P.E.A.C.E. Party HQ (Keep Calm and Move Forward)

[GAworth]

Welcome to the Headquarters of the P.E.A.C.E. Party located in Rapid City, SD

As the election season starts up, I wanted to separate the P.E.A.C.E. Party thread from my own. This will allow for Atlasians to know that the party welcomes all members who wish to believe in what the Party stands for. We strive to be transparent and welcoming (notice the glass walls).
For those of you not familiar to what the Party stands for, the please continue reading

P.E.A.C.E. stands for:
P-Putting Atlasia First
E-Energy Security
A-Advancing Equality
C-Commonsense Governing
E-Electoral Reform
Let me explain in a little more detail each of the Letters

Putting Atlasia First - We wish to see the promotion of Made in Atlasia, and in general making sure that Atlasia can be self-sufficient.

Energy Security - We believe that we need to continue the march to becoming totally Energy Independent. We believe this can be achieved with Aggressive investment into Alternative Energies.

Advancing Equality - Continuing to help those less fortunate and to protect the rights of Minorities.

Commonsense Governing - A commitment to help decrease the needless partisanship and helping to improve legislation to make sure that our Governments can get to serving the people.

Electoral Reform - Support of the creation of a bi-cameral National Legislature, also, possible reform of the size or way we elect our regional governments.


The Party Currently is taking time to evaluate upcoming elections, recruiting members, and policy development.

I'm pretty committed to the Labor Party, so it's unlikely that I leave it anytime soon, but if I did, P.E.A.C.E. and the TPP would definitely be my top 2 preferences! I like your platform and I hope the party will be successful.

You have my full support if you opt to run for Althing in September or even Senate in October!

P.E.A.C.E. Party Press Release

Party seeks clarification on early closure of Debate

Rapid City, Vitality (South Dakota)

The Party was concerned today to wake up and find that the At-Large Senate Debate had been closed. We feel that this hinders the chance for Candidates especially minor party and independent candidates from adequately being able to speak. If a remedy is not brought soon, then the Party will look into forming another debate.
