Join the new world

Citizens of New Jersey, I ask for you vote of confidence today. Let me go through the run down of what I have accomplished and why you should re-elect me to Congress. Before I do that, I want to again thank the AAP for allowing me to run on their ticket as well as allowing all Federalist candidates to run on their ticket.

======================================== ===
Experience You Can Trust
As a Congresswoman, I bring many qualifications to the table which makes me familiar with all aspects of the game. They include.
2 time Congresswoman
Interim Federalist Party President
Current Federalist Party Vice President (3 mandates)
Secretary of Eduction (3rd mandate)
Former member of the US Marines.
Current military rank of Captain, soon to be promoted to Colonel.
Current member of the Congressional US National Guard
Candidate for Speaker of the House. (Came in 2nd to Kyle321n).

In short, I’ve been around and I know eRepublik works. If elected, I promise to bring my expertise and leadership to represent New Jersey with honor.

Bringing Home the Pork- Q5 Hospital for New Jersey

At this moment, Congress stands ready to purchase a Q5 hospital for New Jersey. I’ve lead the charge to ensure this process takes place quickly. Later this morning, I will place a proposal up to donate $28,000 USD to Florida Commerce Bank, owner of FAQ Hospitals, the only Q5 hospital company in America. This money will go to speed up production and will also fund another Q5 hospital to be placed in another location in the US after the current Q5 is placed in NJ. The hospital is currently 1520/2000 done. In short, the hospital should be done relatively quickly. Once the hospital is completed, it will be placed in New Jersey. This will greatly help NJ and should increase our population. Also, it will take the weight off of Florida in times of war. In short, this is a great thing for our state and I am working hard to make sure everything in this process goes smoothly.

I’ve also sacrificed my job and 8+ construction skill to personally work at FAQs to ensure that the hospital comes to NJ as quick as possible.
========================================== ===
Transparency in Government

As we all know, Operation Taco Bell was a complete failure. I only voted for the war under the false pretenses that a PEACE government took over the legislature and we were protecting the freedom of Mexico. As explained in my previous article, I was deceived. As such, I voted for the impeachment of Uncle Sam due to his lack of communication in all matters concerning this operation. Also, I’ve proposed a measure that would increase the transparency of where your tax payer dollars go in times of war.

I’ve proposed an eUS War Powers Act. My hope is, in combination with other bills being discussed in Congress right now such as the Public Information Act (http://eusforum.com/index.php/topic,1875.0.html) proposed by Senator Aren Perry, we can bring full disclosure to how your taxpayer dollars are being spent. My hope is that there will no longer be a blank check feeling when Congress donates money to an organization. For more information on the eUS War Powers Act, check out my previous article.

Taxes
PANEC has passed this session. It has effectively raised the tax burden on all Americans. I have voted against all but one of these measures (exception being the Diamond industry, which is a small industry and could handle the burden of the tax). We’ve seen an increase of tax revenue from PANEC but most Americans have not reaped the rewards. PANEC is being analyzed for its effectiveness at the end of the month. I promised to point out that Americans have not received the tangible benefits of PANEC (i.e. weapons for war), and will thus call for its repeal. If we are going to have high taxes, normal Americans should at least receive some of the benefits of it. Yes, we were able to purchase a new hospital from it, but PANEC at least needs to be examined for its effectiveness and we need to ask the question of why Americans have received weapons for war.
=========================================== ===
Participation in Foreign Entanglements--- The Question of Atlantis

Before this month, Atlantis has been a strong ally in times of war. Yet, through Atlantis’ actions this month as well as the UK’s demand for 100 Gold after Sam attacked Mexico without Atlantis notification ultimately makes me question the usefulness of this alliance. Furthermore, Sam’s willingness to pay this 100 Gold appeasement without Congressional approval makes me further question whether Atlantis is a useful alliance. I’m not saying we should join PEACE; that’s far from the case. I’m saying our participation in ATLANTIS need to be re-evaluated. Particularly in how we inform our allies of our military plans. Therefore, it is my hope Congress creates a committee to reevaluate the effectiveness of this alliance and hopefully improve our diplomatic relations with these nations.

When it comes to participating in foreign entanglements, you again have my vow that I will only vote for defensive wars. And if I end up voting for a war on false pretenses, as I did in the case of Mexico, you have my promise that I will do all in my power to correct this mistake. I did this by voting for Sam’s impeachment. I will do it again if need be.

Tiacha: Protecting Americans first

My philosophy on government has always been to protect internal interests. Protecting American interests has always been my first responsibility in any office I’ve held. If re-elected, I promise to continue to protect you, the New Jersey citizen. I also promise to continue to be honest with you and fight for what is right, even if it is unpopular. New Jersey, it would be my honor to have your vote again come March 25th.

Respectfully,
Tiacha
