Meh, I don't like section 5 either, or Democracy day, or that we can't change the motto without a super majority, or any of it without a super majority. I'll post edits later today.

Opposed wholeheartedly to this act as it just restricts citizens and doesn't really add anything to the region.

Also: re: holidays, honoring every Delegate? Seems a little cultish when we instead could have a holiday act with a "Delegate Day".
 
against until the following is corrected/changed:

section 1 title has a typo​
not a fan of 2.1​
not a fan of 2.4​
​
grammar in 3.1 is broken​
grammar in 3.1a is broken​
grammar in 3.1b is broken​
​
grammar in 3.2 is broken​
​
grammar in 4.1 is broken​
​
grammar in 4.2 is broken​
​
grammar in 4.3a is broken​

The motto of Lazarus was adopted a few years ago by a forum vote. So, it is a part of our culture, whether or not you are a fan.
 
I think this act is largely unnecessary. These cultural traditions cannot established by law, but instead establish themselves by custom.
Section 2.2. and 2.3. I can fully agree with, but consider the rest unnecesary to put into legislation.

Section 4 is worthy of discussion, but could be replaced by creating an official Lazarene medal that is bestowed upon exemplary citizens.

I completely agree with you. This act is largely unnecessary.
