Your Most Excellent Excellency,

While we realize that for you to maintain any official relations with the Papal Patch, since there is no diplomatic relations established between Atlasia and us, would be difficult, we would like to suggest that Atlasia, represented by you, should consider establishing formal relations between Nyman, D.C. and the Holy See, which rules the Universal Northeast Catholic Church (while organizationally unseparable from the Papal Patch temporal government... well, you know what we mean.

Your Holiness,

I understand that in order for both our nations to have a closer and more efficient relationship a formal diplomatic relationship will be needed, and I am indeed considering both the recognition of the Papal Patch and a potential visit, as I previously stated. That said, I will refrain from a formal decision as long as the case regarding Alfred F. Jones is still open so any misunderstandings can be avoided.

For the sake of transparency I should state that Attorney General Zuwo is acting in agreement with the administration and that all judicial matters have been discussed beforehand. We take the judicial system quite seriously, and we share the belief that we were elected to follow and enforce the laws of Atlasia, no matter how hard that may be at times.

I understand your position. While I can't support proceedings against our top Cardinal, I can see you are acting according to the Atlasian law you swore to upheld.

Mr President, I believe, technically, you cannot have one year's Budget just become another's, even if on a temporary basis.

My suggestion would be a continuing resolution, to enable the existing functions to be funded until the new Budget is passed.

Yes, I believe that this is just a matter of wording. Something like this should be more appropriate:

Quote
All the institutions from this Administration will follow the guidelines of expenditures and tax collection from the Fiscal Year of 2014 Budget until a new budget is passed by the Senate, at which point this Order will be rescinded.

My apologies then, we have little to no precedent for this and by now everybody knows that I still have some significant weaknesses in the language. I will introduce the resolution right away before the Senate instead of using an Executive Order, and I believe a slightly modified version of Superique's language will suffice (thanks for that, Superique!).

Can the President form a Commission on Commission forming in a Commission based society?

The way things are going I could even call a Commission to determine how to exile some of my really vocal critics, but it would get me impeached, xD (Again)
