Doctor Abena Tau was appointed as Secretary of the Interior in President Spock’s administration on the same day as peace was declared at the end of the Borg War.
Brought on board to juggle the requirements of the new stresses of the Federation, Tau has been behind projects such as Earth-Share and other operations to take care of both homeless citizens and to focus on the lonely colony planets. She has found extensive opposition amongst the more military members of the Cabinet in fighting for funding for internal matters, particularly in housing problems, and in attempting to ensure that those on non-Sol planets haven't been ignored and marginalised.
An avid supporter of returning autonomous governing power to the independent species on Earth, Doctor Tau has been seen as one of the most influential people in the government when it comes to looking after the rights and wishes of the individual. However, some view her as not recognising the dangers of the bigger galaxy. Her public defence has always been that it is her place to fight for the more liberal internal issues tooth and claw, and permit the President to consider the balancing act that needs to be played between individual interests.
