LETTER TO CONGRESS - VICE PRESDENT AND SECRETARIES
PRESS RELEASE
Office of Vice President Derpy representing Cabinet as a whole.
Cabinet has come together and written a letter to Speaker Mhadsher101 regarding President Deadwax incapacitation. The letter is as follows:
"Dear Mr. Speaker of the House,
We, the assembled members of Cabinet no longer maintain faith in President Deadwax's abilities to conduct his constitutional duties and as such declare Deadwax to be incapacitated.
The President's destructive conduct with regards to the sovereignty of branches of Government, managing foreign relations and disregard for the will of the people have led us to make this decision. Albeit it one with dire consequences it is something we do not take lightly for the betterment of Redmont."
This was signed by State Secretary GoldBlooded, Justice Secretary Technofied, Legal Affairs Secretary The_Donuticus, Chief of Staff & Public Affairs Secretary Rurge, Construction Secretary LavenderxBlaxii, Interior Secretary SomeHumanOnEarth, Health Secretary sleepyjay and finally myself as Vice President.
