75% is good. We have no need to lower the percentages, considering security removals and denials are supposed to be difficult to overturn. The idea is not for them to be able to pass easily.

Im still against this. That would take the VD's responsibility(apart from being active, supporting the Delegate and being leader of the CSS) away. What's the VD going to do if this is approved? Be the Delegate's personal secretary?

And Im sure CSS meetings are not noticeable.

CSS meetings are supposed to be in secret. Otherwise, the entire idea of the CSS as a security body is defeated.

3.  The Citizenship Council will decide whether to admit or deny the application.  In the event that an applicant is denied the reason for denial must be disclosed by the Citizenship Council. The applicant may appeal their denial to the Assembly which may reverse the denial by a 66% majority vote in favor.
4. If a Citizen no longer has a resident nation their citizenship will be removed by the Citizenship Council during the next monthly check.
5.  The Cabinet may remove Citizenship from a nation who is found to be a Security Threat, preferably upon the recommendation of the Committee for State Security.  Citizens removed for being a Security Threat may appeal their removal to the Assembly which may reverse the removal by a 66% majority vote in favor.
6.  The CSS may, on behalf of the Citizenship Council, undertake an investigation into nations who have been denied citizenship or declared a security risk and report their finding to the Assembly.
7.  Citizens will be removed for not accumulating 2 posts per month.  The Citizenship Council will perform an activity check during the first week of each month and determine who did not meet the activity requirement in the previous calendar month.  Citizens may be awarded a Leave of Absence from the Citizenship Council in which case this requirement will be lifted for the duration of the leave.

Section 3 - Citizenship Council

1.  The Citizenship Council will be comprised of 3 members.
2.  1 member will be appointed by the Delegate, 1 member from the Committee for State Security will be appointed by said Committee, and 1 will be a member of the Forum Administration Staff appointed by said Administration Staff.  All members must be approved by a 66% majority vote of the Assembly in favor.
3.  Members of the Citizenship Council serve for a one year period unless they resign, are recalled, and/or they no longer hold Citizenship. Each year members of the Council may be changed following the appointment process as outlined.
4.  The Citizenship Council is responsible for maintaining a list of all Citizens.

Section 1 - Assembly and Powers of the Assembly
1. The Assembly is comprised of all Citizens of The Coalition.
2. The Assembly shall constitute the sole legislative body in The Coalition.
3. The Assembly is responsible for the drafting and discussion of General Laws, and Amendments to the Charter and Code of Laws.
4. The Assembly may pass and amend a Law with a vote resulting in 50% + 1 in favor.
5. The Assembly may amend the Charter with a vote resulting in a 75% majority in favor.
6. The Assembly has the sole power to declare a state of war exists with another region or organization.
7. The Assembly has the sole power to pass a treaty with another region or organization.
8. The Assembly may override the denial or Cabinet removal of citizenship upon the affected nation appealing and a vote resulting in a 66% majority in favor.
9. Declarations of War and Treaties require a 60% majority in favor to be enacted or repealed.
10. Proposed legislation may be moved to a vote by the Chair of the Assembly after a Motion and a Second to vote is lodged.
11. The voting period will last three days for all General Laws and five days for Amendments to the Charter.

I'd like to motion this draft to a vote.  This includes changing the percentage in the Assembly Powers section.

At least you could have tried to compromise with 70%. This is just blatantly ignoring people and discussions in this thread to push something through which is the problem in the first place.

The only other percentage we discussed in this thread was 60% which was shot down rather quickly. Kris and you are the only people shouting about the percentage. There is support for the proposal as is. I'd like to see where it turns out before raising the percentage to yet another odd amount.

There is support for the proposal for a Citizenship Council. Voting percentages have their own thread, where they should stay. Using this thread as a second way of pushing for voting percentages is not the way to go.

For what it's worth, Kris and Escade aren't the only ones who don't like the voting changes.
