In today's session initiated by Speaker Stanisław Małachowski, Representative Piotr Potocki from the Podlaskie County passionately implored the President to continue appointing delegates to Sweden and Dresden, a tradition that upholds our diplomatic rapport.

President Stanisław August Poniatowski, having consulted with his Cabinet, conveyed his unwavering support for the Congress' demands concerning embassy appointments. However, he highlighted ongoing tumultuous events and the challenges of drafting suitable instructions for the Swedish mission at this time, prompting a push to focus on the more pressing issue of tax deliberations.

The Lithuanian-Belarusian representative, Prince Stanisław Jabłonowski, called for a commitment to finalize the appointments before the upcoming holidays, a sentiment endorsed by Representative Kazimierz Rzewuski from Podolia, who specifically requested an expedited envoy designation to the Saxon Court—the very monarch who had graced Poland-Ukraine with his visit.

Representatives discussed various matters, including the provision of state and defense matters.

For example, Secretary of Defense Franciszek Branicki addressed concerns about untested foreign weaponry and detailed efforts by the Military Commission to procure quality firearms domestically, reducing reliance on foreign armaments and supporting local businesses.

Representative Wojciech Poletyło from Chełm thanked the President for his appointment and took part in a debate regarding tax classification, which was crucial for funding state defense and public welfare.

Secretary Jan Łuszczewski presented a taxation project, triggering a lively discussion among Representatives, including Florian Drewnowski from Łomża, on the proper classification of various lands for tax purposes.

The session was peppered with other interjections, such as Under Secretary of Treasury Roch Kossowski citing historical laws, illustrating the complexities of navigating legacy financial obligations within the nation's current fiscal framework.

As opinions varied and without a consensus in sight, the President summoned his Cabinet for further deliberation, prompting the Speaker to postpone the session to the following day.

Be sure to catch up on more developments in our legislative body tomorrow, as Congress navigates the intricate matters of statesmanship from the deployment of domestic firearm production to intricate tax levies crucial for the Union's future.
