Ian Bellinger (born June 9th, 1980) is an American politician who currently serving as the U.S. representative for Jefferson's 4th congressional district, as well as Chair of the Federal Reserve, and Chief of Staff to the President. He has previously served as the Vice President of the United States, Speaker of the House of Representatives, the First Secretary of the Commonwealth of Jefferson, among other high-profile positions in the Federal and State Governments.

Personal Life

Initially from the state of Jefferson, Ian practiced law in Denver before moving to Puerto Rico. Back in September 2017, Ian led hurricane disaster relief and rebuilding efforts on the island as a result of Hurricane Irma. He had previously referred to Puerto Rico as the "second home" in his heart, before moving there permanently in 2020.

Bellinger served as Vice President of the United States under President Christian Bo and President Howard Elkridge. He is the longest-serving Vice President post-2018 to date.

Bellinger was later nominated and confirmed to the Federal Reserve.

In the January 2022 Federal Election, Ian Bellinger ran and successfully beat then-incumbent Representative Tulsi in his return to Congress. Moreover, Ian Bellinger was one of nine Libertarian-Republican Party affiliated Representatives to be elected to Congress, thus giving the Libertarian-Republican party a majority. As the Liberty Caucus' candidate, Ian Bellinger became the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, defeating then-incumbent Speaker Epsilon Leclair.

During his Speakership, Bellinger was also elected to the Dixie General Assembly, where he later became the Majority Leader. His term in the Dixie General Assembly would come to an abrupt end with his election as Senator, representing the State of Dixie. In this session of Congress, he was elected as President Pro Tempore of the United States Senate, as a member of the Deputy PPT Caucus—a caucus consisting of former Presidents and Vice Presidents of the United States.

After a brief hiatus following his second senatorial term, during which Bellinger returned to his hometown of Denver, Jefferson.

In a tweet, Bellinger cited that his office was "been taking an incredible number of calls from Jeffersonians who say the left is once again in the process of abandoning them and their Commonwealth to ruin." Moreover, that "When the going gets tough, Global Laborites and their allies choose to jump ship with almost a hundred million passengers still on board. Not on my watch—I've chosen to return to my hometown of Denver, Jefferson to say that 'I’m in.'"

Bellinger subsequently filed to run in a special election following the resignation of then-First Secretary Freedom4All, as well as two other Global Labourites in the legislature. The Libertarian-Republican party swept those elections, and immediately upon their swearing-in, Bellinger—with the support of his caucus—moved to elect John Smith as Speaker of the Parliament and elect himself as First Secretary. Following more than a day of inaction, and citing "an absentee Parliament for more than half the term," Bellinger stood in front of the Speaker's chair and began presiding over an immediate vote to suspend the rules and continue with his previous motion.

The motion would be supported by a majority of the Parliament, and the question was agreed to. Then-First Secretary Ryuki Henderson and Speaker Koko were removed from their positions, with Bellinger and Smith being installed. During his term as First Secretary, Bellinger was viewed as one of the most influential and impactful leaders of that period. He took control of what was an inactive government, passing nine articles of his own legislation, and over a dozen executive orders and directives, displaying a true show of the potential held within the role of First Secretary. As First Secretary, he also led the charge against the New Commerce Amendment sponsored by Representative Devon—a Global Labourite nominated by the Sysadmin Administration to the cabinet. Together with Governor Wonder of Dixie, they proposed and enacted a compact to establish the West-South Congress between Jefferson and Dixie—a Congress to discuss matters of shared concerns related to federal encroachment and make recommendations to coordinate political and legal strategy in defense of the 10th Amendment.

Later, Bellinger chose not to seek re-election to the Parliament, yielding to the newly-elected Parliament and Governor to "continue the prosperity of the Commonwealth." He would continue to serve in the newly-minted administration of President Valerie. On December 24th, 2022, Bellinger was appointed Chair of the Federal Reserve by President Cabin Fever, continually serving as a Governor of the Federal Reserve since his appointment by President Elkridge in November, 2021.

Later in the new year, Bellinger announced that he would be seeking a return to Congress, to represent the fourth Congressional District of Jefferson.
