I've caught my self up and am loving this this AAR, I as hoping I could join. I've got a Senator to propose:
Name: Senator John Andersen of Colorado ((last I checked there are no Senators for this great State yet))
Born: 1902 (41 Years)
Party: Democrat
Policy ideas:
-- Foreign policy plans: This state of war is tragic, however, it presents America with an opportunity to reshape the world. America must voice its clear support for democracy and self determination as we did after the Great War, and our determined opposition to imperialism in all of its forms. While France and Italy both have allied governments, they have also had ones at war with us. We propose the complete dismantlement of French and Italian colonial holdings to follow a timeline similar to that to be imposed on our enemies. Furthermore, our erstwhile allies the Soviets will pose the greatest threat to democracy after the defeat of our present enemies. The United States must prepare for the possibility of further war, and prepare an alliance for this eventuality.
-- Budgets for IC: Expansion of our Airforce will allow us to utilize modern technologies and pave the way for the future. The proud state of Colorado is well placed and has the necessary infrastructure to begin accommodating rapidly expanding forces. Secondly, the current state of war allows the government the opportunity to continue the New Deal and continue industrial expansion to be returned to civilian use in peace time.
-- Budgets for leadership: Research will show the way to the future and must be the highest priority. While American espionage has had recent success, it must be remembered that the state of war is largely the result of the subversion and direct attacks on legitimate democratic governments. All efforts possible must be made to protect our freedoms domestically, and to support and restore legitimate democratic government elsewhere.
-- Declaring war/signing peace treaties: The long term prosperity of our nation depends on the expansion of democracy, self-government, and free trade. The defeat of our existing totalitarian enemies is a priority, however, we must examine whether the present conditions favor us in our inevitable conflict with the other totalitarian powers, most notably the USSR our erstwhile ally and Spain.
-- Which faction we align ourselves to, if any: Our current relationship with the allies should be increasingly conditioned upon their commitment to decolonization on a strict timeline. Our current presence in Southern Europe should be combined with strong alliances in Asia to create a potential new bloc should the need arise.
-- If one of the Big Four needs to be fired/replaced: I trust that the President can find a proper and intelligent replacement
-- Input on our general deployments overseas: We should make close ties with Nationalist China, while encouraging democracy, and set up friendly governments in Korea and Japan. Efforts in Europe should focus on heading east to deny the communists expansion, and increase our leverage in pushing the French to decolonize before liberating them.
-- All decisions and law changes: The maintenance and defense of liberty cannot infringe on liberty lest it become that which it fights. The freedoms of American citizens shall be the standard the world strives towards.
-- Nukes!: Civilian deaths and massive destruction if necessary will pave the way for a brighter world for all. ((Even if its because the Earth is glowing green.))
((That was the right call, Avindian. I was simply asking you to do that for now until I could see what I was working with based on the budget for this year.))

Lately, there have been arguments about the proposed Pacific Control Act, I myself do believe that Senator Sacketts proposal was a good start, I do believe that it was to vauge, and left out important clauses that made the bill seem a might bit to Imperialistic.

I am looking for a senator willing to Co-Sponsor this bill (( I was not sure whether to send this to the Presidents desk, due to the fact that I do not yet have a Co-Sponsor))
Avindian said:If this bill is co-sponsored, it is also acceptable. There is obviously some conflict between this and the Asia-Pacific Defense Act; if both are voted for, I may require that the two acts be merged in some fashion.
This bill is acceptable ((section I proposes a switch to Free Press, right?)).
((Think this deserves a separate post))
((So we cant liberate Greece since it was annexed outright. I just went back through the last ten pages or so, have we ever set policy for the future of the Balkans, or the return of Italy's conquests to relevant powers?))
((Is there any good way to clean up the map in Greece? I've only played original HOI3 and that was a while ago.))
I vote Aye on the Pacific-Asia Defense Act
and Aye on the American Wartime Freedom Act
Signed,
Senator Steven Hyde, Wisconsin
I vote Aye on the American Wartime Freedom Act
I plan to filibusterer the vote on the Pacific-Asia Defense Act because I believe that it is incompatible with International Law.
-Senator F. M. Sackett R-KY
(As a side note, I plan to introduce The Atlantic Control Act as well in the near future to address the situation in the Balkans and Italy. I did not anticipate the fight over the pacific bill)
Aye and Aye.
- Senator Wallace H. White, Maine.
I vote Aye in regard to both in order to bring freedom and democracy to all the people of this great earth, be that they live in the U.S. or not.
- Alexander Anikin D-UT
