DOWNLOAD EBOOKRevengeful U.S. Senate Majority Leader Travis McGreedy is confident his New Party lawmakers will pass the unreasonable Santa Tariff Act. The costly bill will prevent this jolly old man from delivering his toys to homes in the United States on Christmas Eve. Because Americans are outraged and demand an explanation, McGreedy decides to bring Santa to Washington to testify before the U.S. Committee of Commerce Subcommittee. He feels this move will vindicate him and result in public support. Later, the Senate will take an official vote. A distinguished senator opposed to the hearing makes a dramatic appeal on Santa’s behalf. Reporter Bill Camper and his young son visit Santa where Brandon got the opportunity to tour the workshop, meet the reindeer and have a conversation with Santa. Camper continues to write a series of articles telling readers the hearing has the earmarks of a contrived trial.
