Labor Party

The Labor Party is an American political party that was founded on October 1st, 1999, as a merger of the Democratic and Liberal parties. The two parties decided to merge after an onslaught of political turmoil that struck the Democratic Party following President Boxy's veto of the American Dream Act, an immigration overhaul bill written and presented by the Liberal Party Chairman, Spencer L.-Koffler.

Since its creation in 1999, the Labors have gathered an impressive list of accomplishments for a new political party. The re-election of President Carl Marks in the 2008 General Election meant the Labor Party was the first party to achieve the re-election of a Presidential nominee since the re-election of then-Democratic President Nico Thomsen-Holland. In the first few years following the creation of the party, the leaders announced and publicized the Teal New Deal, a massive legislative package composed of over thirty-five bills, many of which have since been signed into law.

Pre-Party History
The Liberal Party was a successful third-party in American politics that was founded by the 46th Vice President of the United States, Spencer L.-Koffler, in 1995. The third party was composed of a majority of former members of the Progressive Party, which ceased to exist days after the creation of the Liberals. The main goal behind the Liberal Party was to combat the Democratic establishment, and to force their hand on key left-wing legislation. As the party began to grow in the 1996 General Elections and the 1998 Midterm Elections, the Democratic Party began to appear more and more as a moderate or centrist political party, costing them seats in urban communities.

In both 1996 and 1998, the Democrats refused to collaborate or negotiate with the Liberals and denied any terms put forth by the Liberals, costing them multiple majorities in both the Senate and House of Representatives, as well as harming relationships between the party members themselves. In 1997, the Liberals reached an agreement with the Republican Party under then RNC Chairman Austin Crapo. The agreement allowed for a significant increase in seats for the Liberals in the 1998 midterms, however stopped the Democrats from reaching the majority seat threshold.

As President Boxy continued pushing the Democrats further to the centre, aided by the left-wing Liberal Party changing the voter demographics in the country, the two parties began working together once again following the internal election of former President Nico Thomsen-Holland as the DNC Chairman.

Fallout following tapes showing President Boxy's inclination to launch nuclear attacks at Congress out of anger over the American Dream Act saga, the President decided to resign, allowing for Vice President 2Hats to be inaugurated President of the United States of America later that year. 2Hats nominated the Liberal Party Chairman, Spencer L.-Koffler, as his Vice Presidential nominee. Given the conjoined Democrat-Liberal White House, DNC Chairman Nico Thomsen-Holland and LNC Chairman Spencer L.-Koffler held internal party referendum votes on the unification of both parties as a new Labor Party.

Both internal referendums ended in support of the merger, as both chairmen publicly announced the dissolution of their respective parties and the creation of the new Labor Party on October 1, 1999.

Party Leadership
Following the merger between Democrats and Liberals, the parties agreed to shared custody of leadership positions on a temporary basis. Nico Thomsen-Holland would serve as the Labor Party Chairman, but conditions of the merger meant he would appoint Spencer L.-Koffler as a Co-Chair of the Party. Koffler would serve as the sole Co-Chair through multiple terms, but his time would be cut short following his sudden death in May of 2004. His wife, the former Second Lady and the former First Daughter, would be appointed to fill his position in 2004, making Mila Badonker-Koffler the first female Chairperson of any major political party in American history.

In 2008, the Labor Party would vote on internal party bylaw reforms granting the Chairman permission to appoint a second Co-Chair. Immediately after the passing of the bylaw amendment, Senator Cim Took was appointed as the second Co-Chair of the Labor Party.

Other stagnant leaders in the party have been Senator Vortex of Illinois, who has served as both the Senate Leader and the President Pro Tempore of the Senate since the creation of the party in 1999. Deborah O'Malley is the current Labor Party House Leader, and has been re-elected to numerous terms.
