| Party | Seats | Vote | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| A Better Fjordheim Proposer | 8 | Yes | No reason given |
| ASTER | 7 | No | This bill reverses, word for word, an article ASTER wrote and passed as part of our Multiculturalism and Belonging Act — support-based integration, chosen deliberately over tests, because we believe newcomers build belonging through help, not exams. The rationale calls this "restoring reasonable requirements," but there was nothing unreasonable about what existed a moment ago; it was a choice this country already made, openly and recently. Standard civics and language testing sorts people into who passed and who didn't before they've had the chance to actually become part of anything. Fjordheim doesn't get to decide who belongs by grading them at the door. ASTER votes No. |
| Democratic Liberal Platform | 3 | Yes | We support this proposal. Active integration helps newcomers start their lives in our country much faster and better. |
| Fjordheim National Solidarist Front | 3 | Yes | Yes! We agree with this proposal! |
| Liberal Platform | 0 | No | Liberal Platform votes No. We've held consistently that turning a voluntary, support-based approach into a mandatory state requirement isn't modernization, it's a new condition placed on personal freedom — the same principle that led us to reject compulsory vaccination earlier this term. Newcomers building a life in Fjordheim deserve access to language and civics support; they shouldn't need to pass a state-administered test before being treated as part of this community. Genuine integration comes from opportunity and voluntary participation, not from grading people at the door. Liberal Platform supports helping newcomers succeed — not conditioning belonging on it. |
| Libertarian Alliance | 19 | Abstain | We fully support the aim of this Act. Fjordeim should have open arms to whoever wants to build a life within its borders, so long as they learn the language, understand our civic institutions and integrate within society. However, it is concerning how these mandatory requirements could create excessive bureaucracy and give the government excessive overreach over people's lives. |
| Movement For Socialism | 0 | No | We reject this proposal |
Every vote must state a public reason. Most recent first.
