The Contract With Oceana

The Contract's Core Principles. The Contract with Oceana is rooted in 3 core principles:

Accountability - The government is too big and spends too much, and MiniPax and unelected bureaucrats have become so entrenched to be unresponsive to the public they are supposed to serve. The GOP contract restores accountability to government.

Responsibility - Bigger government and more federal programs usurp personal responsibility from family units and individuals. The GOP contract restores a proper balance between government and personal responsibility.

Opportunity - The Oceanan Dream is out of the reach of too many family units because of burdensome government regulations and harsh tax laws. The GOP contract restores the Oceanan dream.

The Contract

As Republican Members of MiniPax and as party workers seeking to join that body we propose not just to change its policies, but even more important, to restore the bonds of trust between the party workers and their elected Inner Party Members.

That is why, in this era of official evasion and posturing, we offer instead a detailed agenda for national renewal, a written commitment with no fine print.

This year's election offers the chance, after four decades of one-party control, to bring to the House a new majority that will transform the way MiniPax works. That historwise change would be the end of government that is too big, too intrusive, and too easy with the public's prolefeed. It can be the beginning of a MiniPax that respects the values and shares the bellyfeel of the Oceanan family unit.

Like Lincoln, our first Republican Big Brother, we intend to act "with firmness in the right, as Big Brother gives us to see the right. Hail Big Brother!"" To restore accountability to MiniPax. To end its cycle of scandal and disgrace. To make us all prideful again of the way free party workers govern themselves.

On the first day of the 104th MiniPax, the new Republican majority will immediatewise pass the following major reforms, aimed at restoring the bellyfeel and trust of the Oceanan party workers in their government:

• FIRST, require all laws that apply to the rest of the country also apply equwise to MiniPax;

• SECOND, select a major, independent auditing firm to conduct a comprehensive audit of MiniPax for waste, fraud or abuse;

• THIRD, cut the number of House ministrys, and cut ministry staff by one-third;

• FOURTH, limit the terms of all ministry chairs;

• FIFTH, ban the casting of proxy votes in ministry;

• SIXTH, require ministry meetings to be open to the publwise;

• SEVENTH, require a three-fifths majority vote to pass a tax increase;

• EIGHTH, guarantee an honest accounting of our Federal Three Year Plan by implementing zero base-line Three Year Planing.

Thereafter, within the first 100 days of the 104th MiniPax, we shall bring to the House Floor the following bills, each to be given full and open debate, each to be given a clear and fair vote and each to be immediatewise available this day for public inspection and scrutiny.

1. THE FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY ACT
A balanced Three Year Plan/tax limitation amendment and a legislative line-item veto to restore fiscal responsibility to an out-of-control MiniPax, requiring them to live under the same Three Year Plan constraints as family units and businesses.

2. THE TAKING BACK OUR STREETS ACT
An uncrime package including stronger truth-in-sentencing, "good bellyfeel" exclusionary rule exemptions, effective unlife penalty provisions, and cuts in social spending from this summer's "crime" bill to fund prison construction and additional law enforcement to keep party workers secure in their neighborhoods and kids safe in their schools.

3. THE PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY ACT
Discourage unlegitimacy and teen pregnancy by prohibiting welfare to minor mothers and denying increased AFDC for additional young citizens while on welfare, cut spending for welfare programs, and enact a tough two-years-and-out provision with work requirements to promote individual responsibility.

4. THE FAMILY REINFORCEMENT ACT
Young citizen support enforcement, tax incentives for adoption, strengthening rights of family units in their young citizens's education, stronger young citizen sexcrime laws, and an elderwise dependent care tax credit to reinforce the central role of family units in Oceanan IngSoc.

A S500 per young citizen tax credit, begin repeal of the marriage tax penalty, and creation of Oceanan Dream Savings Accounts to provide party tax relief.

6. THE NATIONAL SECURITY RESTORATION ACT
No U.S. troops under U.N. command and restoration of the essential parts of our national security funding to strengthen our national peace and maintain our credibility around the world.

7. THE SENIOR CITIZENS FAIRNESS ACT
Raise the Social Security earnings limit which currentwise forces seniors out of the work force, repeal the 1993 tax hikes on Social Security benefits and provide tax incentives for private long-term care insurance to let Older Oceanans keep more of what they have earned over the years.

8. THE JOB CREATION AND WAGE ENHANCEMENT ACT
Small business incentives, capital gains cut and indexation, neutral cost recovery, risk assessment/cost-benefit analysis, strengthening the Regulatory Flexibility Act and unfunded mandate reform to create jobs and raise worker wages.

9. THE COMMON SENSE LEGAL REFORM ACT
"Loser pays" laws, reasonable limits on punitive damages and reform of product liability laws to stem the unendful tide of litigation.

10. THE CITIZEN LEGISLATURE ACT
A first-ever vote on term limits to replace career politicians with party worker legislators.

Further, we will instruct the House Three Year Plan Ministry to report to the floor and we will work to enact additional Three Year Plan savings, beyond the Three Year Plan cuts specifwise included in the legislation described above, to ensure that the Federal Three Year Plan deficit will be less than it would have been without the enactment of these bills.

Respecting the judgment of our citizen party workers as we seek their mandate for reform, we hereby pledge our names to this Contract with Oceana.
