The Anti-Un-Renunciation Amendment
WHEREAS a Talossan citizen who renounces his or her citizenship currently has 24 hours after the said renunciation is acknowledged by the Secretary of State before the citizenship is officially lost, and
WHEREAS this period of time has been the cause of much agony for the citizens of the Kingdom, either in panicked acts to talk the renouncing citizen out of their decision, and/or in watching the citizen change his or her mind repeatedly about such a serious step, and
WHEREAS Talossan citizenship is the best thing money cannot buy, and
WHEREAS to renounce such a thing is a serious matter and should be given serious consideration long before posting about it, and
WHEREAS especially given legislation that will make the re-entry of former citizens less of an ordeal, providing that former citizens are always eligible to return to the Kingdom should they choose to re-apply for citizenship, now
THEREFORE the Ziu hereby proposes to amend the Organic Law of the Kingdom of Talossa by means of the following resolution, and recommends that the said amendment be ratified by referendum of the electorate and thereupon promulgated by His Majesty the King:
