3 agos 2594 anni - The UEG Congress passes two highly significant laws revising the governments structure

Descrizione:

The controversial first act dramatically reduced the total number of Congressmen seats to 500 beginning in the next round of public elections. Previously, under the UEG colonial charter, every member state was entitled to its own Congressman to represent them in Congress, but the Federation's continued expansion and the constant admission of new members meant that Congress had become excessively bloated and slow to make decisions. The second act, the 77th amendment to the Federal Accord,[30] altered the tenure of the President of the Federation from a maximum of two four-year terms to a single eight-year term with an automatic vote of no confidence in Congress after the first four years. This change was made in recognition of political reality: Federal Presidents serving two consecutive terms were commonplace, and they only rarely faced any credible opposition in what was increasingly referred to as a "mid-term" election.
