Topic:

The Improved Hyperspace Protection Act 902 ABY [IHPT 902]

IC Information:

The Galactic Alliance is facing many enemies across the galaxy entering 902 ABY, Such as the Mandalorian-Alliance War and the Sith Empire's Incursions. Along with increasingly horrid rumors of Resurgent Maw Activity on the frontiers and even the Galactic Capital calls for the Senate to increase security and protection measures for the Alliance Merchant Flotilla to continue operations and free flow of trade without fear of enemy privateers and raiders disrupting the economic lifeline of the Alliance in a prolonged conflict.

OOC Intent:

The Protection of Trade Federation and Alliance Shipping from Hired Privateers and a chance for the Federation to expand their own army in response to these emerging threats.

Attachment(s):

N/A

"Senator Lucas Gracin of Veradune would also like voice his support for this bill. We may offer options for the defense of these shipments by way of our Valde's personal company, the VSF which was created for situations such as this."

Topic: Vote of No Confidence

IC info: The current leader of the Galactic Alliance prematurely ended a session of the Senate and made the decision to relocate the Capital by executive fiat, ignoring and silencing those Senators who had concerns about doing so.

If this representative democracy is to retain legitimacy, our current leader must be replaced.

No one can be allowed to show such disregard for the representative democratic process and continue their leadership over a government intended to embody such principles.
