ACPP
Commonly known as the "Bird Lobby," the Avian Coalition for Progressive Policies (ACPP) is a political advocacy group dedicated to advancing the interests of avian citizens within Waldonia and beyond. Established in the aftermath of the Waldonian Political Reformation, the ACPP presents itself as a broad coalition of like-minded birds working to promote equality, representation, and social justice for all species. Their stated goals include advocating for avian-friendly urban planning, expanding legal protections for feathered communities, and fostering cross-species cooperation in governance.
Despite its emphasis on progressive policies and inclusion, the ACPP remains one of the most controversial and enigmatic organizations in Waldonian politics. While the group officially operates as a lobbying entity and policy think tank, little is known about its internal leadership structure. Critics point to its opaque funding sources, its ability to secure high-level appointments for avian officials, and its rumored influence over key governmental decisions. Some believe the ACPP’s reach extends far beyond mere advocacy, alleging that it holds an unspoken yet undeniable stranglehold over the political establishment. Detractors argue that the coalition’s true goal is not integration, but rather the eventual re-establishment of Birdonia, the failed avian-led state that once overtook Widdlington.
Supporters of the ACPP dismiss such claims as baseless, reactionary, and rooted in anti-avian sentiment. They argue that the idea of a secretive “bird agenda” is little more than conspiratorial fear-mongering designed to delegitimize a movement fighting for equal representation. However, with the increasing prominence of avian officials in government and the perceived bias of pro-bird legislation, questions continue to swirl about just how much influence the ACPP truly wields—and whether Waldonia’s future is, quite literally, for the birds.
