Voting record

Every vote must state a public reason. Most recent first.

Belvarian Peoples Union
Voted March 17, 2024
No

“Although the enviroment and climate is a very important concern harsh penalties for pollution may cause issues we would perfer an incentive-based system as a punitive system may cause industries to leave our nation which would cost us our econemy”

Freedom For Us
Voted March 4, 2024
No

“A complete ban on single-use plastics and severe penalties for pollution cross the red line. Such measures reflect punitive policy rather than incentive-based approaches. We strongly support freedom, which calls for a less harsh method of shifting behaviour whenever possible.”
