Subject: Counteroffer
I do not agree with you here Senator. The penny has three major values to it. It provides a mild cost reduction to the poor, it is a rare check on inflation, and it is an item of national heritage. Eliminating the penny would have negative effects ranging from forcing copper miners into unemployment to increasing our dependence on electronic currency. Even children's penny drives and school penny wars would be harmed.
But you did make an attempt at bipartisanship so I will try to make one as well. Another bill about the treasury. I am drafting a resolution to formally recommend adding Harriet Tubman onto the $20 bill, to replace Andrew Jackson. If you are interested in bipartisanship, I could have you on as a co-sponsor.

Subject: RE: Counteroffer
Senator de Peña,
Your arguments for the penny will be taken into consideration when I present the bill in the Senate, though I understand that you are mostly likely not willing to participate, so I will not badger you about it. Changing focus, your resolution for adding Harriet Tubman is very well-placed, and I will be happy to co-sponsor it.
Best regards,
-Alexander J. Maxwell, United States Senator

@TheAlohaSenator
Shouldn't we have MLK on money before Harriet Tubman or someone like that?

@SenConti
@AlohaSenator They are not mutually exclusive. I hope that we can make it to the Senate to support the resolution encouraging the addition of great women like Harriet Tubman to our national currency. Besides, it's about time women get the recognition they have earned time and time again.

@TheAlohaSenator
@SenConti I fully agree. Lets make sure that everyone involved with Civil Rights gets the recognition they so deserve
