The National Assembly, without intending anything prejudicial to Jews, on whose status it reserves the right to pronounce, and in order that no reasons for exclusion, other than those deriving from constitutional decrees, may be opposed to the eligibility of any citizen, has decreed as follows: 1st, Non-Catholics who have fulfilled all the requirements prescribed in preceding decrees of the National Assembly for electors and eligibility may be elected to all governmental offices, without exception. 2nd, Non-Catholics, like other citizens, are eligible to all civil and military positions. |
