The Senate had only just formed and he was elected into a position of power to represent the interest of the people of Teth and Lirra. Both planets were becoming the back bone of the military complex that was for training and was in the process of being the mooring for the Republic Navy. He would fight hard to have Teth the economic powerhouse the Republic needed it to be. However, today's meeting was for a different reason then to have the Jedi that was fighting and dying on the front lines to have a voice in the Senate.The Senate building was still under construction by the few companies that were working with the Republic such as the UTC and Republic Industries. As such the main Senate chambers were not complete. The meeting of the few senators and representatives were to be held in a forum that was in one of the wings of the constructed building. Several seats were open for the senators and the chancellor sat at the head of the round chamber. The meeting was just to get starting, the senators would be seated as the Chancellor stood up and made the announcement. "This meeting will now commence at the request of the Senator of Teth, Senator Dracks." He looked over to Dracks and sat back down.
From his seat and the two reps behind him, he stood up to address the group and stepped forward to the center of the chamber. His tall being and military posture that was drilled into his being overwhelmed the room as he readied himself to speak, "Thank you Chancellor, I would like to bring the attention of the Jedi Order that has offered their assistance to the Republic in our darkest time of need and have not staggered in their ability and willingness to risk their beliefs in order to being the Law of the Republic to the unlawful reign of the Hutt Territories in these resent weeks." He pressed a button on the center of the table to allow all senators to see the bill he offered in today's meeting. "I say that with their sacrifice they have not just earned a voice within the Senate, but also our respect to defend our charter, as such I have offered the Jedi Integration Bill before the Senate, allowing Jedi Master [member="Kian Karr"] to appoint an Adviser that not just is allowed to attend these meetings, but have a vote in matters that effect their Order," He paused to have that last part sink in with the senators, "and with that I now free the floor to the Chancellor." He stepped back from the center table and stayed standing by his seated area.
The Chancellor stood up again and spoke, "The floor is now open to discussion on Senator Dracks offered Bill."
