Azul à vaes cünpartizaes!

As per the party Consituziun (Article III, Section A), the Union of Free Reformists will be holding its regularly-scheduled Party Convention for the 63rd Cosă during the third Clark, which is scheduled for March. The Comità Esecutorxheu hereby notifies all URL members of our desire that they attend.

TENTATIVE AGENDA:
  • Opening Remarks
  • Debate on the URL Constitution and Platform -- current text of each can be found on the URL wiki article
  • Finalization of the Democracy Agenda
  • Election of the URL candidate for Seneschal for the 64th Cosă elections
  • Election of the next Comità Esecutorxheu (Executive Committee). (Atatürk, Belacostă, Fiovă, and Vuode each have at least three members and are eligible to elect Provincial Chairs to the Comità.)
  • Closing remarks

We hope to see you there!

To summarize the different suggestions of legislation we've had for the Democracy Agenda, I've put together the following list. Going forward, the Party will work toward final decisions where a given issue may have multiple viable paths forward, or decide if we believe something should be included in the final Agenda at all:

  • Making the Cosa Smaller: 20 seats as per Sir Marcel's bill. Current Status: Clark Vote - Forecast Uncertain

  • Upper House Reform: The "Upper House of Review Amendment", which despite some disinformation to the contrary, does not establish unicameralism, actually removes the ability of the Senate to perpetually block standard legislation. Current Status: Clark Vote - Forecasted Government Blockade

  • Voting Method Reform: Sir Marcel has suggested Proportional Approval Voting before. For my part, I prefer panachage, but I'm interested in further discussion at any rate.

  • Public Ballot Reform: Do we want to address the possibility of removing the public ballot? I think a more moderate position could be found where votes using the thread are only publicized after polling closes, but that's just my two bence, and depends on Witt's technical abilities.

  • Party List Reform: I have an act drafted (coming soon to a Hopper near you) that would make it so off-list citizens can only receive seats if no listed candidates are eligible to receive them. Are we in favor of something like that?

  • Party List Reform 2: Should we propose legislation requiring citizens to consent to appearing on a party list?

  • Royal Veto Reform: Miestra has proposed some changes to the royal veto, including possibly eliminating it for Organic amendments in favor of the referendum as the "people's veto". It would also include an analogous procedure to the "Irish advisory opinion" she has described elsewhere. Thoughts?

  • Repeal Org.XII.4: See above for Miestra's explanation.

  • Parliamentary Reform: Should we look at adding any legal structure to the offices of Tuischac'h and Mencei? The esteemed Tuischac'h's opinion is useful here.

Now that the Royal Talossan Naval Relief Corps (RTNRC) is up and running with a royal patronage I am switching my donation appeal to the RTNRC. It is an honor to support this honorable venture by my Talossan pal, Sir Iason.

The donation appeal ends on February 10, 2026 with the first $100 raised being matched by me.
