Popular Liberty Party (PLP) - HAEV You Heard The News?

[FEMA Camp Administrator]

As with the Liberty Caucus or whatever that was called, will there be a neutral position on abortion or what? Seeing as it looks like no straight-up Conservative party is forming, I'm looking for a party I can best moderate my views to fit.

We'll take a moderate, Center-Right position on abortion, basically saying that we don't like the idea of abortion, we don't encourage it, we don't condone it and we want to see less of it, but it should be legal, without federal funding.

I guess if I join I'll call myself a "moderate" then.

     Chapeau !

[Jerseyrules]

Any platform work, etc.?  We in the wiki yet?  Cuz I'd be willing to help out there.

[Jerseyrules]

Welcome, Jerseyrules

Thanks .  So I motion for a brief convention just to take care of the platform.  Would you be okay with a plank supporting all hospitals carrying the morning after pill, in order to reduce abortions?

I support this plank. We will hammer out a full platform throughout the convention, as well as craft a strategy to expand the party

The wiki is up and is located here.

By the way, feel free to take a brownie:

The ZuWo/Jbrase ticket would be thrilled to receive an endorsement from the IFP. If you've got any questions about our stances on the issues, don't hesitate to ask.

As President, how do you plan to protect Individual Freedom, as that is the number one goal of the party?

As you may know, my and Jbrase's number one priority is lowering the tax burden for all Atlasians and reducing regulation for businesses wherever it makes sense to do so. By pursuing these goals, we can contribute to more financial freedom for every Atlasian citizen and Atlasian businesses.

Additionally, we stand for regional rights and will not support legislation that restricts the freedom of the regions of Atlasia by forcing them to adopt federal law on issues which can easily be dealt with on the regional level.

Very good I think it's safe to say that you will have the party's endorsement

Does this mean you would veto a bill that bans abortion or gay marriage nationwide if one ever came to your desk?
