ballot referendum bill
TRANSCRIPT
1A BILL
To require passage of Bill ____ through use of ballot referendum.
1 Whereas governments, according to the Declaration of
2 Independence, derive their just powers only from the
3 consent of the governed;
4 Whereas our founding fathers thus, in creating the United
5 States, sought to represent the will of the people;
6 Whereas prominent legislation should represent the will of
7 the people and the best way to ensure this is by determining
8 such legislation via popular vote;
9 Whereas legislation passed by popular vote cannot defensibly
10 be overturned or declared un-Constitutional, making it
11 arguably more valid than that passed by any other form, more
12 more likely to stand the test of time, and making a judge or
13 any other official which seeks to remove it a tyrannical, un-
14 democratic dictator deserving of infamy;
15 Whereas advances in voting technology eliminate any previous
16 concerns about mob rule as pertaining to democracy, since
17 democracy can now be calmly performed through vote on a
18 vast scale without necessity of mobs, and allowing votes to be
19 taken without peer pressure or emotionally-charged
20 environments;
21
22 Be it enacted by the people of the State of Nebraska,
21 1) That Bill ____ shall be placed upon the ballot for the next available
2 election to be voted on by the citizens of Nebraska, which vote if by a
3 simple majority of at least 50%, shall guarantee its passage.
