  • 1605026 NY Spotlight Memo
    ! MEMORANDUM TO: Interested Parties FROM: Alixandria Lapp, Executive Director, House Majority PAC DATE: May 26, 2016 RE: Congressional Democrats Poised for Pick-Ups Across the Empire State With just over a month until New York’s June 28 congressional primaries, and just under six months from the November general election, Democrats are poised for significant pick-ups in congressional districts across the Empire State. This year Democrats are overwhelmingly on offense in New York – with at least six Republican held seats that could be flipped this November. Multiple Republican incumbents and challengers are finding their already-precarious political prospects diminishing even further as they struggle with a damaging party brand, a toxic presidential ticket-mate, and increasingly prove themselves out of touch with their own districts. Bottom line: With New York’s congressional Republicans increasingly vulnerable heading into the fall, Democrats are overwhelmingly on offense and well-positioned to win key districts across the state in 2016. New York Republicans Tied to Toxic Brand As in any presidential year, down-ballot races will be heavily shaped by the top of the ticket. For Republicans, particularly in New York, that’s bad news. Even before the GOP presidential race took shape, New York’s congressional Republicans faced significant structural political challenges. In six competitive Republican-held districts, President Obama either won or came within 1% of winning in 2008 and 2012. Now with Donald Trump as their presidential ticket-mate, down-ballot prospects for New York Republicans are far worse. Earlier this month, a poll by Morning Consult found that nearly half of all Americans would “be less likely to support candidates for public office if they say they back Donald Trump.” And despite Donald Trump’s big win in New York’s presidential primary, there’s no indication that it will translate to success in November.

    Welcome to the 2016 PNWA Annual Convention Dear PNWA Members, Welcome to Vancouver, Washington and to our 2016 Annual Convention! It has been a busy year in the Northwest, with a lot of activity at our ports, terminals and along our waterways. This is great news for our region and for PNWA, as we continue our successful advocacy for policies and projects which support economic development and the environment. I am pleased to report that our association continues to grow, welcoming nine new members this year. These new members are adding to our strength here in the region and in Washington, DC. A strong, diverse, vocal membership like we have at PNWA is so important as we look ahead to a new Administration, the usual uncertainty in federal funding, a changing regulatory climate, and much more. 2017 will be an incredibly important year for this group. With the coordinated efforts of our membership, from Southern Oregon to Northern Washington and all along the Columbia and Snake Rivers to Idaho, we are well positioned to navigate these challenges and opportunities. It continues to be my great honor to be the President of this uniquely successful organization, and I look forward to the next year with confidence that we will continue to succeed. Thank you for attending this week, and please enjoy the conference. Captain Paul Amos Columbia River Pilots President, PNWA Dear PNWA Members, It is a pleasure to welcome you to our 2016 Annual Convention. I would like to extend my thanks to the Port of Vancouver for helping us host this year’s event.

Duke Energy and Boeing are also on this list despite these entity’s public declarations in January aimed at their customers and shareholders that were pausing all donations for a period of time, including those to members that voted against certifying the election. The leaders, companies and trade groups associated with these PACs should have to answer for their support of lawmakers whose votes that fueled the violence and sedition we saw on January 6. The Sedition Caucus Includes The 147 Lawmakers Who Voted To Object To Certifying The 2020 Presidential Election, Including 8 Senators And 139 Representatives.

  • Letter to Congressional Black Caucus
    December 4, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker of the House Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives H-232, U.S. Capitol H-204, U.S. Capitol Washington, DC 20515 Washington, DC 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader McCarthy: As members of the Congressional Black Caucus, we want to thank you for your efforts to ensure access to health care for patients and to ensure that physicians and specialists around the country have been able to continue operations during this pandemic. However, we are becoming increasingly concerned about looming cuts facing many specialists, which are expected to go into effect beginning on January 1, 2021. On December 1, 2020, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ (CMS) published the final rule for the CY2021 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule, which increased rates for the office-based evaluation and management (E/M) code set in CY2021. Due to the requirement for budget neutrality, this will result in sizable cuts for over thirty healthcare specialties. While we are supportive of the increases for the office-based E/M code set, the resulting cuts are ill-conceived in the middle of a pandemic. Even without these cuts, too many practices are struggling, even as patients need access to health care now more than ever. We are aware of solutions to either waive budget neutrality requirements (H.R. 8505) or to hold specialists harmless (H.R. 8702). While not perfect, either of these solutions would give healthcare specialists the financial security they need to weather the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • Candidates for Federal Office for US Senator Christopher S Murphy Matthew Corey Richard Lion Jeff Russell for US Representative
    Candidates for Federal Office For US Senator Christopher S Murphy Matthew Corey Richard Lion Jeff Russell For US Representative District 1 John Larson 1. In light of documented attacks on our election systems, would you vote to require and fund all states to replace paperless electronic voting machines with voting machines that use and count paper ballots? Yes. Congress has a responsibility to uphold the integrity of our elections. That priority is neither Democratic, nor Republican – it is an issue that is central to our democracy. That is why I have supported and voted for past legislation to establish a grants program for state and local governments to make backup paper ballots available in case electronic voting machines break down. In addition to paper ballots, nonpartisan election officials should have an audit of these ballots to confirm election results. Citizens should feel confident that their vote will be counted. 2. How will you ensure access to medical care and affordable health insurance with reasonable benefits for all Americans? By fighting back against the sale of junk insurance and protecting those with pre-existing conditions. We must move beyond trying to repeal the ACA and towards improving access to affordable care. That’s why I introduced the Medicare Buy-In & Health Care Stabilization Act (HR 3748) along with Congressman Courtney, to allow Americans ages 50-64 years old to buy into Medicare. Experts have looked at the data and found a 60-year-old could save 40 percent on premiums with a Medicare Buy-In compared to a Gold plan on the marketplace today.
