Tarik ibn Ziad 4 Ohio: USWP Incumbent

Day 546, 09:03 • Published in USA USA • by Tarik Ibn Ziad


Dear People of the Great State of Ohio,

I humbly come before you requesting your support in the upcoming congressional race. I was honored by the mandate you provided me when you elected me to my first term. I strove to be an active participant in congress, and my congressional colleagues have recognized my dedication to you. I am honored by their kind words, and hope to continue working on your behalf to ensure Ohio provides an actively engaged Senator who focuses on what is best for you and the individual citizens of the eUSA.

Campaign Motto: Getting Things Done

I believe our primary role in congress is to help enrich the game experience for all of our citizens. Be it through military funding, M*A*S*H*, or helping with foreign policy, we modify the milieu that defines this virtual reality. But, to effectively represent you and your needs, we must get things done. This entails a diligent focus on the work at hand, and desire to recognize the best possible solution for our nation. Along those lines, I believe every Senator is required to consider the facts of every proposal, even at the expense of their own ideology. We must focus on the facts, on what makes sense, and come to conclusions and policies that are the best for a nation and our collective goal. This entails setting aside partisanship, and working together to form balanced policy based upon consensus founded on facts. I have advocated this ideal during my first term, and strove each day to fulfill this obligation to the people of the eUSA.

Here is a question that people may want answere😛 What are a few things you have accomplished during your first term?

-Vocally supported the military and their importance to our nation.

-Worked with MilCom Chair, Senator Joshua Hoss, in developing QMG contracts to ensure accountability for military funds.

-Pushed and worked on streamlined and recurrent funding for our Weapons Stockpiling Companies.

- Working on further characterizing and creating protocols and policies that further define the role and purpose of our Weapons Stockpiles.

-Actively debated many issues in congress, including Q5 Hospital Placement, Foreign Affairs topics, M*A*S*H*, and Iron Import Taxes.

- Pushed for more active participation of Senators, and have called, on numerous occasions, for Senators to read the discussions points and consider both sides of the argument on all policy propositions before voting in game.

Donations: 6th Highest donor to M*A*S*H*
