STATE OF THE COMMONWEALTH
The purpose of the State of the Commonwealth Reports is to increase Cabinet transparency and provide an insight into the happenings of the Government. This information is provided in good faith and although it may be listed here as a goal, it may not occur. This report simply outlines Government achievements, plans, and goals. Although this is the State of the Commonwealth for the month of December some of the data was gathered in January.

TRANSCRIPT OF PRESIDENTIAL ADDRESS
While December was hardly the most active month of my administration, which was partly due to the fact that several members of cabinet and I were finishing exams and college applications, I’m proud to say that we persisted in keeping things in order and maintaining confidence in the government of our Commonwealth.
While we, unfortunately, saw the resignation of Vice President GoldBlooded from his position, new life was brought to the executive with the confirmation of Vice President LilDigiVert, who has since been amazing as an advisor and an advocate for making cabinet the best it can be.
Digi helped pioneer the release of Project Redmont, a week in which cabinet dedicated itself to pushing various initiatives. I cannot sufficiently express my appreciation for the diligent work of Digi, my secretaries, and their departments. Without the dozens of Redmont government employees that we are so lucky to have, it wouldn’t have been possible to release the initiatives of DEC academic grants, new town guidelines, comprehensive leadership reform in the Department of Justice, new chef recipes, a second census, central banking legislation, and the various other ideas of Project Redmont.
Additionally, I’d like to say a special thank you to the Department of Public Affairs for their work in the DC Choice Awards: I directly know that it took several hours for Twix and DPA leadership to sort through all the polling, and while the actual event was in January, I feel that it’s important to recognize the amazing work that they did this December.
As we near the last quarter of my term, I should say that it has been an immense honor to work in Redmont’s highest office and receive so many opportunities to serve the people of Redmont.
Glory to Redmont
Signed,
President 218218Consumer
