| Message | We thank the PCP for thinking about our environment after the opposition changed our law. |
| Date | 11:11:02, May 15, 2017 CET | From | Patriotic Party of Baltusia | To | Debating the Forests Act |
| Message | Members of Congress, When the Patriotic Party Governor took over the running of Terrarokka we found the previous communist regime had allowed the abundant rain forests to severely overgrow - as part of their over-the-top "Don't kill a tree" environmental campaign. Not only do we need to 'prune back' out forests to open up land for housing and industrial developments but it will also provide a much needed boost for our logging industry, so we believe the current law is suitable. Jeremiah Braggart Congressman for Llajta West, Terrarokka |
