'''Kristine Lasky''' is a [[Federation|Federal]] [[Congressman]]. In March 3302, she criticised [[President of the Federation|President]] [[Zachary Hudson]] for replacing [[Starship One]] with two [[Farragut-Class Battle Cruiser]]s, which she argued was an unnecessary expense and a burden on Federal taxpayers. In March 3307, she and [[Empire|Imperial]] [[Senator]] [[Ava Cornelius]] co-sponsored the [[Cornelius-Lasky Convention]] at the [[Galactic Summit]].

03 MAR 3307
*Leaders from the [[Alliance]], [[Empire]] and [[Federation]] have agreed a series of minor treaties at the [[Galactic Summit|diplomatic gathering]] in the [[Sirius]] system. [[Vox Galactica]] featured this report from political correspondent [[Conrad Sterling]]: "Following days of heated arguments, temperatures in the conference chamber finally cooled enough for all three superpowers to formalise a raft of agreements. These were ratified in person by [[Anders Blaine|Chancellor Blaine]], [[Zachary Hudson|President Hudson]] and [[Edmund Mahon|Prime Minister Mahon]]. The most significant of these treaties is the [[Cornelius-Lasky Convention]], named after its two leading proponents. This requires the Alliance, Empire and Federation to share information on any large-scale threats to civilian populations, including environmental, medical and xenological crises. There has been slow progress on other topics, such as military limitation and border control. Many [[independent]] ambassadors are demanding to prioritise debates on the [[Thargoid]] issue, and especially the defensive role played by [[Aegis]]. Outside the chamber, [[Jenna Fairfax|First Minister Fairfax]] invited [[Aisling Duval|Princess Duval]] to a small ceremony to honour her late father. Fairfax formally apologised for [[Harold Duval|Prince Harold's]] death and condemned the terrorists responsible. Aisling Duval gracefully accepted this, but time will tell if it was an empty gesture or the first step toward Imperial-[[Marlinist Colonies|Marlinist]] rapprochement."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/603f8712228a4030f344bcb3 GalNet: Superpowers Make Progress at the Galactic Summit]</ref>
01 MAR 3302
*Following the recent retirement of the last [[Saud Kruger]] [[Narwhal Liner|Narwhal]] from the [[Starship One|presidential fleet]], critics of the [[Zachary Hudson|Hudson]] administration have commented on the decision to make use of two [[Core Dynamics]] [[Farragut-Class Battle Cruiser|Farragut-class battle cruisers]] as presidential transport vessels. In an interview with the [[Federal Times]], [[Congressman|Congresswoman]] Kristine Lasky said: "These aren't industry-standard ships that can be purchased on the market. These are mainline warships – the largest in the [[Federal Navy]]'s inventory. That the [[President of the Federation|president]] intends to make use of not one but two of these ships should seriously concern taxpayers. Is it necessary for the president to deploy a battle group every time he visits a foreign dignitary? What message does that send to other heads of state? It looks less like a matter of security and more like a show of force!" Congresswoman Lasky announced that she will call upon the Federal Accountability Office to investigate the acquisition and deployment cost to the taxpayer, and put forward a measure to limit the president's use of the ships to a handful of occasions per fiscal year.<br/>Commander Driggers<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/en/galnet/uid/56d5820f9657ba4309c210e8 GalNet: Freelance Report: Presidential Fleet Upgrade Questioned]</ref>
