Amendment to the Europe Day Act
-
The Union of Duxburian Dominions also opposes Clause IV. Individual groups, entities, and industries need to have the flexibility to decide how or whether to observe the holiday. There are also places out there like the City of Azrekko, where EU policies have devastated their economy and created catastrophic unemployment. Forcing them to not work to celebrate the EU would be pouring salt into an open wound. Everyone's EU experience varies, it has not been a smooth ride for all. It's easy to shut yourself in a positive feedback bubble and ignore or become oblivious to the consequences of the laws that we pass, but these are real people and they aren't going away.
