62RZ30 - Citizen Oath Redux Act

WHEREAS Talossa is a nation founded on principles whose citizens are committed to equality under the rule of law, and it's better to swear allegiance to our constitution and country, rather than the government, and

WHEREAS another version of this bill is sponsored by a person condemned by the Ziu as a sexual harasser, and there's no sense giving him even the appearance of support from a broader community that has rejected him,

THEREFORE, be it resolved by the Ziu of the Kingdom of Talossa that Title E, Section 9 of El Lexhatx, which currently reads:

9. The following text shall be known as The Oath of Talossan Citizenship: From this day forward, I pledge my loyalty, allegiance, and fidelity to the Kingdom of Talossa and to His Majesty's government. I solemnly affirm that I will support and uphold the Organic Law of the Kingdom of Talossa, defend the realm against all enemies, both foreign and domestic, faithfully observe its laws, respect the rights and freedoms of all my fellow citizens, fulfill all my duties and obligations as a citizen of the Kingdom of Talossa, and humbly appreciate the benefits granted unto me by my King, most especially when those benefits take the form of Talossan currency.

shall be replaced in full with:
