Bill of Rights Proposed
Luthori Press Update
Following a party meeting today, the Social Equality Party, typically regarded to as the Socialist Party of the Holy Luthori Empire, released a string of amendments to the Constitution, all of which are designed to give broader civil rights and liberties to the people of the Luthori Empire. Nathaniel Brasseux, the Leader of the Party, commented on the matter, "We strongly believe, as we always have, that society cannot continue to work if the people feel that they are restricted from living their lives as they see fit, and with these amendments, our party would like to see people less afraid from the Establishment."
According to the party, they believe that they will gain unanimous support in their efforts.
Universal Declaration of Human Rights Adopted
Information provided by the Holy Imperial Diet
With the Liberal Democratic Party's support, the UDHR has passed in the Luthori Holy Imperial Diet. As recognized by parties giving their consent to the legislation, the need for greater freedom is ever strong, considering oppressive measures that have made their way into government over the last several decades. The Constitutional Imperial Party and the Luthori Republican Party dissented, finding no constitutional basis for the revisions.
