Congress may be a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability." These requirements are included in state law at Indiana Code 3-8-1-6(b). Q3: How does a person become a candidate to be chosen as a presidential elector in Indiana?

Leader (1918-2013), a native of York, Pennsylvania, rose from the anonymous status of chicken farmer's son and Gettysburg College undergraduate to become, first a State Senator, and then the 36th governor of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. A steadfast liberal in a traditionally conservative state, Leader spent his brief time in the governor's office (1955-1959) fighting uphill battles and blazing courageous trails. He overhauled the state's corrupt patronage system; streamlined and humanized its mental health apparatus; and, when a black family moved into the white enclave of Levittown, took a brave stand in favor of integration. -

March 9, 2021 The Honorable Ralph Northam Governor of Virginia P.O. Box 1475 Richmond, VA 23218 Re: Support to sign HB 1995 and HB 2332 into law Dear Governor Northam, On behalf of the 1-in-10 individuals in Virginia with one of the approximately 7,000 known rare diseases, the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD) urges you to sign House Bill 1995 (HB 1995) and House Bill 2332 (HB 2332) into law. HB 1995 will establish a Rare Disease Advisory Council (RDAC) to increase the rare disease patient voice in state government and HB 2332 will create a state-based reinsurance program to help strengthen the individual market. Both pieces of legislation will greatly benefit the rare disease community and we ask for your support by signing them into law today. NORD is a unique federation of voluntary health organizations dedicated to helping people with rare "orphan" diseases and assisting the organizations that serve them. We are committed to the identification, treatment, and cure of rare disorders through programs of education, advocacy, research, and patient services. We believe that all individuals with a rare disease should have access to quality and affordable health care that is best suited to meet their medical needs. HB 1995 will create an RDAC to increase the rare disease patient voice in state government and better understand their needs. The council will be tasked with conducting research and consulting with experts to make recommendations, improving access to health care and other services for individuals with rare diseases, understanding the impact of health insurance coverage, studying the impact of providing coverage under the state program for medical assistance, and publishing a list of publicly accessible resources. -

Ensuring That Every Child Has Access to an Equitable, World-Class Education
Ensuring that Every Child has Access to an Equitable, World-Class Education The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated the glaring and growing disparities in all areas of our community. This has been especially true in our public education system, which for too long has been underfunded and plagued by racial, socioeconomic and geographic inequities, despite Virginia being one of the wealthiest states in the nation. These inequities have disproportionately left students of color, students with disabilities, English language learners, and students in lower- income and rural communities behind. Virginia’s students and families need and deserve bold leadership that will tackle these challenges head on and move our Commonwealth forward. Education is rarely the first place leaders look to invest new dollars during a crisis, but Terry McAuliffe broke that trend as Virginia’s 72nd Governor when he fought Republicans and made a record investment of $1 billion in our K12 system, and he will do it again as our next Governor. Researchers estimate that by 2040, learning loss as a result of the pandemic for the current K-12 cohort will result in an earnings loss of $110 billion per year and will reduce overall gross domestic product by $173 billion to $271 billion per year1. Terry recognizes that recovering from this pandemic and rebuilding an economy in which all Virginians can prosper will require immediate, unprecedented investments in our education system and our future workforce. With better schools and workforce-ready students, Virginia can build the nation’s best workforce, and attract high paying jobs that boost our economy and our tax base. -

April 12, 2021 the Honorable Doug Burgum Governor of North Dakota
April 12, 2021 The Honorable Doug Burgum Governor of North Dakota 600 E. Boulevard Bismarck, ND 58505 Dear Governor Burgum, As organizations representing physicians, long-term care providers and hospitals, we, the undersigned, sincerely thank you for your leadership throughout the pandemic. As North Dakota’s infection rates climbed and deaths increased, you recognized that local control efforts were not enough and took charge by implementing stronger controls to stop the spread. We applaud you for placing health needs and saving lives before politics. We, the undersigned, oppose HB 1323, as it eliminates authority for the governor and state health officer when North Dakota needs it most – during a pandemic. Your leadership of implementing a state-wide mask mandate significantly reduced COVID-19 infections throughout North Dakota. Statistics show North Dakota went from a high of 11,301 current infections on November 14 to 4,758 infections on December 7 – a 58 percent reduction. During this same period, North Dakota’s 14 day rolling average of positivity went from 15.70 percent on November 14 to 9.79 percent on December 6. Your actions saved lives. North Dakota’s infection rates were the highest in the country. People were dying. The most vulnerable – the elderly and long-term care residents – became the highest COVID-19 war casualties. Although this group represented only 10 percent of infections, statistics show this group resulted in 60 percent of deaths. We lost mothers, fathers, grandparents and loved ones way too soon, leaving survivors to deal with war-torn scars. As we learned from experience, voluntary mask requests and localized mandates are not effective. -

The States of North Dakota, South Dakota, Nevada and Texas file this suit to compel the Administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“ Administrator ” or “ EPA ”), to take action mandated by the federal Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 7401 et seq. (the “ CAA ”) to designate areas of the country as attaining or not attaining the revised primary sulfur dioxide (“ SO 2”) National Ambient Air Quality Standard (“ NAAQS ”). On June 2, 2010 the Administrator signed and EPA promulgated the revised SO 2 NAAQS. See 75 Fed. Reg. 35,520 (June 22, 2010) (the “ SO 2 NAAQS ”). Once EPA sets a new or revised NAAQS, the CAA requires States to submit within one year to EPA information indicating which part of that State meets the new or revised NAAQS. 42 U.S.C. § 7407(d). Plaintiffs the States of North Dakota, South Dakota, Nevada and Texas each timely submitted to EPA their proposed designations. The CAA then establishes a nondiscretionary duty for the Administrator to designate all areas of the country as (1) “attainment” (if they are attaining the new or revised NAAQS), (2) “nonattainment” (if they are not attaining the NAAQS), or (3) “unclassifiable” (if there is inadequate information to make a designation). -

9 RHODE (DO NOT DELETE) 5/26/2021 9:12 AM LEADERSHIP IN TIMES OF SOCIAL UPHEAVAL: LESSONS FOR LAWYERS Deborah L. Rhode* This article explores the leadership challenges that arose in the wake of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic and the widespread protests following the killing of an unarmed Black man, George Floyd. Lawyers have been key players in both crises, as politicians, general counsel, and leaders of protest movements, law firms, bar associations, and law enforcement agencies. Their successes and failures hold broader lessons for the profession generally. Even before the tumultuous spring of 2020, two-thirds of the public thought that the nation had a leadership crisis. The performance of leaders in the pandemic and the unrest following Floyd’s death suggests why. The article proceeds in three parts. Part I explores leadership challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic and the missteps that put millions of lives and livelihoods as risk. It begins by noting the increasing frequency and intensity of disasters, and the way that leadership failures in one arena—health, environmental, political, or socioeconomic—can have cascading effects in others. Discussion then summarizes key leadership attributes in preventing, addressing, and drawing policy lessons from major crises. Particular attention centers on the changes in legal workplaces that the lockdown spurred, and which ones should be retained going forward. Analysis also centers on gendered differences in the way that leaders addressed the pandemic and what those differences suggest about effective leadership generally. Part II examines leadership challenges in the wake of Floyd’s death for lawyers in social movements, political positions, private organizations, and bar associations. -
