I'm going to start posting all the historical legis props, pres actions, etc by Presidential Administration (and Continental Congresses). I think by organizing it this way, I can figure out if any proposals or whatever are needed for a specific time period.  I'm fixing a lot of things in the spreadsheets as I put these together. 

Below is the 1st Continental Congress time period. It only functioned for part of 1774, but I include the pre-Congressional events. This Congress was quite impotent, and so this period is well-covered, despite its sparseness. 

I'll post the 2nd Continental Congress when I finish that one. 

1st Continental Congress (1774)

 

Scripted Events (excluding flavor events):

  1. Committees of Correspondence - 1772

  2. Gaspee Affair - 1772

  3. Boston Tea Party - 1773

  4. Tea Act - 1773

  5. Declaration of Resolves - 1774

 

Legis Props:

  1. Boycott British Goods - 1774

  2. Petition the King to Repeal the Intolerable Acts - 1774

 

Pres Actions: 

*Not functional until post-Constitution*

 

SC Cases:

*Not functional until post-Constitution*

 

Warfare:

  1. No active war

 

New Gov Actions Available/Unavailable: 

*Not functional until Post-Independence

More "Tea Parties" happened. Philadelphia itself had a tea party (which didn't lead to destruction of tea, but the captain turned back to England), and Charleston had a tea party where they did destroy the tea.  

Random Events where more state legislatures are punished for defiance.

Random Events where royal governors are tarred/feathered and or chased out of their mansion

These are kind of 2nd tier and 3rd tier events. I'm not looking for these. I'm actually quite set for scripted events. Might add more such as these after early release. 

What would be more helpful is if you have any knowledge or can research the needed area where I am requesting help. Basically, for this thread, if I don't purposely request something, then I'm probably not going to add the idea at this time. I appreciate your eagerness to help, nonetheless.

Here's Washington's presidency. High need areas are historical legis props for years 1795 and 1796. Ideally, 4 total. It would also be helpful to find more historical presidential actions the Washington did as president. These would be things he did using the office of the presidency, such as executive actions or other executive branch policy. The presidency was weak in Washington's day, so it isn't required that I have more actions, but it might be nice from a playing standpoint. All suggestions must be historical please.

1783: Treaty of Amity and Commerce with Sweden: Opening commercial relations with Sweden, defining contraband and prohibited goods, highlighting neutrality for merchants in the event of war with a third party, and declaring peaceful - this could be expanded to being "Treaties of Amity and Commerce" without specifying the country because these were pretty standard treaties during the 1780s (https://memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ampage?collId=llsl&fileName=008/llsl008.db&recNum=73)

Thanks. Your policy ideas are actually responses to the French Revolution scripted event.

I was actually just thinking about holidays today.  Ha.

1870: New Years Day, Independence Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day are all established as federal holidays
1880: Washington's birthday established as Federal holiday
1888:  Decoration Day (Memorial Day) established
1894: Labor Day
1938: Armistice Day (Veterans Day) to commemorate end of WW1
1954: Armistice Day becomes Veterans Day to cover all Veterans (especially the newer WWII and Korean Vets)
1968: Uniform Monday Holiday Act (establishing that government holidays should usually fall on Monday)
1968: Columbus Day
1983: MLK Day (though refused by some states until 2000)
2021: Juneteenth

It was unclear when Adams took office whether he was actually able to fire Washington's cabinet.  So he kept a cabinet that didn't particularly like him and had little power over them.  Maybe something about that?

Yeah, maybe he creates the action that allows Presidents to name their own cabinet. So until that happens, you have to inherit it.

Didn't the Barbary Pirates demand payment to not attack American shipping?  It seems to me I remember that Washington & Adams paid some type of tribute money and Jefferson refused leading to the eventual Barbary Coast war??

Here's JQ Adams. Talk about a high-need presidency. Almost no accomplishment, primarily because Congress opposed everything he wanted to do. What I need most are historical legis props that passed during his presidency. I need like 7 or 8 legis props. I need some historical pres actions. I also need 1 historical SC case, whichever seems like the most historical or most interesting. JQ Adams is the great "what if" president because he has all sort of ideas that were never realized.

Potential Legis Props for the JQAdams Presidency (Not sure if any of these are legis props for other presidents, but they were ideas put forward during his presidency)

  1. Establishment of a National University
  2. Establishment of a National Observatory
  3. Establishing a national system of Weights/Measurements (Either metric or imperial). Apparently JQA was very fascinated with weighs and measurements.
  4. National Survey of the Eastern Coastline
  5. Naval expedition of the Pacific Ocean

Wikipedia only lists 1 item, the Tariff of Abominations, as an accomplishment for the 19th and 20th Congress COMBINED.  *facepalm*

Edit:  And I don't just mean the abstract articles, I mean the actual list of federal legislation article, haha.

I found a few websites that have all legislation ever debated by Congress, but you can't search chronologically! You have to know the name or part of the name of the bill. (S. 1246, etc.). I'll find some things if no one else has the time to look.

https://www.congress.gov/search?q={"source"%3A"legislation"%2C"congress"%3A["19"%2C20]}

Had an idea.  Set this to filter by 19th and 20th congress, boom, though you still have to read 1200 things to decide if they're important.  I'll take a look too though and report back in a bit.
