After graduation he would continue his education at Harvard University before becoming a lawyer at the non-profit [[Refugee and Immigrant Center for Education and Legal Services]] (Commonly known as RAICES) in Austin, Texas. Dedicated to solving issues of immigration in Texas, Wazowski would argue many cases but stopping short of reaching the Supreme Court. After the success in his position at RAICES, Wazowski was offered multiple positions both in the non-profit and for-profit industries.

==Entry into Politics==  
==State Assembly and Cabinet==
Being involved in non-profits, Wazowski became interested in a career in public service, with many ideas on how he can better work for the people, he began exploring options into the political sphere. With being well known in the state of [[Dixie]], Wazowski made the decision to join the [[Libertarian party]] and run for office for the [[Dixie State Assembly]].
===State Cabinet===
As an entry into politics, Wazowski would come to meet then Dixie Governor [[Sandoval]] who would offer Wazowski, then a member of the Libertarian Party (now the Libertarian-Republican Party), the position Secretary of Health and Human Services. Coming into the position at the height of COVID-19 pandemic, overseeing the Governor's mandated response and ensuring compliance. Although Wazowski's time in the the cabinet would be short as he would be make the decision to run for the Dixie State Assembly.  


Taking on incumbent [[Kevin]], a then-member of the [[Social Democratic Party]], Wazowski would win the election in an upset, as he was seen as an under dog contender being relatively unknown in the political scene of Dixie, only holding a seat in the Governor's Cabinet where he had yet to accomplish anything.
===Dixie State Assembly===
Seeing an opening for his chance to advance his career, Wazowski would make the decision to challenge the incumbent Kevin, then a member of the former SDP, to his seat in DX-2. With no experience other than his short tenure in the State Cabinet, Wazowski would win his election beating out the incumbent in a close race. Wazowski would start his time off slow, passing no bills, which he would be hit on during his next run. During his first term he would find himself disgruntled with the LRP before departing and running for re-election as an independent. Beating 4 other members, he would and start his second term. During the second term he would be elected to state Speaker half way through the term after then Speaker Bo would resign to focus on his newly elected Vice President position.  


Taking over during the height of [[COVID-19]], Wazowski would join the Governor's Coronavirus Task Force and assist in bringing assistance and support to combat the virus that was plaguing the state. His time in the cabinet would be a relatively short ride as Wazowski would get elected to the General Assembly representing Dixie's 2nd district. Joining under first term Governor and current US President Sandoval, Wazowski would have a very quiet start to the Assembly, releasing only a single bill before the session ended.
===Third State Assembly Term===
Rejoining the Libertarian Party (now the Libertarian-Republican Party) Wazowski would cruise to a third win after a successful and productive 2nd term. Returning to the Assembly again, Wazowski would find himself in the majority, gaining bipartisan support for his re-election to the state Speakership. During this session, Wazowski would oversee one of the most bipartisan times in the Assembly's recent history. With the session concluding with large friendships. Wazowski would of course depart the LRP once more and remain an independent until the last few days of the Assembly where he would form the Workers' Party.


At the start of his time in the Assembly, Wazowski would begin as a Libertarian. Unsure of his true political identity and after going through issues within the party with other members, he would leave becoming an independent. One of the only independents in the Assembly, his vote became a swing vote in a primarily Libertarian dominated Assembly. Although no longer in the party, his relationship with the party would continue. Wazowski would also have a brief stint with the former [[United Left]] party that once had a hand in Dixie politics. During his time as a United Left member, Wazowski would enter for a chance to represent Dixie's 4th district in the United States House of Representatives. With a lackluster performance and basic neglect of his race, he would lose to SDP's [[Glaze]], before ending his time in the United Left and become an Independent again.  
==House Of Representatives==
===First Term===
Wazowski would make the decision to run for the House of Representatives.  


==Second Dixie Assembly Term==  
==Honors==
After his failed political campaign for United States House, Wazowski would reflect on his political future as an independent and where he would go from his loss. During this time, Wazowski's first term would come to an end in the Dixie State Assembly and his political future would come in to question once again as he begins his campaign for re-election. 
Wazowski was awarded the Presidential Citizens Medal from President Bo on July 8th, 2021.
 
During his re-election campaign, Wazowski would not be supported or partnered with any major parties, although it can be said the [[Libertarian Party]] was silently supporting him after their candidate was not properly supported in the race to unseat him. Defending his seat, he would take on SDP's [[Ethan Mathias]], Libertarian's Lili, former Assemblyman [[John Smith]] and independent Ryan. He would win with 39% of the vote in what Wazowski has stated as his "toughest race" during his early days of his career.
 
During this time, the Assembly would see many changes. With then Speaker of the Assembly [[Aegeus Phoenix]] withholding the vote on an amendment to enshrine abortion rights into the constitution, the Assembly was forced to remove Phoenix in favor of Assemblyman Christian Bo. During this time, Wazowski would take a much more active role in the Assembly, being appointed Speaker Pro Tempore and releasing a slue of bills, becoming the most active member of the assembly during this session. Also during this time, the [[Dixie Secessionist Plot]], as it became know, would come to fruition throwing many prominent members of the Assembly and state cabinet into the light with accusations of attempting an overthrow in the state and leaving the union. With the Assembly immediately launching an investigation into the allegations, their report would shine light into the situation. With Wazowski deciding that then Lt Governor and Assemblyman Phoenix's role in the group being malicious, he would attempt to expel Phoenix with the support of the then United Left's [[Jess Reed]]. The vote would be defeated in a 2-5 vote, handing Wazowski a huge defeat in his career.
 
Half way through this session, then Governor Omarosa Sandoval would be elected to President of the United States alongside the Assembly Speaker Bo as Vice President. With Bo in his new position, he would make the decision to relinquish his post as Speaker, paving the way for Wazowski to become Speaker of the Assembly. With Christian Bo now Vice President and a vacancy in the Senate, Wazowski would see himself passed up for an appointment to the Senate by then Lt Governor turned Governor Phoenix. With the Assembly at odds with the new Governor, the remaining session was expected to be a rocky time before the unexpected resignation of Phoenix only days into his term, paving the way for Governor [[Drunk]] who had just been confirmed as the Lt Governor of Dixie.
 
==US Rep, Third Assembly Term and Senate Run==
 
As time continued, an unexpected resignation of Jess Reed would see a chance for Wazowski to finally make his way into the United States House of Representatives. After losing his first race to the House, Wazowski was hesitant to make another attempt at getting into the House. At the time a member of the Libertarian-Republicans, he would be encouraged to take the chance setting up a battle that would become Wazowski v. Drunk for the House. After a lackluster performance from Drunk in the race, Wazowski would coast to a comfortable victory into the House.
 
During his time in the House, Wazowski would end up the only member of the Libertarian-Republicans in the House and would find himself quickly shunned from activities. After submitting a bill for farmer relief during COVID-19, the left majority of the time would snub the bill not even putting it up for consideration in committees. The bill would go on to die on adjournment leaving Wazowski completely unaccomplished during his time in the House, something that would not go unnoticed in future races. 
 
During this time in the House, Wazowski would come down to the choice of staying in the State Assembly or moving on. With two terms under his belt and the incumbent state Speaker, Wazowski was unsure if he felt he needed to stay within the Assembly or move on. With a bit of encouragement and support for a second term as the State's Speaker from members on both sides, he would make the decision to rally for another term. Facing off once again against former Representative Kevin and former Representative Rat Randy, Wazowski would edge out and defeat both of them for what would become his final term in the State Assembly. After a bit of haggling, he would earn support to become Speaker of the Assembly for his final term.
 
As he took over during the middle of the term, Wazowski would have to make a decision on running once again for the House or accepting a challenge for the Senate in the state of Dixie. With support once again from the Libertarian-Republicans, Wazowski would make the decision to join the Senate in hopes of replicating the success of his good friend Christian Bo, who would go from Senator to the Vice President. With his challenger being [[Jeb!]], Wazowski was facing someone known for his heavy legislative ability and would be his most serious challenge yet. Wazowski would go on to lose the election in relatively close battle against two popular Dixie politicians, spelling the end of Wazowski's time in politics with his retirement on the horizon for the State Assembly.
==Formation of the Workers' Party and Later Years==
 
Coming off a failed bid for Dixie Senator, losing in a tight race against then US Representative [[Jeb!]], Wazowski would make the decision to once against depart the Libertarian-Republican party, citing personal differences and ideological issues with the future of the party. During this same time, the former party the [[United Left]] would be near a total collapse, with not even enough members to fill the party structure, Wazowski would invite Puerto Rican state legislator [[Ricca]] to assist in forming what would become known as the [[Workers' Party]]. Seen as the successor of the United Left, the party would see itself forming shortly after the disbanding of the United Left. With Wazowski leading the charge in the party, he would be elected to the first Workers' National Council and take a major role in the early days of the party.
 
Wazowski would see the party through many ups and downs, coming out of retirement when the party needed members to run. As the Workers' Party would find itself in a position without support, Wazowski would see himself challenging incumbent Randy Wilson for his seat in the House of Representatives. After a solid campaign and debate performance, Wazowski would be upset at the ballot box when he would suffer a major upset against Wilson, after many publications saw him as the winner of the showdown.
 
During that time Wazowski would be relatively quiet, passing up an opportunity to lead NASA under the Bo Administration before running once again and losing in the House of Representatives, this time to a relative newcomer Bacon. After the race, Wazowski would accept a position as the United States Attorney for DC, where he would oversee notable criminal cases such as The United States v [[Dan Reinhard]].
 
Wazowski is currently the First Secretary of the Workers' Party and a United States Attorney. He currently has no plans to re-enter politics outside of his Attorney position.
