Lore

Strategy
This Political Effect is one that helps your Senators Deck overcome a low battle destiny draw. What's more, it is one of the few ways to adjust a battle destiny draw AFTER it is actually drawn, thus giving you maximum flexibility to determine the best outcome.
If you can drop someone with a taxation agenda here (Horox Ryyder or Yarua), then on your turn you can recycle a card to force your opponent to use 1 or lose 1 (opponent's choice). That's a nasty way to remind the Dark player to save some Force during your turn or pay the penalty.
Combos:

Anecdote: All effects and the objective were playtested initially, and then the agenda's and secondary texts were added later for the second phase of playtest. Political Effects only became "Political Effects" at this time.
