The '''Workers' Party''' is the newest formed far-left party, founded in January 2021. The party is known to host a range of left-wing members ranging from social democrats to communists. Though it has generally been interpreted as the successor to the then recently dissolved [[United Left]], the party was formed with a variety of members, including former prominent members of the [[Social Democratic Party]], such as [[Kevin]], and the [[Global Labour Party]]. The Party has seen its largest electoral success in the states of [[Dixie]] and [[Puerto Rico]]. The party is a member of the Left Coalition that has formed between the three big left parties.

==Formation and Early Days==
Following the defeat of [[Michael Wazowski]] in the Dixie Senate and the continuing collapse of the United Left, Wazowski would make the decision alongside then United Left leader [[Ricca]] in forming a new party for members who did not feel as if they belonged to any of the other existing Left Coalition parties. As the idea expanded, the two would see [[Moonguy]] and former President [[Politophile]] join the party to build up the required membership and lead it to formation.

The party would form the same day as the Pirate Party, which as of May 2021 has been dissolved. The party would see criticism from day one from both sides of the political aisle. Dubbed the successor party to 'Pokeism' the party would struggle in it's early days with few members joining and both sides of the aisle unwilling to begin formal discussions.

==Joining Left Coalition==
Despite the Party's formation being forged in pre-existing animosity between some factions of the far-left and the Left Coalition, as shown by the Party's ambivalence in the March 2021 Presidential Election, relations between the Workers' Party and the Left Coalition did gradually improve, with the Party formally beginning a Left Coalition member immediately following the March elections.

==Gradual Growth==
Since its formation, the Party has seen slow but steady growth, with the April State elections being the first election in the Party's history in which in contested at least a single race in every state, with new party branches being formed [[North]] and [[Jefferson]], though remaining generally minor factors. The May Federal elections additionally saw two new representatives elected on the Party's behalf, and rising WP star [[Rosa Berry]] coming close to beating established political insider [[Tedd Ddet]] in the District of Columbia's At-Large Congressional District.

The May Federal elections were also the first time in the Party's history in which it won a majority of votes in contested seats.

Dubbed the successor party to 'Pokeism' the party would struggle in it's early days with few members joining and both sides of the aisle unwilling to begin formal discussions.

==Joining Left Coalition==
Despite the Party's formation being forged in pre-existing animosity between some factions of the far-left and the Left Coalition, as shown by the Party's ambivalence in the March 2021 Presidential Election, relations between the Workers' Party and the Left Coalition did gradually improve, with the Party formally beginning a Left Coalition member immediately following the March elections.

==Gradual Growth==
Since its formation, the Party has seen slow but steady growth, with the April State elections being the first election in the Party's history in which in contested at least a single race in every state, with new party branches being formed [[North]] and [[Jefferson]], though remaining generally minor factors. The May Federal elections additionally saw two new representatives elected on the Party's behalf, and rising WP star [[Rosa Berry]] coming close to beating established political insider [[Tedd Ddet]] in the District of Columbia's At-Large Congressional District.

The May Federal elections were also the first time in the Party's history in which it won a majority of votes in contested seats.

The '''Workers' Party''' is the newest formed far-left party, founded in January 2021. The party is known to host a range of left-wing members ranging from social democrats to communists. Though it has generally been interpreted as the successor to the then recently dissolved [[United Left]], the party was formed with a variety of members, including former prominent members of the [[Social Democratic Party]], such as [[Kevin]], and the [[Global Labour Party]]. The Party has seen its largest electoral success in the states of [[Dixie]] and [[Puerto Rico]]. The party is a member of the Left Coalition that has formed between the three big left parties.

Following the defeat of [[Michael Wazowski]] in the Dixie Senate and the continuing collapse of the United Left, Wazowski would make the decision alongside then United Left leader [[Ricca]] in forming a new party for members who did not feel as if they belonged to any of the other existing Left Coalition parties.

== Early Life ==

Ethan Koay was born in Bayamón, Puerto Rico, on the 9th of September, 1989. Both of his parents were immigrants from Singapore who'd moved in the 1980s in search of better opportunity in the then-flourishing Puerto Rico with an expanding labor market and ease of doing business. Due to his heritage, as well as his childhood on the island, Ethan was multilingual, fluent in Chinese and Malay, in addition to English, as well as Spanish, commensurate with the education in Puerto Rican public schools. His father had a career in clinical trials and development, helping start a small nonprofit to develop and produce medical equipment to local clinics and hospitals which did not have as easy access to the American pharmaceutical market due to Puerto Rico's divestment economy and domination by larger corporate players in the healthcare industry. His mother worked as a nurse for a local practice. In 2007, he graduated from Maria E. Rodriguez High School with Honors, moving on to the University of Puerto Rico, where he would be introduced into left-wing circles and active in local politics, volunteering for Senator Mike Gravel's 2008 presidential campaign.

== Union Work ==

In 2011, he graduated from the University of Puerto Rico with a Bachelors' Degree in Public Policy and a minor in Environmental Studies. While his studies led him to develop a passion for policymaking, he opted to lean on the things he'd learned in his energy-related courses, joining PREPA first as an intern and then as a representative for UTIER, one of Puerto Rico's largest energy sector unions, going on to work as a liaison between UTIER and PREPA for nearly a decade, in which time he developed strong connections with many local union activists and community leaders, becoming an important voice for the pro-statehood movement and a well-known advocate for strong environmental reform. After Hurricane Maria, he helped with recovery efforts, taking a more central role in PREPA's management in line with the organization's attempted reconstruction.

== Nomination to PR Energy Secretary ==

Though some minor controversy arose out of the Puerto Rican Branch of [[United Left]]'s expulsion of him due to his alleged involvement with the National Greens, which he maintains was solely an environmental policy based relationship, seeing as his work with community activists had him develop relationships with every local party, community leaders pushed for Governor Canmore to nominate him to lead the newly founded Department of Energy and Climate Change, which she accepted. Around the same time, he found success with the [[Global Labor]] Party, joining its Puerto Rico branch. The first few months of his tenure at the Department were instrumental, with the establishment of the Solid Waste Bureau, aiming to guarantee clean drinking water and energy to every Puerto Rican.

== Tenure Under Governor Prince ==

He eventually left the [[Global Labor]] Party to help start the Puerto Rican branch of the [[Workers' Party]], to which he would eventually be elected to the National Committee of; which led him to unsuccessfully pursue a surprisingly strong challenge to then-Senator [[Ian Bellinger]]. When Governor Prince was elected to succeed Layla Canmore, Ethan Koay was chosen to remain a part of the Puerto Rico Cabinet, under which he continued to work, giving him a reputation of being one of the [[Workers' Party]]'s most bipartisan members after having worked with two Administrations far to the right of his own political leanings. While he demonstrated an ability to work well with Governor Prince, he also demonstrated a willingness to stand often as the sole dissent in Prince's Governor Mansion, unsuccessfully challenging the Governor for House of Representatives and then becoming the first member of his Cabinet to publicly criticize him for the [[Medalgate]] scandal.

== Nomination to Secretary of Energy ==

President [[Christian Bo]] nominated him to the position of Secretary of Energy in his first Unity Cabinet, leaving Mr. Koay as one of the left-wing members and one of two [[Workers' Party]] of his center-right libertarian Administration. After being unanimously confirmed by the Senate in a bipartisan vote, he went on to eliminate much of the Energy Department's red tape and bureaucracy as well as strengthen the relationship between federal and tribal energy infrastructure.
