be most corrupt decide exactly what they want? That just kinda ruins the whole point of checks and balances. So I propose: The Femboy Act proposed by u/Kooky_Marketing_327 of the FUCK party on 01.09.26 That whenever a bill that affects or changes the Council's power is proposed by a citizen, the proposer of the bill can request a special election be held for this bill, rather than going through to Council. This special election will: be held/posted by the Minister of Elections be hosted on whatever platform the Minister chooses/uses for regular elections given to all citizens be bound to all the same regulations as regular elections be held within 2 days of the proposal being proposed require a 75% majority "yes" to pass The Council can object to this special election through a 4/7 council vote (this can be overturned by regular presidential vetoes and subject to same veto rules/overturns) The Council may also reject this bill if it passes through a 6/7 council vote (still subject to presidential vetoes and veto rules/overturns) If the proposer of the bill would like the bill to go to the Council rather than special vote, they can also do that. This bill will take effect (if it passes) immediately. This proposal is completely open to any amendments.
20260110-1 • Bed Act • Requires data a bill is enacted to be put in the bill
So I feel like whenever something gets proposed, and then passed, we don't really see much of it or hear much of it afterwards. We don't really even know if it gets implemented. I feel like this bill would help clear things up. So I'm proposing the: BED (Bill Enactment Date) Act proposed by u/Kooky_Marketing_327 of the FUCK party on 01.09.26 All proposals/bills MUST include or say when this bill will be enacted or take into effect, this includes proposals by citizens and council proposals it needs to either be a date, a marking of an event, or an immediate enactment all dates must be in MM/DD/YY marking of an event example as in: "bill will be implemented at the start of the next election cycle, when the next president is sworn in, or after the council is elected." you can also have it be enacted immediately. example: listed as "act will take effect immediately after passing" the date or time listed must be within a month and reasonable If a bill fails to meet the requirement, Council can either amend the bill and add a time of their own that does comply, or reject the bill completely (proposer can re add date and propose again ofc) this will be decided by Council (vote, consensus, whatnot) if Council rejects, they must notify the proposer immediately and inform them that their bill did not meet the criteria This bill will be enacted immediately (if it passes ofc) This bill is completely open to any amendments by the Council
20260112-0 • Councilman Status Act • Imported from Reddit - Status: Passed
On The Council: As it has been apparent as of late, people are dissatisfied with the council, due to their inefficiency and secrecy. The council is unable to operate at their best capacity when a large number of its members aren’t present or active, thus I, roemaencepartnaer, propose this bill. **Article I - Inactive** A council member can he declared inactive in two ways, if they did not provide prior notification of their absence. * Council member has not voted on the last three proposals. OR * Council member has not been active in chat for the last two days. A valid vote is: “Aye”, ”Nay”, or “Abstain”. If one abstains from a vote, they are required to provide their reason for doing so. Each prop has 24 hours to be voted on, once Council Members are asked to vote. Active in the chat can be considered sending one message in the Council Chat. **Article II - Consequence** If a council member is declared inactive, they are to be alerted of this status and given 24 hours after this message to give a reason for absence. The Council, excluding “inactive“ member, will deliberate on whether or not provided reasoning is acceptable. If not found acceptable, Council members may decide on a consequence. Options contain, but are not limited to: * Impeachment * Public Announcement * A fine (If we ever develop a currency) If one has been marked inactive before, and were not pardoned, they are required to disclose that information if running for any other position of office after the council term has ended. **Article III - Not Applicable** This bill does not apply on holidays. **Article IV - Elaboration** If impeached on account of this bill, a replacement should be announced within the next hour of impeachment’s announcement. The replacement should be the highest runner-up from the most recent election. If passed this bill will go into effect on 1/12/2026. \- Sincerely, Roe

After a month in council, I can officially say that I have seen and experienced what it is like to partake in this experiment. However, I have also taken note of who speaks in council. That is why we at the Lion Party are proposing this bill. 1; All people present in the Council GC who are not elected representatives of the people will not be allowed to speak. This will include Due\_Camel, moderators, the Press Secretary, or other people present who were not elected to serve in council. An exception to this rule applies to the Press Secretary, who may input their thoughts after a decision is made in a single message, and Due\_Camel, who may speak if a question is directed towards him. 2; Prop 1 will include moderators. If moderator action is required in the council GC, the perpetrator will be messaged directly. 3; Breaking this rule will require punishment, chosen by members of the subreddit in a dedicated post. Options for punishment will be made by the judicial branch on a case-to-case basis, however options may be made by council if the judicial branch is unavailable or unresponsive. The punishments shall be put in a reddit poll, always including a “Remake the punishments” option. 4; If a set of punishments are, by the people’s vote, sent to be remade, then the punishments will be overturned and a new set will be demanded of the judicial branch. Suggestions may be made by people in comments of the aforementioned poll.

A new ministerial position will be established: The Minster of Foreign Relations This position will have the duties of advertising r/TeenGovernment to other subs to hopefully grow the sub, for example posting an advertisement where people might be interested and see it, outside of the r/TeenGovernment hub of subreddits.

20260201-0 • Prohibition Of Voting Change Bill • Imported from Reddit - Status: Passed
This bill is simple. It outlawed anyone changing their vote in an election for council, president, justice, etc. This is so that nobody is biased by the exit poll of the day and changes their vote. Also it’s complicated when you are counting the votes. Does a changed vote count? Does it not count? Well, as of this bill’s passing, it would be illegal to change your vote in elections unless your ballot was filled out incorrectly (e.g. not putting voter code). If an election changes (e.g. a candidate drops out of the race), a voter can change their vote ONLY if one or more of their previous choices were affected by it (let’s say username votes candidate 1, 2, and 3, but then candidate 2 drops out of the race, username can change their vote to candidate 4) and the only choice or choices they can change is the one affected by the change in the election. Previous voting changes shall be forgiven and the changed votes shall be counted. This bill will go into effect immediately apon passage
20260201-1 • The modmail act • Helps welcome new users into the community
As defined by the constitution, a citizen is any unbanned member of the subreddit. However, from personal experience I can attest that it is exceedingly difficult for new citizens to participate in public life, or even exercise their basic rights like voting, as so much information is scattered and gatekept (not to mention the sub rules and wiki are very outdated). This has been demonstrated by the low voter turnout. To address this issue, I propose that our government enact as follows: That when a new user joins the subreddit, they get an automatic message via modmail, which provides essential information on the subreddit, its structure and governance, as well as their constitutional rights and responsibilities. The modmail will include a link to the ARPD website, in order to access information about specifics like laws and individual citizens. Within the automatic modmail will be a direct link to the voter registration form, provided so that it will be easier for a citizen to exercise their constitutional right to vote.

20260215-1 • Bob Economy Plan Amendment • Proposes a game-economy.
The Bob Economy Plan amendment PREAMBLE: What if I told you we have an immense opportunity? An opportunity to make something accessible. An opportunity to make something without scandal. We have an opportunity to make something clearly truly ours. Our own game for the economy. I have spoken with Zeedith from the ARPD, this is an achievable goal. I encourage us not to be daunted by this great task, rather excited by the expansive possibilities layed out before us. If we refuse to take up this task I will be left asking "what we could have tried." I want to be able to say "what we have done" or even "what we attempted to do" That is why I call on council to pass this amendment and accept this quest to truly make something great for ourselves. If I am to again use my favorite quote of my journal "fear is the enemy, fear must be be defeated by optimism and spared no quarter." (This may be done as a spoken speech on the discord later on) Section I: The Tegovian Dollar Article I: The Tegovian Dollar (TGD) Will be represented with a 𝕋 Article II: The Tegovian Dollar will initially be as a FIAT currency but the government can pass policy to change that if they so please Article III: The Dollar will be minted solely by the central government Article IV: if states are implemented, they may not print any competing currency Article V: The central government will mint all the 𝕋 in circulation. Section II: How businesses will operate Article I: Any corporation, workers cooperative, or other similar enterprise, shall be considered together under the umbrella terms “Economic entity” and "businesses" which can be used by the law as needed. Section III: Game management, and BT Article I: A game will be made by a team of volunteers, this game will follow any Articles on this game's design Article II: There will be a team (which will be referred to as Balance Team, or BT) which will manage the balance and any rules in the game which would not naturally be in the hands of a real government. Article III: The BT will be appointed by the president with council approval by default, (and will likely be the programers of the game) though elections can be held at the government's discretion, structure of the BT will operate in a way determined by the government (which can include letting the team determine it independently if the government so wishes) (The BT cannot be filled by government officials but moderators can, it is not legally considered a government office) Article IV: The actions the BT engages their authority as the Balance Team in must not be partisan in nature, solely to balance and improve the game in a fair and reasonable way. Article V: This team can simulate natural disasters and crises if implemented Section V Game development: Article I: This game will be developed by a team of volunteers (which unless directly mentioned elsewhere by the law will not be considered a government position) selected by the government or current development team members. Article II: This team will attempt to complete and maintain the game, they will do this in whatever time frame is reasonable for them Section V: The game itself. Article I: Variability is far more important than a strict plan, therefore the developer team shall have some freedoms in what order they implement features and many small details, but the below section will be the guidelines for how the game should be designed which can be altered by simple majority vote in council and BT majority support, or an an amendment with 2 thirds council support, but this plan cannot be intentionally deviated from independently by the team, which is the following rant: First off we have a finite amount of land, land that can be bought and sold. And one can extract resources from certain types of land. These resources can be bought and sold as well. These resources can be used to make tools to get resources more efficiently, or make facilities to put together resources to make new resources. How does one go about extraction and other work? By using their labor, everyone has a finite amount of labor to use every simulated day. This labor can be used on one's own land or someone else's. Someone can pay for someone else to use their labor for a job. There should be a threshold, where if one uses labor past that often they risk getting a burn out effect, forcing one not to work Everyone would also have a certain amount of satisfaction, doing work and being hungry/thirsty reduces it, resting, using certain entertainment equipment, going to certain locations that can be made, and the consumption of some products can raise it. Resources and labor can be used to make homes of various quality, living in one raises satisfaction. Everyone has hunger and thirst, and must consume food and liquids or risk massive productivity debuffs. There is also risk of injury, which by the owner of a facilities investment into some improvements it can be reduced. When injured one cannot work. There is also illness, by working with or shopping near someone ill one can become ill. Each disease has it's own effects. Healthcare can help remedy many of these debuffs, and reduce disease risk. People can create corporations, which work economicly similar to people, they can own anything people can, buy, sell, and hire. Differences are that they can be owned by multiple people, and can have their rights be different from people, of course dependent on the laws by the government. Unions should also be able to be made, dependent on government laws, to be a body which can negotiate on the behalf of the workers, and call strikes in which labor is stopped. There should also be management, to hire people for a facility they need management, while the owners could manage one they cannot do multiple. After a certain number of managers eventually a separate manager to manage managers would be needed, as scale increases there will be more layers. To make a change it must go from the top through all of management to reach the facilities. Also one can set routines so they can continue to work, run a business, and sustain themselves when they are away. Also there should be a tech tree by using labor one can do research on the tech tree, though special equipment is needed for some. Once someone unlocks something it is unlocked for everyone. But depending on patent laws the inventing person or company has full rights for a time and may sell or lease out these rights. perhaps the starting tech tree at the time in further vote 3. Also as one does a type of labor they level up that skill becoming more productive and using less labor to do the same work. There should also be education, making one more productive and becoming able to do certain research requires some types of education. Certain advanced jobs asides research may also require certain education. Education can be administered by the government or private institutions. The government can, if it so chooses, create SOE's (STATE OWNED ENTITIES) which can do anything a private company can do, including research, but is owned by the government. Article II: further choices will be put up to vote by majority and will be enshrined here if passed 1. Should the economy be purely player run or should “bots” exist (mathematical players, not gen ai) 2. How should one engage in crime, should it be impossible or should the development team attempt to implement a system? 3. Should the tech tree start at year 1900 or before the industrial revolution? 4. Should BT function the moderation of the game or should a separate team be appointed/elected 4.b if 4 is "separate" than should it be elected or appointed? 5. For the week after ratification any details in article I of this section can be put up to a similar vote in council, this is so it can be changed but the government cannot constantly alter it for it's own benefit. Article III: All citizens have the right to participate if they are able, but cannot be required participate in the economy and will not lose any rights or privileges on the sub or discord if they do not participate, asides the enjoyment of the economy.
20260215-0 • Anti-Corruption Paper VI • Forms independent Registration and Elections Committee
As record-keeping, registration, voter fraud, alt accounts and elections are all putting the sub in chaos due to no easy system to follow, (The February Voter Crisis) we, MinecraftGuy7401 and Heavy_Stomach_7633 (Sean), propose that a new independent Registration and Elections Committee (REC) be created to handle the following: Keeping records of all users on the subreddit as per the monthly census, Making sure every eligible voter is registered as soon as possible after they join, Holding the official responsibility of counting all votes come election time, and actively posting live results, 3A. The REC will do this in two separate spreadsheets, one public, one private. After they get the vote, they will write it on the private spreadsheet with all the info, and then copy and paste it WITHOUT the username and voter code, to the public spreadsheet, 4. Monitoring the official records in order to clamp down on fraud and subvert any usage of alt accounts or any other illegal act that could wrongly influence voting, within the committee’s jurisdiction in order to maintain order, 5. Notifying any registered voters who have not voted at a certain point before polls close with a reminder to vote in any reliable manner (dms, Discord, comments, etc.) to ensure maximum voter turnout. The Chief of this independent committee shall be chosen by resolution of the Council, passed by a simple majority (5/9) and it is the Chief’s responsibility to select other members using a fair and merit-based application process, similar to a job application. Further provisions can be added later by council if deemed necessary. This Paper was made possible by: u/MinecraftGuy7401, who helped write it u/Heavy_Stomach_7633, who helped write it u/British_QuestionMark, who reviewed it u/Bob-The15th, who reviewed it P.S. The formatting for this is pretty weird, so here’s the better version that says the same thing, but is formatted better. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bpAiOBg_n82RZ-E0ETd32CGrAg14hTVitG2Ju6pVuZo/edit?usp=sharing
20260216-0 • define population act • Defines the term "population"
So recently, I noticed that some think the sub's "population" is the number of people who have joined the subreddit (clicked the join button), while some think it is those who have filled out the census. A lot of the people who have pressed join most likely have forgotten about the sub already, have aged out, are alt accounts, or simply clicked the button on accident. I also noticed that if you follow the first definition, it makes bills like the Petition Act or Section 10 Article 1 and 3 of the Constitution essentially useless, as those couple hundred non active accounts will NOT sign petitions, nor join parties/make coalitions. Making the percentages required for these to become impossible to fill. Following the Merriam-Webster dictionary definition of census, it is an official survey/count of the population. "Census. Because some people join but leave or there feed doesn’t show it, or just don’t care. The population should be counted by census" - Councilmember u/GAAABE77 "It makes no sense to do [those who have joined], [because] only 1/10 people here are active" - UMTG leader u/Dry_Editor_785 "Yeah, so having the census determine population shouldn't be an issue" - Councilmember u/MagmaFlameFire2 on Discord This bill will officialy make the definition of "population" in the sub to all those who have filled out the Census. So I propose: The define population act proposed by u/Kooky_Marketing_327 of the FUCK party on 02.15.26 The official definition of the term "Population," will be made to mean all those who have officially registered in the Census (aka Registered Citizens), A defintion is added for the term "Registered Citizen," meaning a person who is a citizen that has officialy registered in the Census. The definition of Citizen will remain the same (see Constitition), The constitution, any bills, and/or laws referencing "population" shall henceforth use this definition unless otherwise explicitly defined to use another definition This bill will take effect immediately upon passage. if this needs to be an amendment it'll become one as needed. open to amendment by council.
20260217-1 • six seven amendment • Allows all members of the council GC to post links to bills.
so basically as a Council member I keep noticing it’s really confusing as when bills are put up to vote in the Council Voting GC, most people don’t know if that is the “official” link being put up, as some think it has to be the minister of press and some don’t. This bill is to clarify that ANY member of council voting gc may post the link to vote on the act. So I propose: six seven amendment proposed by u/Kooky_Marketing_327 of the FUCK party on 02.16.26 Any member of the Council Voting GC is allowed to put up a link to vote for bills. This includes the minister of press, mods, the president, and council. uh that’s like pretty much it… what were you, expecting a number 2? haha this amendment will take effect right away immediately asap anyways this is open to amendment by council :3 also this isn’t meant to be against camel bail i js had this in my drafts and never psoeted. also sorry for repost turns out this is an amendment?
20260217-3 • The Flair Act Part 2 • Allows editable post flairs.
A few months ago, we had the Flair Act, which gave us custom user flairs. However, we never got the same right with post flairs. So that is this bill’s purpose. Article I: Some new flairs will be created, such as: Deal, Peace talks, War, Coalition Creation, Coalition Advertising, and any others that the mods can think of. Article II: There shall be a of custom post flair, just like the user flairs, and, if the mods decide, they can make multiple of different colors. Article III: This act will go into effect immediately upon passage This is open to amendment by council
20260219-0 • Basic anti-trust act • Prevents monopolies.
Basic anti-trust act Preface: This proposal is not meant to be the full breadth of my economic beliefs, but rather a baseline proposal to avoid monopolies in the labor and consumer markets, something that is perhaps the most barebones anti trust policy can be. Do not take this personally if you worry you're company could be in violation of this than consider dividing up or wait to see if competition emerges, you have yet to spend money on these projects anyways, this is not a punitive system, any assets lost would be compensated, and much cannot yet be enforced without currency to buy these companies. I reiterate this is the most basic and barebones foundation for anti-trust, it can be expanded as needed, and should not be considered a personal slight if this happens to go against your economic interests, this was to occur sooner or later so it's better these ground rules are made early so they can be abided by long before the economy is off the ground. Article I: If an economic entity, person, or coordinated roup of people, are found to clearly have the economic leverage to exert undue manipulation on the prices of labor or goods that they sell in the market and/or are of operation, they shall be divided in a way percribed by the courts with the tools in article II. Article II: There are various ways that monopolies can be delt with, one can divide an economic entity into multiple new ones and have them auctioned off or sold to an interested buyer (the proceeds going to the owner), they can also instead of going to auction for a single buyer have the sold stocks go onto the public trading, and optionally let the owner keep a share which would limit the previously held influence, these tools, and others like it as deemed reasonable by the courts, can be used as needed when engaging in anti-trust. Article III: If it is clear an entity cannot be divided due to not functioning in a divided form, being a one person service operation, or any other such reason they will be exempt, if a company can be considered a "Natural monopoly" which means they would have dramatically reduced service at a smaller scale, such as a utility company, they can also continue but are expected to have either stringent regulations attached or to be nationalized into being an SOE, at the legislatives standard bill decision processes discretion. Article IV: This enforcement can be handled by standard prosecution methods unless a minister like the minister of political regulations is created for corporations in which this power will be transferred to them. Article V: If it is clear a merger or grouping of figures or entities that can cause something which violates this that merger or grouping can be preemptively disbanded or quickly undone.
20260219-3 • The Amended Amended Vice President Act • Adds vice presidents.
(credit to Ok-Clothes for original idea) The VP position has long been floating around as an idea in everyone’s minds. It has been tried to do twice in the previous weeks, however there has been one major problem no one in council really liked. And that was the VP’s power to vote in council, and have their vote have more weight (would be the deciding factor in case of a tie). So, this act aims to fix that, removing the issue once and for all. I give you, folks, the Amended Amended Vice President Act! (if it is one, it will be labeled as an amendment) Article I: Every election season, all presidential candidates will choose a running mate, and if the candidate wins, that running mate will become their Vice President. Article II: The Vice President will have two purposes. For the President, in the case of death, resignation, impeachment, disease, or anything that pops up that makes the president unable to serve, whether that be temporarily or permanently, the Vice President will act as President, choose their own Vice President, and so on. However, if the original Vice President is also unable to serve, the list of succession would go as described in Article VI, Section III of the Constitution. The second purpose is to help advise the President if they are split on an issue or simply want a second opinion. Article III: If the President does not like their Vice President, they can start a vote within council to decide whether or not to impeach the Vice President, and if the Vice President is impeached, a special election will be held to get a new one, for the public to vote on. Article IV: This will go into effect immediately upon passing, and is open to amendment by council.

so this is the pp (privacy protection) bill. yes i did name it the pp bill. this was to avoid people from taking screenshots of messages without their consent and sharing. its like how ur not allowed to take photos of people irl w/out consent and post online. so anyway i propose that: the pp act proposed by u/Kooky_Marketing_327 of the FUCK party on 02.19.26 Taking non-consensual screenshots/screen recordings of messages and distributing the photo afterward will become illegal to take legal screenshots, you must first ask the other person if they consent (verbal/typed) to taking a screenshot. by consenting to taking ss, you also consent to it being shared. you may also request to have things changed like censoring certain parts. screenshots being used for blackmail purpose will also become illegal. this only applies to POLITICAL blackmail and not joke blackmail (yes frog im lookin at you). this bill will NOT apply: to joke situations and "for fun" screenshots (example: frog's blackmail on the discord, or catching soon to be deleted horny messages on the discord) if the name and profile and any/all identifying information is censored out (like the epstein files, yes) if it involves something illegal (example: image of banned player confessing to alt usage) screenshots of other images (example: reaction images) to screenshots you do NOT plan on sharing back on in TeenGov or any associated sub or discord to the Minister of Press and all messages in the teengov council voting and regular gc to the official TeenGov discord/sub as everyone can freely be in it and therefore everyone can already see it. any information gathered during LEGAL espionage bill will be implemented immediately This bill is open to amendment by council.

hey so this is to make formal agreements we can have and make it more clear and easy to use. so i propose: :3 act proposed by u/Kooky_Marketing_327 of the FUCK party on 02.20.26 The creation of contracts that can be signed by two or more people/groups: These contracts will be legally binding, meaning that breaking the contract may result in legal consequences contracts can include mergers, acquisitions, NDAs (non disclosure agreement), partnership contracts, or many other deals. 2. addition of rules for contracts: contracts are not required to be written in full formal language. the groups/persons signing and proposing the contract must both completely agree on the terms/language in the contract contracts can take place out of SMP, like on discord both sides MUST record an unaltered recording of the signing of the contract like on a screenshot or a google doc the signer must be aware they are signing a contract for the contract to be legally binding to sign a contract, both sides must put their username and acknowledge they are aware it is legally binding and agree to sign the contract contracts do NOT have to be made public contracts are NOT legally binding if either side is a spy, and that user is in spy mode (actively spying on the other signing party) at the very moment. (example being a spy joining a party discord and having to sign NDA to join discord, that contract is not legally binding) if a contract is signed involving illegal activites, that contract is not legally binding (example being NDA to not speak about illegal activity happening) the courts get final say and can interpret contracts all contracts written before this will remain legally binding as long as both sides knew what they were signing into implemented immediately upon passing open to amendment by council EDIT: with bobs comment amendment

20260222-0 • Ballot expansion amendment • No summary.
Preface: I have realized that despite a council expansion the number of votes one has in council electons does not, this creates strategic vote risks among other things therefore this will rectify that. Article 1: At passage the number of votes a citizen has in council elections increases by 1 making one have 4 votes in council elections. Article 2: By simple majority in council a vote to change the number of votes a citizen has in council electons can be held. This number of council votes annot be less than one third of council size. If a council membership expansion would cause a violation of the previous rule the number of council election votes will automatically expand by enough to follow it.

The Estrogen Act This act sees to add a new thing to automod. A meme so to say. The trigger word to trigger the automod rule can be anything the council decides, yet the trigger word must remain hidden from the public to keep it fun and start it randomly. Here is an example rule for it. --- type: comment moderators_exempt: false title+body (includes-word): ['frog'] message: | Heheh you've fallen for my trap! >:3c Welcome to the new epidemic of r/TeenGovernment. If you fail to participate, you will bring shame onto reddit and all frog kind. You have been infected. Now make a post saying "say the word frog for a specific reason.", or something similar. The infection shall spread silently. The only rule is to not spoil the game for others by telling people what saying frog does. --- The wording and everything of this automod rule can be changed. However the word cannot be frog as that will ruin it because everyone will know the word. If this act is passed, the moderators will be required to implement this with the trigger word and message of the Council's choice.

20260227-0 • ARPD integration act. • Integrates the ARPD.
ARPD integration act Note: This is quite basic in its current form. --- Preface: The Accountability, Reproducibility, Persistence, and Documentation organization or commonly **ARPD** has had a long-standing reputation of accurate and recent information on r/Teengovernment for the longest time. Being founded less than 2 weeks after the sub itself was created they've served the community faithfully for most of the subs life at this point. Despite this fact the ARPD has never been officially regulated nor recognized as an official source for information. Therefore- after a poll which the result to whether or not the ARPD should be government-regulated showed favor for regulation as long as it didn't damper the "lawful chaotic" style the ARPD holds to we've decided to set forth the following. §1 Recognition The ARPD shall henceforth be considered an official, reputable source for bills, parties, member info, and other important information. §2 Regulation and duties §2.1 Government ministers and ministries (a) The ARPD shall provide active login credentials to view, edit, and update information on any ARPD-run website which is capable of being updated. (b) The Aforementioned ministers and ministries shall update- when the see fit, persuant information on the ARPD system. exempli gratia: The minister of press whose job pertains to announcing the status of bills may update the ARPD law-tracker when said law is passed. §2.2 Regulations and restrictions upon the ARPD and its members (a) No ARPD member shall knowingly take a partisan action in an official capacity. (b) The ARPD keeps the right to shut down non-critical services in protest of actions it sees as a threat to r/teengovernment itself as long as core information such as Bill information is still accessible. (c) New members of the ARPD must be approved by either the president or council. (d) Existing members of the ARPD at the signing of this bill shall not have to take part in the previous term. §3 Enforcement This bill shall go into effect upon passing.

The trial time will be chosen by the defendant and prosecution. From there, a jury will be chosen by a random wheel. ANY judge will spin a wheel of the names of people willing to be jurors. There will be seven jurors, and they are able to serve in later trials if they want. A juror can be rejected by the prosecutor or defendant if they are apprehensive about the juror being biased. Jurors decide whether the defendant is innocent or guilty. The jury will appoint a judge, assuming the judge will be avaliable at the time of the trial.

(Sorry if the formatting on this bill isn't ideal. I've never done one of these before) This bill establishes that: * At any time during a term, the person holding the government position of president (or another individual assigned by that person) may conduct an approval rating poll for themselves. * These polls must include, at minimum, three options: one that signifies approval, one that signifies disapproval, and one that signifies a neutral stance. * These polls may happen at any time during this person's term and the times they're conducted are up to personal preference as long as there are gaps of 2 weeks, specifically 14 days, at minimum between the closing date of each poll before another is conducted. * These polls must be left open for votes over a period of 3 days or 72 hours. * There are no legal punishments for failing or choosing against conducting an approval rating poll, however citizens reserve the right to hold their own polls regarding the approval rating of the president if they feel the need. * If a fair and unbaised approval rating poll determines the president's approval rating is below 30%, the council shall move to hold a vote on whether or not the president should face impeachment. * If a president is impeached and refuses to step down, they may face criminal punishment.

General Reform, less clarification, amendment. Preface: A General set of reforms which will aid in clear and stable governance, is of course up to amendment by council. Article I: Any form of legal council for someone does not have the same obligation to bring evidence of crime to law (as to preserve attorney client privilege) Article II: For the specific case of council size limit determination the prior sub size based method will be used. (I have noticed some debate on the exact size so we shall determine that afterwards in a separate proposal) Article III: It is illegal to remove evidence of a crime, violations shall be considered a high crime. Article IV: The Minister of Library shall be merged under the Wiki team as with the wiki team there is minimal clear authority for the minister of Library which would not be filled by the Wiki team, we do not need a position to exist at such a level which has no clear job set out for it. Article V: Any council member who is considered to have a clear “Unique personal conflict of interest” on a proposition cannot make a vote which favors their personal conflict of interest, forced to either abstain (which mathematically reduces the total votes needed, for example if two abstain a 2 out of three voting majority passes something, this in parentheses is an explanation of existing law, not a proposal) or vote against their interest. “Unique personal conflict of interest” is defined as a conflict of interest that is not inherent to simply being in council, is not clearly held by over 2 fifths of the population, is not simply due to one's party, and is not held by a majority of the government. Article VI: A minister of economics shall be created at the economies release. This minister shall hold authority over the regulation of companies in a similar way to that the minister of political regulations holds. They can also make economic decisions, this is as not everyone in council is a fellow economics nerd and many vote against things they don't understand out of principle, something we should respect. The Minister's decisions on economic policy are able to be overridden by council, and the minister cannot overrule decisions by council, including economic directives for them to carry out. These economic decisions shall initially be taxes and spending, but by majority vote they can be given new authorities. Council can give a broad set of economic principles to be followed if they choose, though if a clear economic crisis occurs said principles can be suspended until council can give new directives. Article VII: If there is a time where a position has no minister, possibly through resignation, the president can take on authorities of that position until a new minister is appointed. This is so vital government services can continue during such times, and is intended as an emergency stop gap measure. Article VIII: The Minister of political regulations is abolished and authorities are transferred to census due to rarely being needed and being closely related to the census results (Former minister of political regulations recommendation, due to reddit issues they resigned on discord)

My proposal (that I probably should've submitted back when it was thought of) is a simple limitation on when a crime can still be tried. \#1: The time limit, if accepted, would be 3 months after the original crime was committed \#2: This does not extend to crimes committed before this was put into effect \#3: This right may be revoked for a certain individual if the justices decide upon the crime being so heinous that they must be tried anyway. (This is intended for bullying, harassment, or causing any harm) \#4: Time spent banned or timed out is not added to the limitation. If you spend a month banned, there is still 3 months that you may be brought to trial. This is a very basic summarization on what my idea would be

Thanks to froggy for the original idea Article I: All workers are guaranteed some form of compensation for labor Article II: A minimum wage shall be determined by the economic minister soon after the economies start (FIAT currency having variable value makes setting one rate here difficult) Article III: There will be regulations set for labor safety and consumer protection by the economy minister which will be in line with the games design to be doable Article IV: Council can choose to override and alter the economy ministers decisions given in articles II and III Article V: To prevent massive conflict of interest the economy minister cannot own a company, own part of a company, or be employed outside of the government (the government will likely determine officials wages soon after the economies release, so they will be able to have money without other employment.)

is this something that already exists? if not, is it feasible? i was in AP world watching a discussion and that made me think of this since we use the human record books very frequently. i think it can be made very easily with carrd to have interactive subsections of general history. (apologies for any typos, i am typing on phone and since the keyboard is small it is difficult for me to type properly) could include: 1) history on the first constitution/creation of tg 2) general timeline that would be edited overtime 3) significant contributions and achievements by members/those who hold government positions. (i think besides campaigns thiso could serve as further reason for someone to vote for a candidate if they like what that candidate contributed) 4) history on the formation of parties and founders 5) literally anything related to the history that’s significant

This idea is meant to avoid future teen goonerments, or other similar situations. \#1: A server/gc having teen government members does not make it a teen government channel \#2: If a channel speaks directly upon events in teen government, it is not considered a teen government channel \#3: If a channel's main purpose is Teen government-related, it is considered a Teen government server \#4: Crimes, according to teen government law, cannot be enforced using information found in non teen government servers. Yet, conspiring/threatening to break a law may result in a warning or temporary ban. Information in unrelated servers may be used as a test of character in court, the extent to which this is dependent on the overseeing judge. \#5: A server will be considered a teen government server if it fits 1 or more of these conditions. 1: The server speaks mostly of teen government, 2: the server is made for teen government purposes, 3: Majority involved agrees upon it being a teen government server 70% up, 4: the server is a government-related server (Court, but in the future more), and 5: If the creator, someone who must be a citizen of teen government, makes that choice. But, all of this may be completely revoked in the circumstance a moderator of the main Discord says so or if removed by trial. \#6: Prosecution based on evidence found in a non-teen government server shall lead the prosecutor to stand trial for violation of this act.

Entertainment Economy amendment Preface: The entertainment amendment would add the concept of entertainment and boredom to the economy, which is a rather entertaining new facet to this in-development economy allowing things like shows, Television, and Resorts to be viable sections of business. As entertainment has a very high demand in the real world, this amendment would attempt to simulate such demand in Bob/Zeedith’s TG economy, §1: Entertainment requirement Article 1: Along with the already written-in requirements such as food, water, and rest, all citizens need to be sufficiently entertained, or risk insanity/several strong debuffs. Article 2: With certain items or services offering much more entertainment than others, after a certain point being entertained becomes a direct buff to a citizen’s worker efficiency, and allows them to apply more labor than possible at baseline. Article 3: Adding to the rest requirement already present, citizens getting routine, and often off-days would add to their worker efficiency, and function the same as a mild entertainment buff. The longer any citizen goes without a break, say a full week, their efficiency and labor will quickly decline, encouraging businesses to give regular breaks to their employees. (This may be already mentioned to an extent in the original economy amendment, or in subsequent acts involving it) §2: What gives Entertainment Article 1: Many kinds of Technology would offer more or less entertainment, often more advanced technology is more built for the entertainment then less advanced. For example: a radio would be right near the start of an entertainment section of the tech tree if economic developers decide to make one. A radio would be simple, accessible relatively early, be cheap, and offer a fair amount of entertainment, thus making a radio a viable long-term option for a Business, or citizen. While something like a Box Television would be much higher on the tech tree, be more expensive, but offer a lot of entertainment, which alone makes them viable. (This article is up to the interpretation of the dev team, what is given here are only examples of how items could work, a radio might end up working differently in the economy, depending on what the developers deem suited for the economy) Article 2: Places such as Resorts, fancy restaurants, parks, or public attractions would offer a lot of entertainment, opening up opportunities for Zoos, Theme parks, Hotels, ect. Thank you for reading, TRUST US with your Entertainment!

Section 1: A new section is to be added to the judiciary. This section will be called depositions Article 1: All lawyers may issue depositions for all witnesses. Article 2: Depositions are legally courtrooms, and all rules are applied Article 3: Witnesses have the right to have counsel with them when the deposition happens Article 4: Depositions are exempt from all laws; past and previous, that involve screenshots Article 5: Depositions are automatically admitted during trial Section 2: Pre-Trial Matters Article 1: All pre-trial matters are subject to the RoE. Article 2: Pre-Trial matters may only concern these things, * Evidence automatically admitted * objection arguments being held at constructive sidebars Section 3: Addendums to the RoE (Rules of Evidence) 1-10 are already law 11: All depositions are automatically admitted before trial 12: All relevant statements about the crime are automatically exempt from Hearsay objections Section 4: Exceptions to Hearsay objections. Article 1: Hearsay Objections * **Present Sense Impression**. A statement describing or explaining an event or condition, made while or immediately after the declarant perceived it. * **Then-Existing Mental, Emotional, or Physical Condition**. A statement of the declarant’s then-existing state of mind (such as motive, intent, or plan) or emotional, sensory, or physical condition (such as mental feeling, pain, or bodily health), but not including a statement of memory or belief to prove the fact remembered or believed unless it relates to the validity or terms of the declarant’s will.' * **Recorded Recollection**. A record that: (A) is on a matter the witness once knew about but now cannot recall well enough to testify fully and accurately; (B) was made or adopted by the witness when the matter was fresh in the witness’s memory; and (C) accurately reflects the witness’s knowledge. Article 2: Exceptions to Speculation Objections * State of Mind: While guessing another's thoughts is speculation, a witness can describe actions or statements that allow the jury to infer a state of mind. Section 5: New Objections * Calls for Hearsay. A "calls for hearsay" objection is raised when a lawyer asks a witness to testify about a statement made outside of court to prove the truth of the matter asserted. Such testimony is generally inadmissible because the original speaker cannot be cross-examined. E G: "What did he tell you?" or "What did the letter say? * Speculative: The witness is speculating Section 6: Rationally based perception. Rationally Based Perception allows witnesses to offer opinions or inferences grounded in their own sensory experiences (seeing, hearing, touching) rather than specialized expertise.

The idea behind this is a simple database that records the crimes a user has committed. Created mostly for the upcoming arc trial, the upcoming economy, and further scenarios the future may hold. \#1: A new section shall be added to the wiki where this shall be recorded if passed. \#2: When a user is found guilty of a crime, their name and crime shall be recorded in the wikipedia. \#3: If the user owns a important users page their crime must be stated on that page. \#4: Discrimination caused by a crime would at first give a warning, and if extreme would give a rule 1 violation \#5: Victim names will not be placed in these records without the consent of the victims. If there are none then this rule is naught. \#6: A crime can only be something that a court decides you guilty of, not a moderator, MET, or any other position of power. \#7: In the case the criminal has D.I.D, only the alter responsible shall be named, this is also what happens in the case of multiple people using the same account.

Summary: Justices may grant a convict the punishment of "community service" instead of a pure ban. \#1: This may only occur for minor crimes (ex: it cannot be for bullying, harassment, doxing, NSFW posts, fraud, personal attacks, threats, or the breaking of another user's human rights). \#2: The justices, if they see fit, may lower or completely remove a sentence if they settle upon 'community service'. This requires a 2/3 Majority approval rate or above, rounded down, in a vote between justices. \#3: Community service may include the following. 1: Updating wiki pages (if a user inputs invalid information or spam in the wiki pages, they will lose this privilege and return to trial for resentencing. Updating a wiki article is only available for articles that the ministry of documentation has specifically marked; if none are available, then this segment is to be ignored.). 2: Unpaid labor in objectively community assisting companies (Registered Non-Governmental Organizations, yet the justices are up to deciding the location, it cannot be a government-run organization) \#4: This proposition would also force the responsibility of ensuring the convict serves their sentence to a prison guard, the one being decided among the online justices. Failure to ensure the sentence is done will result on the very guard being placed on trial on whether they shall remain in their position. \#5: After 2 entire days on the dot (48 hours) if the sentence has yet to see any significant progress, the convict is to be resentenced in court for their original ban. Significant progress is up to the presiding guard, but may be overturned by the justices on a unanimous decision. \#6: A convict may always deny community service, a decision which may not be overturned by a justice, and in this circumstance, they must be issued a normal sentencing. Once given, the convict may not request community service, losing this privilege. \#7: A convict may only be punished to a community service sentence that could be completed in a reasonable time. A sentence that would require a convict to spend more than an hour a day would be deemed excessive punishment. \#8: A sentence's time limit is to be decided upon by the justices on a 2/3 vote. \#9: This is considered to be a voluntary alternative to incarceration. All community service is seen as consented to and not falling under any forced labor/slavery legal issues. Refusal to perform community service is completely up to the convict and their legal right. \#10: Serving community service should be recorded, as well as falling under the Criminal Records Act. Definitions: A sentencing that may fall under community service is as follows \*Non-malicious spam (Minimum of 20 messages a minute, but less than 30) \*Incorrect flairing \*Slightly offensive humor (Up to the offended party, but if it is to the point of racial, religious, or discriminatory, it immediately breaks rule 1 and cannot be considered as this point \*undisclosed Alt use (if the alt is used for election fraud, this is considered null) \- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Definitions: A sentencing that may fall under community service is as follows \*Non-malicious spam (Minimum of 20 messages a minute, but less than 30) \*Incorrect flairing. (the only situation in which incorrect flairing could lead to community service is repeated offenses, repeated offenses being a minimum of 3 incorrect post flairing, this count being reset every 2 months) \*undisclosed Alt use (if the alt is used for election fraud, this is considered null, and another sentence must be given)

Preface: Since [the Unique Bill Identifier bill](https://tg.zerr.cc/bills/view?bid=20260212-1) was vetoed and there is still no mechanism in place for this I thought I'd propose a simpler but equally reliable mechanism for one of the problem that bill addressed- amending a bill/proposition after it has been posted. While the UBIB would've addressed this by incrementing the Bill ID if it's amendmended and requiring it be reposted as to the original edited, this bill seeks to solve the issue with a simpler solution. --- §1 Terms §1.1: All changes to a bill made after proposition must be clearly stated in a footnote stating what was changed and optionally for what reason. This is to prevent someone from creating a simple, useful bill, getting positive and/or supportive comments, then modifying it to mock support for a disliked proposition. §1.2: Footnotes are not required for the following: (a): Changes that do not affect the meaning, e.g. spelling fixes. (b): Clarifications or rewordings that clarify an existing rule. (c): Reformatting or otherwise changing the structure without modifying the meaning. §1.3: A bill post must not be significantly or meaningfully modified after it has been passed by council. This is to avoid confusion on what rules are in affect/actually passed. Exception: If council modifies a bill before passing it the original post may be modified to reflect the updated version. §2 Enforcement §2.1: Any bills in breach of the listed terms shall be considered a breach of the law and a potentially bannable offense. §2.2: This bill shall go into affect upon passing.

Preface: Section XI article II of the constitution states "Users must alert a mod or the President when their alt account is in use." This was not overruled by the espionage act so they had to report to *both* minister of Library as well as either a mod or president, as it turns out, spys did not realize they must do the second part. As section XI violations are a high crime everyone who knows someone is a spy and knows this information about the law is obligated to report them. However, once this passes that shall be no longer as they will retroactively be made non criminal, and ideally this occurs before the spys are sentenced after being reported. which is almost certain. Article I: All spys who registered to the Minister of Library (who is now a position under the Wiki team and not *technically* a minister but still does all the same things and has minister in the title) And who did not register their alt with a mod or president, are now considered to not be criminals under unconstitutional alt use if that was done before the passage of this amendment.

Couldn't find anything forcing recusal, big part of this act is from the Pi lawsuit. \#1: If a justice member is presiding over a case where either the defendant or plaintiff is a member of their same political party, they must recuse themselves. Failure falls under IV, Art. V. Breaking the duty of neutrality. \#2: If requested during a trial by anyone in the court, a justice member must state any previous argument, friendship, or personal hatred with the defendant. A justice may refuse to give this information, but, in this circumstance, they must be recused. This is considered a motion of inquiry; this right must be told to those standing accused immediately. This must be stated clearly in the manner of *"I move for a formal Disclosure of Bias from Justice \[X\]; I request they state on the record any personal friendship, previous argument, or history of animosity toward the parties involved, or otherwise accept immediate recusal..".* It must be in this format; if not, then it can be ignored. If later evidence states a user lied about this information, they are to immediately be put for trial with a minimum of a week ban from all teen government servers. \#3: A court justice may never speak about a trial in private DMs (Including Discord, Reddit, or personal phones) with any member of the court staff (plaintiff, defendant, or witness). If they are found to do this, they must recuse, and if this becomes a repeated issue, the council is to vote on impeachment. (Repeated meaning 3 instances minimum). \#4: A judge cannot accept bribes of any kind; if they are offered it they must state that it occurred. If a justice accepts a bribe, they must immediately recuse themselves and will immediately go to a judicial trial on keeping their position and criminal charges. A charge is a minimum of a 3-day ban from all teen government servers. And the one responsible for giving the bribes is to continue to trial, and the charge of bribery is to be added. Or if they were the prosecution, they are to continue their trial, but immediately after the case are to be put to their own trial. \#: 4.5:Bribery involves the following: promising someone a political vote/a party recommendation if they vote in their favor, offering someone currency in the economy, and, if the briber is in a government position, granting someone a public advantage (council vote, nomination to a minister position, etc). As this is difficult to ensure, this can only occur with clear and convincing evidence (screenshots, an admission of guilt, etc). \#5: Anyone in a court can, at any moment BEFORE the trial, can make a public poll on whether a judge should be removed. This can only occur in the case a majority agrees on an outcome. This needs a 4/5 majority, as well as a minimum of 10 votes. The vote may only last 1 day maximum. If this is abused multiple times to attempt to remove a justice (3 or more times a day), the one using the polls may be stripped of this right; this can only occur via an Admin of the court, considered under spam and abuse of this right. In the unlikely case this would render all judges recused, then #6 is to occur. \#6: In the case all but 3 (or fewer) of the justices are recused, the justices are to hold a vote on someone to fill in the role as "Special temporary Justice". This vote shall occur after a minimum of 3 users have nominated themselves for this position, done via a Reddit post, and then the justices are to discuss who they believe would be best. They must also write 2 sentences minimum on why they made this choice. Failure to go through with any of these steps requires the process to entirely restart. The justices only have a maximum of 48 hours for this process to not harm the defendant's rights. \#6.5: Council may remove a "Special temporary Justice" at any time with a 2/3 majority vote. This vote cannot occur during the trial, but may occur immediately after the new candidate is decided. Council is required to give 1 sentence on why they want to remove a candidate. In this circumstance, the Justices are to restart their process. \#7: This new justice may be removed from the previous recusal rules, the same as a justice, but may not be put to a public vote on removal. This is simply a replacement for a recused seat; this new justice does not count as an actual justice or as an addition to the justices, and their power is limited 1 trial. \#8: After the trial, in the same section as the criminal records, the justices presiding and any "Special temporary Justice" are to be listed.

Random Yapping: Insurance companies are interesting and, as we can see in real life, can be untrustworthy. So, this act (or amendment if it is one) will fix that before it starts in the event of an insurance company. All these following amendments apply to insurance companies Article I: Terms must be clearly stated, for example if the company will only do insurance for a month, that can’t be in small text, it has to be clearly stated and shown. Article II: Insurance companies are required to pay their customer the amount promised should the insurance activate, (for example, they wreck their car) UNLESS Article III applies. Article III: If the customer is at fault for something, (for example, they damage their house to get insurance) the company can file a lawsuit for abusing the company, where if they win, they don’t have to pay, and the customer is subject to any penalties for damaging or destroying the thing(s) that were covered by insurance. The company does not have to file a lawsuit if the customer has already been found guilty for that. (for example, they were in a car crash and deemed guilty) Article IV: The customer can file a lawsuit against the company for not following the past three articles.

Preface: In the interest in making the voting system abundantly clear this amendment shall create a clear system for how abstaining is counted. This is naturally open for change by council where needed. Article I: For any vote which requires a simple majority (50%+1 shall be considered a simple majority) it shall require a simple majority of members who have not abstained. Article II: For all votes which require a supermajority (2/3 shall be considered a supermajority) it shall require a supermajority of members who have not abstained (exceptions for veto override which requires all council members due to said action not being legislation and to encourage council members to consider whether they should change their vote after a veto is rendered due to vetos often presenting new amendments and information to be considered, and to ensure this prop is a relative compromise) Article III: Any other vote threshold shall be considered by default to require that threshold of members who have not abstained unless explicitly stated otherwise Article IV: These definitions go into effect upon passage.

Article 1: The basic right to notice. 1: Any user who is under suspicion of a crime, is removed from a server before a trial, or is banned because of breaking a specific teen government law must be given a “Notice”. 2: This notice must be in the following format “You have been removed from teen government servers until trial, this is because of breaking {X}, for any questions contact the current plaintiff {Y}”. 3: If a user fails to receive a notice their rights will be considered infringed and they may argue for the banning to be unlawful, though this may be vetoed by the Council (⅔ vote) Article 2: 24 hour rule 1: A user with the abilities to time someone out may time anyone out for a time period under 24 hours without restriction as long as it is a lawful removal. 2: If the banning is longer than 24 hours article 1 must apply. 3: If the banning is under 24 hours then rule 1 is irrelevant and this renders it null. Article 3: Right to counsel 1: If a user requests a lawyer, they must receive a lawyer. 2: If a user requests a lawyer and none are available the suspect may waive their right for a speedy trial to receive a lawyer whenever one is available. 3: If no lawyers are capable of representing the user for a week after the trial was originally scheduled then this right is waived. 4: If a user requests a lawyer and none is provided, without rule 3, applying then the user may request a mistrial under this article. Article 4: Public Trials. 1: All trials must occur on a public server with any user available. 2: If a user is disruptive to the trial proceedings then they may be removed. 3: A prosecutor or defendant may request a private trial. This is only visible under the circumstance of doxing, harassment, or in the case information of this trial may harm one of the users. If this takes into place than no news article is legally allowed to cover the case. 4: Under the circumstance rule 3 takes into place, a gag order is given, preventing anyone from speaking about the contents of the proceedings. 5: If a user violates Article 4, section 4, they are to face trial, and will receive a minimum of a week suspension from all teen government servers if found guilty. 6: News agencies may report on the trial occurring, but may not leak information in it, restricted by the gag order as well. Article 5: Standard of proof. 1: For a judge to accept evidence, the evidence must be, beyond a reasonable doubt, true. Screenshot, admittance, or other confirmation the evidence is true. 2: Under the circumstance false information is added to the official evidence the trial is to be declared a mistrial. Article 6: Double jeopardy 1: A user cannot be considered for the same crime twice. (As long as it doesn’t fall under 2) 2: A user may be tried under the same crime under the following: The previous trial was considered a mistrial, the defendant filed an appeal, or the judge failed to abide by the Judicial recusal and ethics act. (This should have been considered a mistrial to begin with, yet, for clarification, it also falls under this law) Article 7: Habeas Corpus 1: A user who is currently banned from any teen government servers may formally request a Habeas Corpus. 2: Under the circumstances that a Habeas Corpus is requested, a member of the high court officials of the trial must give a formal explanation of the ban. 3: To avoid abuse of this system, a Habeas Corpus can only be filed once under every court case, but elaboration may be asked for (This can be denied) Article 8: Ex post facto 1: Every article stated in this may only affect trials that are filed after the day this passes (Should be March 18th, 2026, if it does pass) The entirety of this is meant for clarification and to grant rights to citizens New format, hopefully it makes sense.'20260318-1 • Rural Economic Protection Act • Overview: Farmers have been neglected for too long, and I am proposing a bill that would task the Economic Minister to protect and ensure a stable agricultural sector of the economy.Article I: Th...

This bill establishes that: * The party affected by another's crime or illegal/immoral act holds the sole responsibility of deciding whether or not to legally prosecute. * The affected party may include one or more individuals. * In the event that multiple persons are affected by another's crime or illegal/immoral act, 60% of those people*, at minimum, must reach a collective agreement to legally prosecute, otherwise the case cannot move forward without a unanimous vote by council to override the affected party's decision or lack thereof. * A member of council, the president, or the founder must privately and personally contact all members of the affected party and ask whether or not they wish to legally prosecute. * A member of council, the president, or the founder is responsible for investigating the situation and determining the identities of the individuals who belong to the affected party. * In the event that another's crime or illegal/immoral act directly affects 50% or more of the TeenGovernment population (determined by the most recently conducted census), a unanimous vote of council may decide to prosecute on behalf of the affected party and their personal wishes may be overridden by that authority. * The affected party's decision can be nullified by a unanimous vote of council, or a decision by the president or the founder in the event it is reasonable to suspect the party was/is under duress or inebriated when making their decision. * The affected party reserves the right to overturn their decision on their own volition within exaxtly 48 hours (2 days) of making it. * High crimes, crimes that disturb the peace, and rule 1 violations are exempt from this bill.

Author: u/ForsakenBuilder7061 Co-Sponsor: u/Bob-The15th Overview: This amendment would grand the Vice President the ability to break ties within the Council. This will ease legislation tied by abstaining members who stall the progress of law. Article I: The Vice President wields the power to break ties within the Council. \- For a simple majority vote, if exactly half of voting members are against the legislation whilst half of voting members in favor of the legislation (abstaining is considered a “non-voting member”), the Vice President shall determine if the legislation passes or fails. Article II: For a supermajority vote (2/3), if Council reaches the exact two-thirds majority mark on legislation that requires a supermajority, such as an amendment, the Vice President may decide whether the legislation reaches the supermajority or just a simple majority, failing the legislation. \- The Vice President shall not vote on impeachment proceedings by Council. \- If there is a clear personal conflict of interest on a legislation, the Vice President may only vote “Abstain.” \- If the Vice President is unable to break the tie, simple majority legislation fails, while supermajority legislation passes. (As it would currently occur in a tie) Article III: The Vice President may vote independently of the President. \- The Vice President is their own person, and may vote regardless of agenda. \- If legislation is presented which affects the Vice President, they may choose to vote against or abstain from voting.

The Ombudsman and Citizen Complaint Act In summary, it’s a way for citizens to complain about corrupt behavior anonymously, without fear of retribution from a political party. Article 1: Establishment of office 1.1: If this bill is passed the position of “Ombudsman” is established 1.1.5: The position of “Ombudsman”, for definition, is an official appointed to investigate individuals’ complaints against maladministration, especially that of public authorities. 1.2: an “Ombudsman” would have the following powers: 1, permission into every TeenGovernment related server (a related server being specified under the “Separation of unrelated servers act”). 2, permissions to all locked channels. (The “Ombudsman” can only be in the restricted channels in the circumstance a report has occurred to avoid intruding on the parties right to privacy, and any channel specifically for private affairs, unrelated to the investigation, does not need to be opened for them). 3, the power to investigate any user. Including the president, council members, justices, or regular citizens. 1.3: All information found by an “Ombudsman” may be used in court, but, must be admitted by a judge, yet, an “Ombudsman” shall always be considered a reliable source. Article 2: Appointment 2.1: The “Ombudsman” will have their own personal election. In this election the following should occur, 1, they shall make their want for the position public during election season, 2, they shall not hold a high-ranking political office (President, Minister, Justice.) for the last 30 days, nor may they hold one of these positions later in their term. 2.2: Because of the sheer power this role brings a user may not have a major criminal record and hold this position. (Involving rule 1, 8, or any NSFW content) Article 3: Removal and term limits. 3.1: They shall hold this role for 2 election seasons. 3.2: They may resign, yet, resignation means the 2nd place in the election must gain the role, in the circumstance only two users ran then the election must restart completely. 3.3: Inactivity of 2 weeks shall lead to an immediate removal and 3.2’s reelection rules shall occur. 3.4: Gross misconduct shall lead to an immediate removal and 3.2’s reelection rules shall occur, gross misconduct involving breaking a major harassment rule, breaking a bullying rule, breaking a NSFW rule, or general abuse of this position 3.5: If a user with this position uses the information provided by the private servers for political gain/blackmail, or doxing, they will be immediately put to trial, and shall be prohibited from holding the seat of President, council, or “Ombudsman”. 3.6: Refusal to do their government mandated position shall lead to removal and 3.2’s reelection rules shall occur. Likewise will occur if the investigation is inherently false (intentionally removing information, intentionally representing a user in a manner they shouldn’t be, or attempting to go against their obligation to be impartial. Article 4: Filing an investigation 4.1: All users will be given access to a new server specifically for the “Ombudsman” (On the discord) 4.2: This server shall be created by the “Ombudsman” the moment they are elected. 4.3: Any citizen may file and investigation for any reason and the “Ombudsman” has a legal requirement to investigate, failure to do so shall lead to 3.6 to occur. 4.4: If an “Ombudsman” shows bias in their investigation they will be removed under 3.6. 4.5: Submitting an investigation request shall occur in the server anonymously, this shall occur via a confessions bot. 4.6: Once a request occurs the “Ombudsman” has 24 hours to give a sign of recognition of the request, and it shall be looked at. Failure of this will lead to a warning, 3 warnings leading to removal and 3.2’s reelection rules occurring. 4.7: An exception to 4.6’s failure rules will occur if the “Ombudsman” has a valid excuse. A valid excuse involving personal issues, hospitalization, school, or generally any in real life excuse. This must be given publicly. 4.8: No user may “guess” who made the report, the identity of the investigation reporter is to be kept private permanently. 4.9: The “Ombudsman” has as long as they wish for an investigation, yet, the results must be justified for the time it took. (If it took them a week there must be a minimum of 3 paragraphs on this investigation). This is ignored in the circumstance the “Ombudsman” has multiple investigations going on, to avoid a user worrying about this taking too much of their personal time. Article 5: Publication of the investigation. 5.1: The “Ombudsman” will release the investigation into both the official “Ombudsman” server, the official TeenGovernment discord server, and the TeenGovernment reddit. 5.2: This publication must be entirely unbiased. Article 6: Power of investigation 6.1: Out of the previously stated access to all servers and all locked servers, the user also may ask a moderator for any logs of any time period. 6.2: A “Ombudsman” may ask for the history of an investigation target at any time. 6.3: If an “Ombudsman” publicly asks for users testimonies on an event all users must be pinged. 6.4: For 6.3 to occur safely the “Ombudsman” a specific ping shall be created in the official discord server made to ping those willing to answer questions. Article 7: Limits to investigations 7.1: No user may ask to investigate someone to find private information. 7.2: No user may ask to investigate someone to harm their political future (this is ignored in the circumstance that another justified reason was given.) 7.3: A “Ombudsman” who breaks the previously stated limitations will be immediately removed and the previously stated reelection system shall occur.

This is only under the case the information was valid, if misinformation occurred then 9.2 shall happen. 9.2: Any user may accuse the “Ombudsman” of spreading false information, and, with proof, they may put the “Ombudsman” to trial on whether they should keep their position or not. Article 10: Interaction with the Judiciary 10.1: As article 1.3 states, evidence produced by the “Ombudsman” may be used by any court, with approval by a judge. 10.2: An “Ombudsman” cannot specifically help one side in a trial, as they must remain neutral. Yet, a side may request an “Ombudsman” to investigate the case, and information found by them can be used in a trial, warranting the judge to approve it.

Hello, everyone. It is important to ensure that this sub remains firmly rooted in democratic principles and the rule of law as defined by the Constitution. Therefore, I am proposing an Anti-Authoritarian Act. If passed, no individual or party that engages in anti-democratic or authoritarian conduct shall be allowed to participate in governance within this subreddit. Article I: This act aims to protect democracy, accountability and the rule of law by preventing actions that undermine elections, representation and fair governance. Article II: Authoritarian conduct shall include but is not limited to: i)Attempting to circumvent the processes of elections, voting or council authority in ways not outlined by law. ii)Engaging in election manipulation, fraud or suppression. iii)Using positions of authority to unfairly influence outcomes or restrict fair participation. iv)Attempting to establish centralized (Centralized power shall be defined as the concentration of decision making authority in a single individual or party without adequate legal checks, transparency or accountability mechanisms) or unchecked control over governance. Article III: All cases under this act shall be subject to investigation and trial by the Court in accordance with constitutional guarantees of due process. If found guilty, penalties may include removal from office or bans depending on severity. Article IV: This act does not restrict freedom of speech, opinion or political belief as protected by the Constitution. It applies only to "actions" (not speech) that directly violate democratic functioning. All accused individuals retain the right to a fair and public trial. Edits: i) Defined "centralized" carefully. ii)Omitted disqualification from elections as a penalty. iii)The clause “attempting to undermine or bypass democratic processes” has been revised to “attempting to circumvent the processes of elections, voting or council authority in ways not outlined by law” to ensure clarity and prevent misinterpretation.

These texts are: * laws, bills, or acts, which are regular laws, that can be passed by a 50%+1 vote, * Motions, which are non-abiding texts expressing the majority opinion of the Council, * constitutional amendments, which are modification of this very text, that need at least 2/3 votes in favour, * no-confidence votes, to remove from office any high official who failed their duties or abused their powers. These need 50% plus 1 votes The voting options are as follows: Aye, Nay, and Abstain. Results are public * Article IV - The council shall only pass texts if a quorum (hereby defined by voting any of the three above options) of 50% of the elected representatives is reached. For a text to pass, the quorum must be reached and the Aye/Nay ratio must be equal or above what is defined by Section II, article III depending on the kind of text.

There are no requirements to run besides being the only candidate from your party if in a party and being a registered citizen. * Article II - The president is required to publicly veto any bill to cause a veto. President veto is ignored for a case of a supermajority vote in the council (which systematically applies for constitutional amendments). Vetos must occur within one week after a bill passes. Council can override a veto with a ⅔ vote. * Article III - The president is responsible for defending the subreddit. In case of crisis such as brigading, the council can pass a simple-majority motion giving mod powers to the president. These powers should be automatically removed after 72 hours, unless the crisis ends or the council passes a second motion, extending mod powers to 96 more hours, for a maximum total of 144 hours or 7 days. If the president or the council declares that the crisis has ended, mods' powers should be removed from the president. * Article IV - The president is NOT immune from the law. If the president is found guilty of any serious criminal offence (such as murder) or political crime (such as bribery), they are automatically removed from office. * Article V - The council may pass a motion of no-confidence against the president.

The order of succession for the office is the following: 1. A person designed by the president at the start of their term and approved by a simple majority vote in the Council (only applies for death, resignation or sickness), 2. An interim president elected by the council 3. An executive council managed by the council (if the council is unable to manage the executive council, the Supreme court shall take its place) 4. An interim president elected in an emergency election If the president is once again able to hold the office before the end of their term or that presidential elections happened, the interim president has to give up their power. The president cannot return through this means if impeached. * Article VII: The president also gains the authority to pass or overrule legislation during emergency states, but cannot change their own powers in the constitution, or the rules of the server. Council can strike down the president’s decision in a 50% +1 vote. * Article VIII: Runoff m voting will work the same way it does in most states at time of passage. * Article IX: The president may not hold a governmental position in another sub. This is considered treason. **Section V: Of the Court** The Court shall be the final decider on what happens if someone or something breaks the law or what should happen if the laws are not clear. It also protects the constitution and shall stop what is against the constitution. This section defines the powers and duties of the court. * Article I - The court shall be constituted of 5 elected judges. Judicial elections shall happen every other month on the last Saturday of the month from 00:00 GMT to 23:59 GMT. * Article II - There are 4 types of judiciary case, 1. Ban appeals: if a user is banned from the subreddit for 72 hours (3 days) or more, they can appeal to the supreme court if said user considers their sentence is not justified or more than what is needed. The moderator who banned said user (s) can explain themselves during the trial. 2. Lawsuits: if a user ever practices unlawful actions related to the subreddit, a witness or a victim can file a lawsuit against said user. The court will first vote if the defendant is innocent or not. If the defendant is found guilty, the court shall agree on the sentence of the culprit. 3. Constitutional clarifications: If a user finds the constitution too vague or finds an action taken by moderators, council, and/or the president unconstitutional, they can bring it to the supreme court. Any action deemed unconstitutional by the court should be reverted. 4. Law challenges. All citizens can challenge laws. This will be treated in the same way a lawsuit will, with the bill’s writer as the defendant * Article III - A court session lasts 36 hours. The first 24 hours are for debate between all involved parties, and the last 12 for voting. Multiple sessions can happen at once. Except for the final decision, cases of constitutional clarifications, or for incidents which could themselves start a lawsuit, everything which happens during a session is confidential, and no one shall reveal the details of the session except in aforementioned cases. * Article IV - Justices may hold membership in a party, but cannot hold any other office * Article V - If any judge is found to have practised illegal activities such as murder, corruption or breaking the duty of neutrality, they can be tried. In such a trial, they can't be part of the jury. If a court justice is found guilty of a political crime or serious criminal offence, they shall be removed from office. * Article VI - If a justice is removed from function, resigns from the office or dies, the remaining justices can decide to call for an election or not. If exactly or less than two thirds of the number of seats in the court are filled, an election must happen within 24 hours to fill the empty seats. * Article VII - Votes in the court are by simple majority. In case of a tie due to a missing or impeached judge, the debate and vote process restarts as soon as another judge joins the case or after the next (regular or special) judiciary election. * Article VII: The constitution and [The law ](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1m3iBf3xFkMAjSei3rXtkgI4kRi2e2NLMIaHcVkjp6Rg/edit?tab=t.eb0hytxccupo)is the supreme text of the supreme court. **Section VI: of the moderation** The moderation shall be preventing unlawful posts and comments on the subreddit. It has a duty of neutrality regarding this power. * Article I - New moderators are chosen amongst redditors by the moderation team. They do not need to hold elections, but they are allowed to do so * Article II - Moderators have the powers to remove unlawful posts and comments. Additional powers can be granted by an Admin. They also have the same rights as any other member, except when these rights contradict with their duty. * Article III - Moderators do not have a duty of neutrality in all but enforcement of their duties. Moderators have the right to publicly express their vote but cannot any RP office except in the judicial system. A moderator can resign or get promoted to admin to gain these rights back. * Article IV - Admins are special moderators with all rights and all duties. They are the one promoting and demoting moderators and are the one banning members in case of rule violation. * Article V - ToS and other rights and duties fully apply to moderators and admin unless stated otherwise in the constitution * Article VI - If it's uncovered that a moderator practised unjustified and/or mass ban/post removal, corruption or voluntarily giving rights, roles and/or access to restricted places to someone illegally, they shall be demoted by an admin and banned permanently. The permaban can be appealed in the court. If a moderator is inactive for at least a week without informing the admins of this prolonged absence, the admins have the right to demote the inactive moderator. If the moderation team considers that a moderator doesn't fill their duties correctly but has done nothing problematic enough to deserve a permaban, any moderator can launch a petition to demote a problematic moderator. * Article VII: Reddit ToS is considered sub law. **Section VI: of the laws** The laws shall define the rights, outlaw reprehensible actions, create duties, and set regulations. * Article I - A citizen of the subreddit is any unbanned redditor aged IRL between 13 and 19 years old and a member of the subreddit. * A special exception applies here for people banned from reddit but not from the sub. They are still citizens as long as they * Prove they are not an alt * Had at least 10 posts on r/TeenGovernment before their ban * Was given a voter code * Article II - Only unbanned citizens may participate in the community in any way. With the exception of if the council explicitly allows diplomatic contact, with the exception of the prison server. * Article III - All laws should be easily accessible, and thus, all laws, amendments and other legal texts must have a clearly flaired reddit post and, optionally, and ideally, a wiki page. The moderation teams of the subreddit and of the wiki are held to not remove any law and/or legal text unless it violates or contradicts the Reddit ToS, the subreddit rules and the constitution. A text of any kind which wasn't passed by the Council and signed by the president may still be kept on the wiki as long as it does not violate wiki and Miraheze guidelines and Terms of Service. * Article IV - All posts must be correctly flaired. Moderation discretion applies here. If a post is not properly flaired, the moderation can freely change its flair but not remove it unless it breaks any other rule. **Section VII: Of the Ministers** * Article I: An entity is to be established; the executive cabinet. It will comprise “departments” responsible for managing and enforcing laws regarding a specific subject assigned to individual departments. * Article II: Departments will be comprised of ‘ministers’ who are assigned specific duties. Citizens will be nominated for a position in the Cabinet by the president-elect and will be appointed after being confirmed by the council in a 4/7 majority vote. No citizen may be nominated while holding another governmental office, nor may they be nominated for more than one ministerial position. * After confirmation by the council, they will serve until the next cabinet is nominated and confirmed. Should the council deem a minister unfit in their duties via a 60% majority vote, they will be impeached and any staff appointed by their authority will be removed. The president must then nominate another citizen to take their place. * Article III: A department is to be established: the Department of Public Affairs. This department will be responsible for communicating with the general public. Two ministers will oversee the department: The Minister of the Press, responsible for informing citizens of the council’s decisions regarding recent propositions and enforcing transparency laws. There will also be a Minister of the Wiki, responsible for creating and maintaining the wiki. * Article IV: A department is to be established: the Department of Political Affairs. This department will be responsible for enforcing laws regarding political parties and the government. Two ministers will oversee the department: The Minister of Elections, responsible for overseeing the registration of candidates, creation of the ballot, and determining results. The Minister of the Census, responsible for determining the count of each party's membership, as defined in The minister of the Census will be responsible for Political Regulation, responsible for enforcing any laws concerning political parties and coalitions. Article V: Should a minister find their duties too burdensome, they may make a request to the council to expand their department and recruit aid. Should the council approve such a request, the minister may recruit a number of citizens decided by the council. Citizens recruited to aid a department will not be considered ministers. * Article VI: New departments and ministerial positions will be established in one of two ways: A bill proposing the creation of a new department or ministry passed by the council or the president and council agreeing to split an already existing department or ministerial position’s responsibilities. **Section VIII: Of the Census, Polls and Petitions** * Article I: The census is done by the minister of census within a specific census form or voter registration form. * Article II: The census is for the purpose of counting citizens of the subreddit, making sure all parties are above the stated member requirement in section X article II, and making sure inactive members and lurkers cannot vote in elections * Article III: The census will be conducted every month,, starting on March first of 2026.

They are permitted to use moderator powers, otherwise known as host powers, to ban people from the chat with an order from the president. If they refuse the orders of the president, whether that be to ban one from the chat without presidential permission, or refuse to ban someone who the president has ordered to ban, is subject to the decisions of moderators, the president, and council. * Article V: The actions on chat or platform outside of the SMP can lead to bans on r/TeenGovernment * Article VI: If the leader of a chat or platform outside of the SMP is found to be supporting these actions or harboring violators of any sub rule or law, they will be permabanned as long as they knew the participant was in violation of the rule. * Harboring is defined as: knowingly accepting a banned player in any group chat outside of the SMP. * Article VII: Partisan and Anti-Partisan chats and platforms outside of the SMP are allowed but must have unbiased in action and unbanned moderators. **Section X: Of the Parties** * Article I: A party may not have a population of over 35% of the sub’s total population.

This minister shall hold authority over the regulation of companies in a similar way to that the minister of political regulations holds.

The Minister's decisions on economic policy are able to be overridden by council, and the minister cannot overrule decisions by council, including economic directives for them to carry out.

This is so vital government services can continue during such times, and is intended as an emergency stop gap measure. * Article VIII: The Minister of political regulations is abolished and authorities are transferred to census due to rarely being needed and being closely related to the census results (Former minister of political regulations recommendation, due to reddit issues they resigned on discord) Section XXI: [https://www.reddit.com/r/TeenGovernment/comments/1rr13ns/another\_retroactive\_legalization\_to\_resolve/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=mweb3x&utm\_name=mweb3xcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button](https://www.reddit.com/r/TeenGovernment/comments/1rr13ns/another_retroactive_legalization_to_resolve/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button) Section XXII: New ballot size and council size determination process (credit to NotHim and Tricky for helping create) * Definitions: If not explicitly stated otherwise like in most cases a number is considered to be rounded down * Article I: The law stated here shall override previous laws for this determination process * Article II: The size of council shall be determined by the following math: For every 10 citizens one council member shall be added, if this number is not a whole number it is rounded, if it is even it is then rounded, a floor is set at 5 and a ceiling set at 13. * Article III: The number of candidates that can be voted on by a citizen (excluding the backup vote) is determined as follows: For every council member up to vote there are .7 votes on the ballot, the resulting number is rounded up to a whole number. * Article IV: If population reaches a level where if the ceiling would not be in place there would be 29 or more council members, a new ceiling shall be set at 17 (any further massive size growth would be solved by constitutional amendment. * Article V: Minister of Census shall release results of the Census on the 19th of each month and use the numbers to determine where the vote count and council size shall be set. LATER AMENDMENTS CLAUSE: ANY AMENDMENTS WHICH WERE NOT INCLUDED ARE LEGALLY CONSIDERED TO STILL BE IN EFFECT LATER AND IF NO CHANGES HERE WOULD ALTER THEM THEY ARE NOT REEFFECTED UNLESS STATED OTHERWISE, AMENDMENTS MADE LATER ON TAKE LEGAL PRIORITY OVER PREVIOUS ONES AS DO STANDARD LAWS TO EACH OTHER.

In the interest of quickly seeking any evidence of voter fraud a committee will be made. A person supported by council with the president’s approval will be given access to any needed servers and channels while the investigation occurs. They can delay the end of the special election if there is evidence found but it needs more investigation. They can choose to restart the election once a likely culprit whether person or organization is found. They cannot share unrelated information they find in these servers with the public on the matter. This will not be considered a high office so anyone can be an option. Once the ongoing special election and the investigation concludes this amendment will no longer be in effect. Anyone who has had clear intended access to voter codes may not be this position as they are a suspect. Magma and careless obviously may not be in this position. Non citizens may not hold this position. Members without Discord may not hold this position. Members running in the council elections may not hold this position. Members who have made public endorsements or campaigned in this election may not be in this position. If council cannot decide a person for this position in 5 hours of passage the president may appoint them as "I am not waiting all day these are special elections dammit". This position will be known as "Election investigator" If this is sloppy that's because we cannot afford to waste time here.

Introduction: This amendment ensures that council seats belong to individual citizens rather than parties, prevents abuse of power by the Council, establishes a fair and judicial impeachment process, enforces timely participation in voting and introduces a clear mechanism to resolve tied decisions. It further safeguards democracy by preventing the concentration of power within the Council. Article I Council seats belong to individual citizens, not parties. Members may join or leave parties freely without losing their seat. Article II This Article amends all prior constitutional provisions relating to the removal or impeachment of council members. In order to prevent misuse of power by other council members, any registered citizen may initiate impeachment by submitting a complaint to the Court stating valid reasons such as inactivity, abuse of power or violation of duties. The Court shall review the request and, if accepted, conduct a fair trial. Removal from office shall occur only upon a majority decision of the Court. Article III A council member loses their seat only by resignation, death or removal through impeachment as decided by the Court. Article IV Vacant seats shall be filled through by-elections/special elections held within 72 hours. The elected individual shall serve the remainder of the term. Article V The Council has no authority to impeach or remove its own members, as granting such power would create a conflict of interest and allow members to remove political opponents or dissenting voices, undermining fair representation and democratic integrity. Article VI Council members must vote within 36 hours of a proposal. Failure to do so may be treated as inactivity. Article VII In case of a tie, the Vice President must cast the deciding vote within 24 hours or the proposal fails.

***DISCLAIMER*** : This is not related to Council Accountability and Representation Amendment proposed by ***CONTEXT*** : This act is aimed for strengthening grassroot democracy in the sub. As of my observations the council votings over a bill, as displayed by the transparency posts, doesn't provide much subject matter over the actual opinion of the council members on the bill, nor is there a way a citizen can discuss or negotiate their bill with the council. This act aims to provide a solution to the same. ***ARTICLE 1. COUNCIL STATEMENT*** ***1.1*** If a bill proposed by a citizen is rejected, but there is not clear explanation available justifying the rejection, the original proposer can ask the council for providing a statement on the reasons rejection. ***1.2*** Only original proposer can ask for statement over their bills ***1.3*** In order to request a statement, the proposer should make a dedicated post for the same. ***1.4*** The Statement can be provided by anyone of the council members through a comment on the request post if explanation is concise or short. ***1.5*** If the council wants to provide a detailed overview they should make a separate post for providing the statement. This post should also be made by any one of the council members. ***1.6*** Posts by proposers demanding statement from council should have a newly created post flair - Clarification from council. ***ARTICLE 2. BILL NEGOTIATION*** ***2.1*** If the council observes that the bill is eligible to be passed if certain articles/sections of a bill are deleted/added/modified, they should clarify these bill negotiations under their "statement" over the bill(statement meaning the same as in article 1) ***2.2*** If the proposer agrees with the article deletion/addition/modification proposed by the council, then he can do the same and post the refined bill again, which the council is obliged to pass after ensuring the article negotiations are met. ***Article 3.*** This act could be exercised only for bills made after passing of the act. (Thanks to u/SrijitDas2010 for suggesting article 1.6)

NOTE: This is very likely to change as time goes on. Article I) A separate server is to be made designed to promote healthy reformation of TeenGovernment. This server is to be run by a registered citizen of TG and foster an organization, known as the reform committee, which aims to work with all branches of government and parties/coalitions. Article II) The reform committee will be appointed through consultation with the judiciary and president, as opposed to elections to prevent overwhelming power imbalances and censorship of criticism. Article III) Those who fulfill a seat in council, president, vice president, or judiciary are not allowed to fill a seat on the reform committee (RC) Though, all citizens of TG are welcome to share their voice. Article IV) A member of the reform committee may be impeached by a 2/3 vote of the rest of the committee. A member may only be impeached if they are found to not be performing their duties properly. This may include censorship of speech, rewrites of criticism, dismissal of criticism, harassment, or discrimination by means of gender, sex, sexuality, race, ethnicity, nationality, or age. Impeachment forbids a citizen from ever holding a position on the reform committee ever again. Article V) If a member is to drop down from their duty, the appointment of a new member shall follow the same guidelines as normal. They should be aware, their term may not fit the entire length. Article VI) The committee may have no more than 8 members and no less than 3. Every month the committee will be swapped out. A TG citizen may only serve two consecutive terms, but may have infinite terms. Article VII) Appointed members must recognize the committee exists for social reasons ONLY. The committee is not allowed to endorse any political parties or candidates. The UNITY organization serves one purpose, to reform the community and advance the rights of the people. They must complete an oath to comply with these standards. Failure to so will result in suspension if the judiciary and 2/3 committee finds one to be guilty. Article VIII) The reform committee will be refreshed every month by appointment. Article VIIII) Mods that are SEPARATE from the RC must not hold any position in government. They must complete an oath to not censor criticism or reform, and stop any person who spreads hate speech. (discrimination, insults, name calling, harassment) Article X) The UNITY Organization will exist as a separate discord server than the TG one. This is to maintain a safe, healthy space. Discord AND reddit members are welcome to join.

Considering the current situation, I wish to propose an act to separate the politics of the sub from the people. Some of these probably already exist as part of the existing laws, but I'll still be reiterating them here: Article 1: No individual may use a protest as an excuse for harassing a person. Article 1.1: If there is a protest against the Government, it must be strictly roleplay, and this must be clearly mentioned by the protestor. This too is not grounds for harassment. Article 1.1 (a): This mention must be in one of their first three posts or comments relating to the protest. Failure would make the citizen liable to legal proceedings. Article 1.2: If anyone outright bullies a citizen **outside** of roleplay and the citizen reports them with evidence, they will be subject to a fair trial under criminal law. \--------- Article 2: No person in power shall be impeached or reprimanded for "inactivity" if the reason for inactivity is a personal emergency and if the period of inactivity is less than 5 days. Article 2.1: Impeached council members can sue the council if they are not given a proper reason for the impeachment within 24 hours. \--------- Article 3: There shall be no pressure put on people in positions of power outside of roleplay. \--------- Article 4: The passed map will be brought into effect immediately an attempt to separate the subreddit from the real world. \---------
