Major Elizabeth Kieran of the New California Republic Army supply corps provides aid to NCR Squatters living in Freeside in the year 2281.
Background
Major Kieran is leading a mission to provide food to citizens of the New California Republic who live in Freeside. As a member of the NCR's supply corps, Kieran has been giving handouts to proven NCR citizens but has been running into trouble with local Freesiders.[1] Originally, Kieran was going to oversee a relief effort that would've benefited both NCR citizens and Freesiders, but because the envoy sent to The King that was meant to coordinate this was brutally beaten and nearly killed; following this incident, the relief mission got scrapped by the Supply Corps' commanding officers. But Kieran was not deterred and still got clearance for the mission, but with reduced supplies and support.[2]
She would like to have friendly relations with the Kings, as shown by her willingness to send an emissary to The King, but men like Pacer have prevented this from happening.[3][4] And because of the envoy incident, Kieran is strapped for supplies to hand out, and is also unwilling to hand out supplies to Freeside locals.[2] Though, she will sneak an extra ration to citizens if they have a friend that's a Freeside local.[5]
Relationships
Major Kieran is a friend of Julie Farkas and is the reason that Kieran likes the Followers of the Apocalypse, unlike other members of the NCR who may not see eye-to-eye with the group.[6][7]

Elizabeth Kieran: "In a manner of speaking. Our envoy was brutally beaten, and only barely survived. My superiors ordered the relief mission scrapped. I managed to get clearance to carry out the mission anyway, but with greatly reduced support. Now there's not enough supplies to go around even if I wanted to serve the rest of Freeside, which I don't.

Elizabeth Kieran: "No, I'm afraid we don't. Do you have a friend you wanted to bring in?"

Elizabeth Kieran: "You know Julie? Not everyone in the NCR sees eye-to-eye with the Followers, but they're okay in my book, mostly because of her. If you really want to know, we sent an envoy to the King offering to coordinate the relief effort."

Julie Farkas: "Only a little. A friend of mine, Major Elizabeth Kieran, has been handing out supplies to the poor a little west of here. What about it?"
