Joe Stevens

Joe Stevens served as the Secretary of State in the Cabinet of President Allison Taylor during Day 7.

Day 7
At a meeting with the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Secretary Stevens expressed his hesitation at the prospect of committing the American military in the civil war in Sangala. President Taylor, already waiting for his post-invasion report, immediately said that the debate was over, and that if he did not support her completely, she would find a Secretary of State who would. After his presentation, he asked if America should intervene when Ule Matobo's forces inevitably capture Benjamin Juma and threaten him with death without trial. She emphasized the importance of maintaining order on the streets in Sangala, and said she'd secure a promise from Matobo himself in her upcoming meeting. Impressed with Joe's work, she apologized to him for dressing him down in front of the Joint Chiefs but also reminded him that she needed his loyalty. He assured her that he would ignore his doubts.
