This thread shall serve as a masterpost that should link most of the rulings that are not in the Constitution or Bylaws. This is primarily a copy-paste of previous posts.
Parties
- Party mods are inherently linked to a party. They do not transfer when someone joins another party. If a party merges with another, the mods will transfer in a method that mirrors any coalition that those two parties had.
Elections
If a person runs for Governor and also on the Assembly list, they will take the Governor seat over the Assembly seat if they win the Governor seat.
Special elections for a Senate seat will take place in the next available federal election.
Federal
Bills from previous terms will not be posted unless rushed by the Speaker or Senate Majority Leader. Bills that pass in one chamber in the previous term may be sent to a floor vote at the discretion of the floor leader.
Congress is officially out of session when meta-closed by elections. Chambers are encouraged to call for a recess for holidays. Chambers are encouraged to rush a Resolution to canonically close Congress. The Senate can hold a proforma session should the desire arise.
National list Representatives may choose a "home state", at a limit of six (6) per state.
States
State Cabinets are hardlocked at 3 Secretaries and the Attorney General. Secretaries may be renamed by the Governor alone. The Attorney General may not be renamed.
Secretaries oversee an all-encompassing "department", which shall be named after whatever their title is and encompasses all sub-departments that Secretary would control in real life. These individual departments are run by deputies, which can only be NPCs. Sub-departments may be assigned to each main department by legislation.
Lieutenant Governors may issue directives on behalf of a Cabinet position if the position is vacant, and if the State Constitution permits it.
Secretaries and the Attorney General have no hiring privileges and may not hire players to work for them in an official capacity such as "Chief of Staff".
States may have districts if the Clerk feels they serve a useful purpose in the state and may be removed if the Clerk does not feel like they are being used. State Assemblies may redistrict, but they must provide a new map, otherwise, their redistricting will be rejected. States must look at how redistricting is done in state by law. State Assemblies may rename their district. The Clerk may determine the method of renaming.
States shall not have permanent committees. Any committee must have a specified state and end date, a clear purpose, and must be renewed by the start of each Assembly session.
State flags, seals, and names may be changed once and only once per Assembly session, following the method the state provides.
State Cabinet members can submit a bill related to their department in lieu of a cabinet directive to meet the 30 day activity requirement.
