@ShortKing can go ahead and name Senate Committee Chairs and Republican members (and place them in the Senate Leadership tab for me!)

@Murrman104 can go ahead and name the ranking Republican member and House committee members (and place them in the House Leadership tab for me!)

 

Once we get the House Majority Whip I'll tag the Dems for their membership.

Hayden can't get a roll to save his life.  Two terms as senate minority leader, one term as faction leader, and he's still obscure, which means I have to change my faction leader (and also my avatar). 😞

Thanks for your work in coordinating across the committees. Gains are posted. Action to all to update committee and chair experience. @Largo833 @jnewt @Umbrella @MrPotatoTed @ShortKing @ebrk85 @matthewyoung123 @Murrman104

 

Also if anyone can help/jump in to update the History tab that would be awesome!

 

Next is Factions Leaders!  Lets shoot for 9pm tomorrow, Sunday.

 

Please let me know if you are keeping or swapping out your current faction leaders (as well as if your name is changing).  I believe @MrPotatoTed Joseph Robinson is ineligible. Also for Democrats/Blue Party, let me know if your faction leader will run for party leader!

I know you haven't asked for it yet, but I'll be out for most of tomorrow and don't want to hold anything up, so I think as my only non-obscure politician, I have to have Cordell Hull as my faction leader.  He will not run for party leader. 

House Majority Leader Hull gains debater and puritan.  Will you stay the Schoolbook Liberals?

I'll go with NY Governor Franklin Delano Roosevelt!  He'll aim for party leader.  We'll be the New Deal Democrats.

BlueRight

Switches to John Nance Garner, recently unemployed congressman from TX (does not have obscure).

Garner gains leadership, RW Activists, orator

They will remain the Justice Democrats

BlueRight endorses incumbent party leader @jnewt Huey P Long

 

RedRight

Keep Senate PPT George Moses

Moses gains technology

They will remain the Moderate Republicans
