The LCN Lobby For The Destruction Of Military Esports Teams (LCNLFTDOMET) is a lobbying organization within the League that advocates against the esports teams of global military organizations. The current president of LCNLFTDOMET is San Carlos Islands.

Bureaucratic interaction

As July 27th, 2020 the LCN Lobby For The Destruction Of Military Esports Teams has interacted with the following three bureaucrats.

Senator Tom Cotton

On July 24th, 2020 LCNLFTDOMET President San Carlos Islands received a phone call from the office of Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton implying support for the goals of LCNLFTDOMET.

The office of Senator Cotton stated that despite $3,600 being a drop in the bucket of the $700 Billion Department of Defense budget, they believe the United States Air Force Minecraft server and by extension the United States Air Force esports team was still a waste of taxpayer dollars. The office of Senator Cotton affirmed that the USAF Minecraft server also posed security problems as non airmen were accessing the server to ask military members about war crimes.

San Carlos Islands was further notified by the staff of this Senator's office that the Air Force esports team are not only playing Minecraft but games such as Candy Crush, Call of Duty, and Dragon Ball FighterZ. San Carlos Islands and the worker making the phone call discussed that while this may be a scheme to recruit younger individuals to the Air Force, it doesn't prepare recruits to be dropped into countries like Iraq or Afghanistan to fight the enemies of the United States.

San Carlos Islands's query was forwarded to the Military and Defense advisor in Senator Cotton's office.

Congressman Steve Womack

On July 27th, 2020 President San Carlos Islands received a letter in the mail from Arkansas 3rd Congressional District Representative Steve Womack stating his appreciation for San Carlos Islands's "concern for national security and [American] debt" and commending him for "being active in [the American] system of government."

Senator Tammy Baldwin

Spode contacted Wisconsin Senator Tammy Baldwin, and received the following message on July 3, 2020.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me. Your views are important to my work in the United States Senate on behalf of the people of Wisconsin and I appreciate you taking the time to contact me. I will be sending you a full response to the issues you shared with me, but in the meantime, I want to let you know that I received your message and value your thoughts.

If you have written regarding a problem you are having with a federal agency, a caseworker in one of my Wisconsin offices will be contacting you shortly. To expedite direct contact with a caseworker you may also call my Madison office (608-264-5338) for assistance.

Again, thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with me.

And received further correspondence on 19 August 2020.

Thank you for contacting me about defense spending and America’s security posture around the world. I too believe we need to work harder for a more peaceful world, and as such, appreciate hearing your thoughts on this important issue.

Ensuring our common defense is critical, but like other federal government programs, we are bound to ensure that each dollar is spent wisely. There are many elements of the defense budget that consume massive budgetary resources but provide little return in terms of security. Protecting America requires a broad vision of national security that includes diplomacy, foreign assistance, economic development, intelligence, and civilian law enforcement. Particularly after more than 18 years of war, I believe that U.S. defense policy should reflect sensible spending, genuine oversight, and clear priorities. One such priority is caring for our military servicemembers, veterans, and families. These dedicated men and women have sacrificed so much in defense of our nation, and we have a responsibility to ensure that they receive the care and benefits commensurate with their contributions.

We should also invest in our middle class, ensure our security here at home and step up to the plate by providing the resources Americans need. We have previously come together in agreement on the need to take on our national security challenges and our challenges here at home in a balanced way. Moving forward, I believe that Congress needs to maintain this balance as it continues its work to fund national priorities in the appropriations process.

Once again, thank you for contacting my office. It is important for me to hear from the people of Wisconsin on the issues, thoughts and concerns that matter most to you. If I can be of further assistance, please visit my website at www.baldwin.senate.gov for information on how to contact my office.
