Do I need a confirmation hearing for my appointment to Deputy GM?

Yes, this should be brought before the senate soon.

I find it interesting that Labor senators are leading the charge against the nomination of a Secretary of State by a Labor President. They are undermining his authority and judgement. If people are afraid of the nominee doing terrible or dangerous things on the job, the President can always dismiss him. Senators are not trusting the President to influence and control his Cabinet.

Phrasing it that way makes it sound bad but I do believe that is kind of the point of senate hearings: to prevent the president from wielding absolute power.

Is there a way for the Senate to not recognize Wulfric as a valid Senator, not allow him to be seated. I would ask the AG but ...
Clearly he does not represent the small party with the long name. He is not even in it anymore, was in it a few minutes.

If you believe Wulfric's appointment to the senate was not valid under the law, sue.
