On a side note, Pro, wasn't Hook invited to something like a ball, right?

He was. The luncheon is purely for certain influential members of Congress, the Ball is a far broader affair. The luncheon will end on Friday, with the ball starting immediately thereafter.

There is the possibility of making a modification in order to invite Representatives Brennan and Rhodes to the luncheon, if you both wish it, given their lengthy careers, and the absence of any other characters of yours at the luncheon. Alternatively, there is simply the option to await the Ball. Are there any thoughts on the matter?

For the record Brennan did drop out of the senate race so no conflict there

Its generally just assumed that the Senators/Reps know each others email addresses and you could just put her name in the "to" box.

If you want to know exactly what it is I'd suggest TGing Tumblr

Unless Kelvi has a problem with it, and I don't think he does, I think we can approve Brennan and Rhodes getting an invite, unless Terrelis shows up to veto

Ah, Freed, I guess it wasn't known, Spicy didn't vote against a penny bill, she shot it down in an email with the sponsor when he floated the idea. It's not public knowledge.

Dent made the same mistake. You can delete the post if you want.

I reconnected it to say "make sure she is okay with it before you go forward. I don't know how she feels about it but you don't want her as an unknown"

Brankers will threaten filibuster on Puerto Rican statehood, it is too expensive.

Personally I agree that the expenses are outrageous but we also have 3.5 million second class citizens who don't have equal representation.

He does not care, he would totally vote for DC statehood though, since it does not cost that much much

None of the Johnsons are there

Terrelis is the one who did all the setup. I guess it's just a freeforall for seating now

It's noticeable. He's really gotta come to terms with the fact that he's a freshman Senator from a tiny state who's never been in Washington before and he can't just go screwing around with the Speaker of the House or Senate leaders. He's gonna be in a better place if he gets over that.
