Editing President of Sanctaria (section)

===Reference of bills to the people===
If requested to do so by a petition signed by a majority of the membership of the Senate, and one-third of the membership of the House, the President may decline to sign into law a bill (other than a bill to amend the constitution) he/she considers to be of great "national importance" until it has been approved by either the people in a referendum or the House reassembling after a general election, held within eighteen months. This power has never been used, and no such petition has been invoked.
