§1. INTRODUCTION
Hello Citizens of Firestone,
I’m excited to announce my candidacy for re-election to the House of Representatives! My name is the_rpman.

Over the past three years, I’ve built a successful business and remained deeply involved in community outreach. I believe this blend of experience—in both the public and private sectors—equips me to understand and support the true backbone of our state: our citizens and our local businesses.
I am running for re-election to continue advocating for your voice and pushing forward common-sense, impactful legislation that makes a difference.

Active and Reliable Representation
I’ve maintained consistent attendance in sessions and remained responsive to citizens. I will continue to serve with accountability and transparency.
Future Legislative Ideas
- State-Run Employment Board:
A collaborative Trello board managed by the Department of State and Department of Commerce. It would list all participating government departments and private businesses—organized into Primary, Secondary, Voluntary, Training Departments, and Private Businesses. This will make job searching clearer and easier for citizens. - Timed Detainment Act (Draft Concept):
A legislative proposal to limit how long individuals can be detained without charges. This would create fairer standards and protect civil liberties. While complex, I am committed to starting the conversation and building a workable solution with community input.
