The People of the Cronese Mandate have already revised and resubmitted the amendment to your bill. It appears as though Senator Cambrist has already accepted it. However, views on keeping Senator Cambirst happy, merely because he would rather oppress the progress of helping people and giving them freedom is in its own fact disconcerting. Keeping people like Senator Cambrist happy, by stepping back from your ideals is also very unpleasing. It is the goal of the People of the Cronese Mandate to give more freedom to people, yet it would see that the Senate would rather oppress people, than to give up any sort of power or freedom to the people. This is a problem, and if it is to continue, I believe that the People of the Cronese Mandate will end up turning into an self sustaining sector, and blocking any trade and travel from our borders and becoming an isolated sector from the Empire.

The People of the Cronese Mandate above all support freedom of people, and recently with the Senate disapproving of any bill that would offer that freedom, has given concern to the Cronese Mandate. It would be a horrible choice to make, to become Isolated and cut off resource rich worlds from helping other bills that would need the resources. I am asking that you help keep the Senate from making any more bills that cut freedom from the people and keep them enslaved, by bowing down to the demands of tyrants like Cambrist.

Sincerely, Senator Kuriyoshi

I am not sure that you understand exactly why I elected to ask to omit the third section from your amendment. The Pediatric Medical Center is not about the freedom of the people, but getting children the help that they require in order to live long and healthy lives. Granted, it is my wish for those children to grow up in a democracy where they are free to live their lives as they see fit. But as of now, that is not a possibility.

If you recall, I did vote in favor of the bill that you put forth in the senate. Unfortunately, it was steamrolled, was it not? Choose your battles, Senator. When someone like Senator Cambrist sets their mind to something, it does not matter how many votes you get in your favor, he will not stop until it is hounded into the ground, as you have seen.

I do agree with you that it would be terrible to cut the Cronese Mandate off from the rest of the galaxy. There are benefits to being a self-sustaining community, however. I doubt that the transition would go smoothly though. I wish you luck if that is your decision. Just remember that even though you may not think so, you do have friends and potential allies in this Senate. All you have to do is trust and ask. That is, of course, something that should be spoken of in a face to face setting.

Yours, in Peace,

Forgive my ignorance, I was unaware that you were wed. I will interject my opinion, wanted or not, and advise you that Imperial Center is a very dangerous place. However, I am sure that your wife would be perfectly safe there, despite its many dangers. You must know the right people and the right places to be, and have good security in place. My Riley would be more than thrilled to recommend someone for her should you wish to bring her to Imperial Center. I will have him forward you a list of names should you be interested to bring her, and would like to interview security.

That being said, I am not sure that I would be able to make a trip as far as the Cronese Mandate, though I would enjoy to see it one day. I do have an alternative, however. Come to Chandrila. I am on my way there now. I assure you with every fiber of my being that it is safe there, as well as very beautiful. I am sure that your wife would love it! Not only that, it would be a good idea to see how she does before you take her from her home into a world as intense as Imperial Center.

Please do think about it.

Ilanah

Sincerely, Senator Kuriyoshi
