Chawosauria First!

In the 2024 Chawosaurian elections, ***Chawosauria First!*** is the campaign strategy formulated by the Chawosaurian Revolutionary Party to put Chawosaurian domestic issues front and center of the 2024 midterm elections. The strategy is to hammer Chawosaurian domestic and social issues such as the Chawo-Uralic War, the status of western pop culture and iTech in Chawosauria, and other issues. The theory behind this strategy is that Chawosaurians are culturally sensitive against pop culture and are universally opposed to the Ural Wall and the Chawo-Uralic War. Chawosaurian Revolutionaries seek to prioritize opposition to the Chawo-Uralic War, popular culture, and iTech and minimize the importance of the accomplishments of the solidly left-wing 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government on climate, COVID-19, and constitutional reform and democratization, by supporting these initiatives in hopes to make them sound less partisan thereby less important, while the Chawosaurian left-wing ruling class fluster over the Chawo-Uralic War, Shang Jong Parker's unpopularity, and their overfocusing on global events.

For Chawosaurian conservatives and the whole Chawosauria series in general, *Chawosauria First!* plays the role as the Chawosaurian version of the *"Contract with America"* agenda from U.S. history, the Contract with America was an American conservative agenda that was formulated by the U.S. Republican Party to win the 1994 U.S. midterm elections, which Republicans did come out victorious and thereby ended an era of political dominance of the U.S. Democratic Party that had existed in the United States dating back to the Presidency of Franklin D. Roosevelt. At first, the Contract with America agenda was stalled in a Republican congress thanks to a Democratic U.S. President armed with veto power by the U.S. Constitution; fed up with President Clinton's stubbornness, the Republicans shut the U.S. Government down to force Clinton to surrender, but it backfired, as Americans were hurt by the shutdown and it was the Republicans who had to surrender, and then come to good terms with Clinton. Chawosaurian Revolutionaries fear the same fate with Supreme Leader Shang Jong Parker and the rest of his communist administration if they do win the 2024 elections, resulting in an internal debate on whether the Chawosaurian Revolutionaries should govern in a bipartisan fashion or be confrontive with a communist administration.

## Policies

### Social and Cultural

* Fully support Major Amendment I of the Imperial Constitution of the Empire of Chawosauria as a civil rights policy.
* Push for the Health of Women and Children Act of 2023.
* Enact the Social Morality Act of 2020.
* Lower the presence of western pop culture in Chawosauria.
* Lower the presence of iTech and AIs in Chawosauria and return to 2000s technology.
* Reject anti-LGBT sentiment, racism, sexism, and all forms of discrimination and prejudice.
* A neutral stance on freedom of religion in Chawosauria.

Chawosaurian conservatives have promoted a mostly culturally liberal agenda while tapping into Chawosaurian social issue concerns such as the role of technology, as a way for Chawosaurian conservatives to distance themselves from right-wing politics. Chawosaurians have a general distaste for 2010s and 2020s technology that in 2018, they approved a nationwide ballot initiative that prohibits Chawosaurians under 21 from possessing a smartphone and it has been law ever since.

Chawosaurians universally complained that 21st century western pop culture has gotten too sexual, too much lude-language, too *"woke"* (though Chawosaurians know very little of what the word means but they still dislike the word), too much drug-glorifying, and and too strangely fashioned. Chawosaurian families begin to complain that pop culture is making their children focus less on their academic futures and more on rap music and video games. This allowed Chawosaurian conservatives to wage a culture war against pop culture, and 21st century pop culture has become a very major issue in Chawosaurian politics. Most Chawosaurians absolutely hate the iCarly reboot compared to the first iCarly, SpongeBob SquarePants' popularity has severely waned in Chawosauria, and there were unhelpful events in pop culture that made Chawosaurians even less cheerful about pop culture, such as Will Smith attacking Chris Rock at an award show for roasting his wife Jada Pickett Smith a moment prior, Cardi B throwing a microphone at someone in the audience for throwing a drink at her, and Disney's fight with an American governor over politics.

This has caused a severe fracturing in the Cold War Coalition, a big-tent coalition of Chawosaurian voters of all ideological stripes, races, genders, sexualities, gender identities, socio and economic status, and irreligious beliefs from all urban, rural, suburban, and exurban areas of Chawosauria that supported the Chawallian Communist Party from 1945 to 2015 and its successor: the Chawosaurian Communist Party in the 2019 Chawosaurian elections. The Cold War Coalition came together in 1945 due to Chawosaurians being weary of European colonialism, the influence of Christianity and the existence of Christians in general, and capitalism.

### Domestic

* End the Chawo-Uralic War and the Ural Wall.
* Maintain universal healthcare, education, and housing in Chawosauria.

Due to the de-facto impossibility to change the Imperial Constitution of the Empire of Chawosauria, there is nothing conservatives can do to repeal or change Chawosauria's universal healthcare system, so they are forced to stick with the status quo.

### Economic

* Support and maintain a progressive tax on wealthy Chawosaurians.
* Support tax credits and cuts for middle and lower class Chawosaurians.
* Funding for small businesses, defund big businesses.
* Increase defense spending.
* Reject the policy of austerity.

### Environmental and energy

There is no unified policy on environmental and energy issues amongst Chawosaurian conservatives.
