Recommendation of the Military Commission of Both Nations

In today's session, Congress tackled the sticky issue of financing our national defense. The House of Representatives expressed concerns about the shortfall in the public treasury, which is hindering our ability to raise and supply an army to the stipulated strength. Funds from the national tax imposed this March, in addition to regular taxes, just aren't cutting it.

To counter this, Congress urges The Cabinet's Military Commission to spring into action, mobilizing to raise and outfit the armed forces with utmost haste. Orders have already been dispatched to artillery generals and regiment chiefs to accelerate officer recruitment. Additionally, all states, counties, and local congresses are called upon to make ready for the swift presentation of new recruits as per the law "Method for providing recruits in Poland-Ukraine and Lithuania-Belarus".

Excuses won't be tolerated. With the treasury now properly funded, there's no room for delay. The Military Commission must implement the recruiting law to the letter and oversee that commands follow suit. On a related note, civilian-military commissions in charge of the war chest, raised through the smoke tax (a per household tax), should proceed with purchasing supplies for the magazines (storage depots).
