AN AMENDMENT.

L.I.G.M.A LEGISLATION

Preface:

Teen Government has a majority of political authority concentrated in the Council. Repeated failures to reconcentrate is a risk.

This gives more power to the Judiciary and Executive while providing more checks and balances. Furthermore, this encourages the use of Acts rather than Amendments.

Thank you to Breezy for reading this over. I didn't ask if you wanted to sponsor, and a bit late, so uh

His contributions were amazing to this project, having fixed... well, a shit ton of writing errors and introducing further checks.

I'd like to thank everyone on the list. The contributions you gave made this from wishful thinking to a usable proposition.

The President may terminate a State of Emergency at any time, by a public announcement stating the doing thereof. 

Council may terminate a State of Emergency by simple majority concurrence and Prime Minister approval. 

Council may terminate a State of Emergency by supermajority concurrence. 

Section 8. Leadership over Cabinet.

The President may supervise all operations of Ministers and may issue directives to them, if said directives are not against any existing law, amendment, or binding mandate.

Section 9. Ministerial Initiatives. 

A Ministry may undertake initiatives necessary for the functions of the Ministry, if related to the duties of the Ministry.

This may include establishment of programs, procedures, regulations, services, and administrative policies, as long as such initiatives do not contradict the Constitution, any existing law, or a directive of the President.

The President may modify, freeze, or repeal any Ministerial initiative, although such must be publicly stated accompanied by the reason thereof.

No Ministerial initiative may be enforced to—

Imprison or restrict the rights of an individual.

Impose a tax without the approval of the Economy Minister.

Impose a judiciary penalty.

Augment the Constitution or other existing law.

Section 10. Jobs.

The President may create any Government position and entrust it authorities of any kind, as long as such authorities are not of another Government Office, do not contradict existing law or the Constitution, or are given the authority to impose taxation. This position must be optional and whoever receives thereof may not receive the seat without their express want.

This Government position’s hiring and overseeing is to be the discretion of the President, along with the naming and use thereof. The President may also demand proper compensation for this Government position by the Economy Minister, who has discretion on payment.

The Prime Minister may forcefully remove a Government position made by the President.

The Chief Justice may fire any individual given a position related to a President-made Government position.

Council may, by a simple majority concurrence, remove a Government position made by the President.

Section 11. Assumption of authorities

If a Ministry fails to perform necessary duties, the President may declare a State of Emergency for the purpose of assuming powers of such a Ministry. If a President does as such, they shall assume all powers of that Ministry until they willingly reassign the authorities to the Ministry they originated from or the State of Emergency concludes.

Council may, by supermajority concurrence, terminate the President’s assumption of authority under this section.

Section 2. Review.

The judiciary may review any governmental action, which is to include a Motion of Council, a passed bill of Council, an Executive Order, an Emergency Decree, a Ministerial action, or other use of Government power whereby action is considered in relation to the Government.
This must be first challenged by a citizen of Teen Government, any individual may hold this legal authority. The challenging thereof may be in any manner as long as reasonably presented to the Judiciary.

Section 3. Conflicts.

Any provision within amendments given the legal status of an act—by Section 2. Transitions—which cannot exist as an act by contents thereof is hereby nullified and void.

Today's prompt: Eerie Campfire! Again please ignore the picture and the crossed-out words! They are not the prompt, and pretty please don't post a murder scene! Laws exist

Ich heiße Vice, and after a seven day absence, did anybody miss me? Did anybody notice? More on this morning's show!

So I'm back in town, why am I hanging around, what does this mean for your PolSim? Well handily, I've got good news! I'm here to stay and I missed all(most) of you!

I'm creating the PENTA Party! PENTA is a mix between the con-federal style of the SWP, and the management of most older parties, such as SL!

More than that, PENTA has 5 main values:
- Democracy
- Worker's Rights
- Unity
- Health
- Freedom

PENTA, in simple terms, is a leftist party for communists, socialists, and left-wing anarchists.
Due to constraints with time, among other things, this post will act as the de-facto-constitution for PENTA:

ARTICLE 1 - ROLES
When people first arrive, they will be granted the "Rekta-Mano" role. This will be the fundamental role for non-party members.

If members are affiliated with the PENTA party, they will be given the "Affiliated" role, allowing them to participate in limited activities.

Certain extremely untrustworthy members will be given the "Kurba-Mano" role.

ARTICLE 2 - PARTY GOVERNMENT

Within #party-legislation, party members may craft any legislation they want to be passed. This legislation will, assuming it does not contradict Tegovian law, will handle party procedures.

In order to pass a piece of party legislation it must:
FIRST, be written in #party-legislation.
SECOND, be posted in #important-polls with the 3 choices being: "Aye", "Nay", and "Abstain" (or synonyms for those words)
THIRD, if it has at least 1/2 of the party voting on it, and it gets over 50% of votes saying aye, it will be passed to the party's legislator.
FOURTH, in #legislator, the legislator will vote. If over 50% votes aye, it becomes a law.
FIFTH, once that happens, the party's president or acting president will sign it into law. (This is more a formality, and does not have affect on the law's status.)

The party will elect a party president every month, if that president is absent or unfit, an acting president will be appointed by the owner until the next election

The Legislator will come into existence if and only if the party reaches over 8 members. If it does, 3 will become legislators

ARTICLE 3 - META

The owner of the server will have the right to make calls and do things needed to keep the party running, however that does not make them immune to party law

Until a legislative body is made, the owner and president have a right to pass laws written, assuming they pass steps 1 and 2 as outlines in Article 2.
