"Indeed, thy race depend on thy political platform" ~ Joseph Biden

Given that Trump has spent the past 4 years doing everything within his power to alienate and marginalize minorities, I quite frankly agree with Biden’s sentiment. I wouldn’t have put in the words that he did, but in the end, he is correct, when you put up his record and platform against that of Trump’s, it is clear which is the better candidate for tackling issues that minorities face.

Authors: Catlin Brototh
Sponsors: Brototh Andusre


PREAMBLE

Concerned, that House Committees are useless and inefficient
Noting, they've been proven not to work in other regions and the real world
Conscious, that they create needless bureaucracy
Concerned, that they only exist to score political points
Acknowledging, there is already a law that permits Congress to hold ministerial hearings
Believing they have already been used poorly -- see the Domestic Affairs Committee

Congress hereby agrees,

This bill constitutes the repeal of the House Committees Act [LR 028]

How about we don't repeal a bill that's been law for only a few days and has only been used once? Just maybe we don't do that guys.

Hello and welcome to Islorant#8/9 ! Prepare your popcorn and fruit juice, because it's going to take some time. :P

In today's episode of Islorant, we'll talk about Marvinville's Manifesto for the June General Election (Prime Ministership) Click on the spoilers below!

Marvinville for Prime Minister

Why I’m Running for Prime Minister


I am running for Prime Minister of Thaecia to continue to build a better region and government that will lead us in the future. I will do this by expanding the executive branch so more nations can have more opportunities in our government. Thaecia has welcomed me with open arms last year and it is now my turn to welcome new nations with open arms and with opportunities to get involved. In the last Prime Minister election, I built a movement to revive and build our region. I am proud to say that this movement is only growing stronger because of our nations wanting to fight for a better future. Thaecia is my home, your home, our home. To make real, effective changes, we must be united as one. It is our dream to have an ideal region where there are many opportunities for nations to get involved, either it be a lower level minister position, being a Congress member, or just talking to our great residents on the rmb and discord. As a long time Congress member of Thaecia, elected three times to the Senate and twice in the House of Commons, I know how to work with others to accomplish an agenda. I will use my leadership skills I have gained here as well as prior regions I have been a part of to lead this region forward to a newer, brighter, future. So please, If you want to unite with a future to believe in, join my campaign and vote for me in the Prime Minister election!

My Vision for Thaecia


A Strong, Bold Leader

If elected as the Prime Minister, I will take decisive action to make this region stronger and better than what it was before I came into office. With strong leadership, I believe that my administration will be a success because I will work with others, old and new, to accomplish my agenda. For this reason, if elected, I vow to be a one term Prime Minister so I can serve in this office to the best of my ability with out the worry of running a reelection campaign. Therefore, I will work for you, the citizens of this great region, from day 1 of my term to the final day of the 4 month term.

Stand up for all Citizens

As the Prime Minister of Thaecia, I will stand up and fight for all Thaecians in our government. If you want to see something happen in this region, I will do it for you. All you would need to do is to telegram me or send me a message on discord. My dms are open for you to talk to me because that is very important for the success of this region's government.

A Transparent Government

If elected as the Prime Minister of Thaecia, I will answer any questions that our citizens have throughout my term because you have the right to know what we are doing for them in this region. I will also create the position of Press Secretary which will hold briefings fortnightly and will release weekly reports on actions taken by the Prime Minister and our Cabinet.

Ministerial Depth

A Prime Minister must care for all citizens, and as Prime Minister of Thaecia, I will not let this slip. My administration will strive to add more depth to our ministries, creating more minor jobs for our newer members and those who aren’t involved in the government. Through this, our government will be even more diverse, and we can hear even more viewpoints that can bring my government closer to the people than any administration before, and we will be providing more opportunities than any prior government.

Foreign Affairs

As Prime Minister, I will work with the Foreign Affairs Minister to expand our foreign relations as well as continue to build stronger relations with our ally nations that we have embassies with. I believe that an Inter-regional foreign policy approach will benefit our region greatly and our goal will be to strive in foreign affairs and to be more successful in it than any prior administration before. As Prime Minister, I will work with other regions through meetings and events so we can, of course, build stronger relationships. I will also add more positions in our FAM so more nations can get involved in our foreign affairs, which will greatly benefit our region.

Culture Ministry

I find the Culture Ministry as a very important part of our region. It provides activities for nations to remain active in the region and that is what we want. We must continue for the Culture Ministry to be active to provide activities and events for new and older regions in the region to get involved and to be active, as it is a key part on how to keep a region alive. The Culture Ministry will continue to hold events such as movie night and game night throughout the term as well as smaller weekly activities, such as polls, to keep nations active.

Justice Ministry

If elected as the Prime Minister, I will enact no reforms to the Justice Ministry, because simply, there is nothing to fix. The Justice Ministry must always continue to treat all nations fairly and must not be used as a partisan tool to be used as a weapon for the Prime Minister against their opposition. I believe that Broustan has done a great job as the JM under 2 administrations and I would renominate him to serve under me for another 4 months if he accepts the job.

Thaecian Roleplay

I fully support the independence between Thaecias government and Roleplay. The Roleplay community is in good hands with Islonia and Brototh in charge and they know what the RP community wants in a good Roleplay. If elected as Prime Minister, I will once again nominate Islonia for SoRP due to the pride and effort he puts into the RP.

Re-establish the Recruitment Ministry

I praise the Korsinia Administration for the recruitment that they have done to help grow the region. We, however, can make this process more organized and long lasting. By re-establishing the Recruitment Ministry, we can have an organized team that will work together to recruit new nations and refounded nations by using stamps, API, and methods of manual recruitment. We will also set up a nation for recruitment so it can receive gifted stamps from the region to fuel our active recruitment campaign to new and refounded nations. The Ministry will also set up a team for manual recruitment and it would be a great way for new nations to get involved in our government. Participants of the manual recruitment team will learn the tactics of manual recruitment so we can have an extensive recruitment strategy. Our goal will be to reach at least 500 nations in the region by November.

Establish the Education Ministry

As Prime Minister, I will establish the Education Ministry, with its purpose to provide courses for nations to take to learn about the region and how to get involved in it. The Education Ministry would be tasked with creating a curriculum and setting up courses for nations to take whenever they wish. The Ministry will look for experienced government members of Thaecia to be professors so the nations that take the courses can gain the most out of them.

Creation of the Security Committee

As the Prime Minister of Thaecia, I will make sure the region is safe, from external and internal threats. I will do this through creating a Security Committee, consisting of my most trusted and experienced advisors, who will meet when the region is potentially vulnerable. In doing so, I will not be wasting government resources on having a permanent Defence Ministry, but I will be ready and prepared if Thaecia faces danger to security.

Climate Change Action

As the Prime Minister of Thaecia, I will declare a climate emergency and will take necessary action to pass it through Congress. With a climate emergency declared, we will create an ever updating resource list for activists to get involved in policy. In addition to this, I will create an environmental action task force to deal with this in the region. The task force will encourage environmental activism while providing resources needed to inform Citizens on this issue.

Inter-regional Football (Soccer) League

This is one of the most exciting parts of my agenda for Prime Minister. It will improve relations with other regions while also having some fun in an event. I did this when I was the President in The LCRUA and it was a huge success and very popular. We got some big name regions to join it as well, like 10000 Islands and Wintreath.

Read factbook

I. An Independent Approach
I won't say anything outside the fact that you should not even state this. The executive isn't about politics, it's about running a region. Independency from a political party means nothing, and so does having a multiparty cabinet only for the sole purpose of diversity. Representation for the sake of representation =/= Efficiency. As long as the executive is doing a fine job, no one cares about your political affiliation. :)

II. Stand up for all Citizens
N/A

III. More Transparency
Here comes the fun part.
a. I hardly see how you can make the executive more transparent. My motion that passed and made almost every channels (except the ones with state secrets/the rp channel that isn't readable because it isn't either in the RP server) readable by residents was the most transparent thing you could do. Whoever resident joins the server knows almost everything about what the govt is doing outside FA & important things (eg Cabinet matters).
b. Literally being the executive's postman, I hardly see the need for a "Press Secretary". You don't need a whole position for this, just someone with communication permission that's online when you need to relay information. Don't create roles for the sake of creating roles.
c. Let's be real, a weekly report is hard to maintain and not really useful. The executive works on activity spikes and when a piece of information needs to be passed to the region, we immediately do a region:thaecia. A weekly report, while being a good idea, is in itself more of a burden than anything else. And that isn't what this game is supposed to be.

IV. Ministerial Depth
Korsinia's administration has already been doing this. So please put the patronizing "we will be providing more opportunities than any prior government." elsewhere.

V. Foreign Affairs
Did I say III. was the fun part? Let me change that then.

"Unlike the previous administration, I will not jeopardise the reputation of the region due to a controversial recruitment policy."
-> The reputation of the region was jeopardized by trollers of our own community that went trolling on the forums and the NSGP Discord. It was jeopardized by a teleguided operation from our old friend Jamestownn that made people believe Thaecia was sending agressive merger requests to a lot of regions despite the actual and previous administrations having a harsh stance on mergers. The tag:wa was just the nail in the coffin.
"I will try to rebuild the bridges that were previously destroyed, and I will look to make Thaecia an influential region that is admired across Nationstates."
-> Our bridges were almost all rebuilt. The ones that weren't were because the regions to which we addressed all their concerns (see https://sites.google.com/view/gov-thaecia/official-statements/recruitment-policy-statement) didn't want to keep relations with us for no reason. Why should we keep relations with regions that were so lunatic?
"It is because of the previous administration, that Thaecia is incredibly disliked by many, and I will fight to regain the respect that you, the Thaecian citizens lost under the current Prime Minister."
-> Thaecia is disliked by a minority. And it isn't because of the previous administration. It's because Brototh and Cerdenia trolled on NSGP, it's because of the Forums and the people who have nothing else to do than bash a region because it didn't comply to what they thought was "law". I'm so sorry that the government had the guts to keep Thaecia independent from people who think they can impose their will on us just like that.
"I, Marvinville, will actually take care in dealing with international affairs, because I understand the importance of having allies and respect."
-> So did we, and so will we continue to do. See by yourself! We got TEP in our friendlist in the end. We kept good relations with most of our friends -- outside the shady ones.

I personally find this disgusting. Our administration stood up for our values and what our population wished. You are yourself a member of the FA Council and know how tricky this was and is. How shady some regions were, how bad can some individuals act and how far such futile things can lead. Here you're just blatantly lying to everyone and using your lies to score political points. Your Foreign Policy isn't about representing Thaecia, it's about selling it to outside investors. Yes this is a metaphor

VI. Culture Ministry
"My Culture Ministry"
It's not YOUR culture ministry. It's Thaecia's CM. Oh and the actual CM has already been doing this.

VII. Justice Ministry
N/A.

VIII. Thaecian Roleplay
N/A

IX. Re-establish the Recruitment Ministry
You don't need a ministry for recruitment. Marvin, you're so needy for a specific ministry that you should just preside over this by yourself, just like Korsinia devolved the recruitment to me. You don't need a ministry for recruitment. It's not a specific part of the administration's job, it's THE administration's job. After all, you first need a population before having institutions. You can enter the administration by simply being a recruiter, but anyone in the administration can help, even if it's just once, in the recruitment effort without having to be part of a ministry.
Also manual recruitment is time-consuming, so you should turn yourself to API recruitment.

X. Establish the Education Ministry
We already have one. Sadly we just lost two of our EM construction crew members, so we're not doing much. Remember that setting up such ministry isn't easy task.

XI. Creation of the Security Committee
This already exists. COBRA, which was set up by Rayekka is still active when it is needed. For example, during the early term crisis, COBRA was composed of Korsinia, The Bigtopia, The marconian state & me. However COBRA isn't a permanent committee, and its members change depending on the situation.
It also is worth noting such a committee is only needed if persons OUTSIDE the Cabinet are required, otherwise crises are first solved by the Cabinet.

XII. Climate Change Action
Let's be real; you're just trying to get SPT's voters here. Such action is useless and the need for legislation is futile. Our region is already aware of the climate emergency and isn't here on a POLITICAL AND ROLEPLAY simulator to remind them that our planet is burning. RP Legislation such as these should only exist once our democracy is perfect, which will NEVER happen. You don't need the Prime Ministership for such action. You can just be like IRL people and be a climate militant, but considering everyone agrees with you, there won't be much to do.

XIII. Inter-regional Football (Soccer) League
Rhyssua come here, you have a football league to set up!!!

Rhyssua, Dizgovzy, Korsinia, The marconian state, and 9 othersAndusre, Xernon, Titanne, Broustan, Lemonadia, The Bigtopia, The Islamic Country of Honour, The peoples caribbean union, and Ben yedder

XI. Creation of the Security Committee
This already exists. COBRA, which was set up by Rayekka is still active when it is needed. For example, during the early term crisis, COBRA was composed of Korsinia, The Bigtopia, The marconian state & me. However COBRA isn't a permanent committee, and its members change depending on the situation.
It also is worth noting such a committee is only needed if persons OUTSIDE the Cabinet are required, otherwise crises are first solved by the Cabinet.

XII. Climate Change Action
Let's be real; you're just trying to get SPT's voters here. Such action is useless and the need for legislation is futile. Our region is already aware of the climate emergency and isn't here on a POLITICAL AND ROLEPLAY simulator to remind them that our planet is burning. RP Legislation such as these should only exist once our democracy is perfect, which will NEVER happen. You don't need the Prime Ministership for such action. You can just be like IRL people and be a climate militant, but considering everyone agrees with you, there won't be much to do.

XIII. Inter-regional Football (Soccer) League
Rhyssua come here, you have a football league to set up!!!

Ahem I would like to take this time to promote the Dizgovzian Federal Football League, where Thaecians can sponsor a Dizgovzian team and watch as they fight for glory (in a country of 2.5 million but still! it's the most popular sport for a reason).
