  • Remembering Guy Molinari (1928-2018)
    REMEMBERING GUY MOLINARI (1928-2018) For most Americans, the Holiday Season that begins with Thanksgiving and culminates on New Year's Eve is a time of celebration, reflection, and remembrance. Many thousands of Americans, in the Counting of their Blessings this year, will give Thanks to having had a Public Servant who made a positive impact on their lives and livelihoods. That person is former Congressman Guy Molinari, who departed this life on July 25 at the age of 89. If there is one word that comes to mind by those who had the privilege of having known Guy Molinari, that word is “Courage.” Courage is what Molinari exhibited when he joined the Marine Corps as a young man. At a celebratory stop at a bar in, ironically, Washington, D. C., en route to Basic Training at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, Molinari led his fellow recruits to walk out of that bar in protest of a racist bartender who refused to serve one of the young men in Molinari's group who was African-American. Once in the Corps, Molinari, armed with a Law Degree, stood up to superior Officers Indifferent or Hostile towards Justice. In the frozen fields of South Korea Molinari thus established a personal template that would guide him through the rest of his extraordinary life; he would be a champion of those falsely accused of wrongdoing. Molinari returned from the Korean War to his beloved Staten Island in 1953. It was there he turned to the practice of real estate law. The rule of law was a principle by which Molinari was raised; his Grand-parents had immigrated to the U.

General Counsel Federal Election Commission 999 E Street, N.W., 6th Floor Washington, D.C. 20463 Dear Mr. Noble: I' This complaint asserts that Dick Zimmer, Zimmer 2000, Maria Ch for Tax Reform, Megan Jencik, Jamestown Associates, Fox Media Consulting, Larry Weitzner and Tom Blakely violated the Federal Election Campaign Act (the "Act"), 2 U.S.C. $8 43 1 et seq., and related regulations of the Federal Election Commission ("FECI' or the 'lcommiiiion"), 11 C.F.R. $9 100.1 -et seq. Seeking the Republican nomination for Congress, Zimmer used an unregistered shadow organization to run attack ads against an opponent. These ads were prepared directly by his campaign consultants and were purchased by a woman who had worked on his staff weeks before the ads aired. In fact, this is the second time that a Zimmer campaign for Federal office has broken the law in this way. Nearly all of the personalities involved in this scheme were engaged in a virtually identical-one during Zimmer's failed 1996 campaign for Senate. Zimmer obviously views the direct use of outside group "soft money" as part of the normal business of campaigning. Having rece@ed/ the Republican nomination in this way, he will undoubtedly use similar tactics in the'general election. The Commission must take immediate action to punish and correct/ this illegal behavior. [0403 1 -0044/zimmercom laint 430 SOUTH CAhTd STREET WASHINGTON, D.C.

  • The Honorable Susan Molinari Oral History Interview Final Edited
    The Honorable Susan Molinari U.S. Representative of New York (1990–1997) Oral History Interview Final Edited Transcript January 8, 2016 Office of the Historian U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. “We all bring our experiences to a discussion, and there are all different experiences, and so I did take very seriously the experience of being a female and bringing that to the discussion. I was not one of those people—sometimes I would go up to somebody and say they did this, and they’d be like, ‘I am not going to be the female legislator.’ And I totally respect that, but that was not me; I was going to be the female legislator. If there was something that was going on that was ticking me off with regard to women, anyplace, I was going to be the female. So, I took that very seriously. There was a reason I was there.” The Honorable Susan Molinari January 8, 2016 Table of Contents Interview Abstract i Interviewee Biography i Editing Practices ii Citation Information ii Interviewer Biographies iii Interview 1 Notes 57 Abstract Raised in a political family, Susan Molinari’s relationship with her father, Congressman Guy Molinari, greatly influenced her road to Congress. As the only Republican on the city council of New York, and the daughter of a well-known politician, Molinari used her notoriety and experience to win a seat in the U.S. House. She made history as only the second daughter to directly succeed her father in Congress. Her youth and political lineage garnered the attention of the Republican Leadership and the respect of her colleagues.

  • Call Him Al, but Will He Reverse the Charges?
    Call Him Al, But Will He Reverse the Charges? New York Newsday - December 7, 1994 Call Him Al, But Will He Reverse the Charges? "Call me Al" is no joke anymore. Indeed, it has anew meaning. For, with the notable exceptions of Sen. Al D'Amato and Rep. Susan Molinari, the new Congress is an unmitigated disaster for our city. New Yorkers seeking to influence Congress will soon learn that a call to Al D'Amato or Sue Molinari is essential in order to penetrate the new leadership - now dominated by Congresspeople with Y chromosomes from the South and Midwest. In the House, Speaker-elect Newt Gingrich hails from Georgia and his two chief deputies, Majority Leader Richard Armey and Majority Whip Tom DeLay, are from Texas. New York City - along with the Northeastern states - does no better with the Democratic leadership. Dick Gephardt, the new minority leader, is from Missouri, David Bonior, the new minority whip, is from Michigan, and Vick Fazio, the party caucus chair, comes from California. New York City's only GOP representative, Susan Molinari, was successful in her quest to be vice-chair of the House Republican Conference. She is now the only city politician with any clout in the realigned Congress. Charles Rangel is now the second-ranking minority member on the House Ways and Means Committee, but he will have little influence with the new chair, Bill Archer of Texas. Moreover, New York City is about to lose two members of the powerful House Appropriations Committee, Nita Lowey and Jose Serrano, whose junior status makes them vulnerable to committee restructuring.

  • The Mayor As Mourner: He's on Victims' Side
    The Mayor as Mourner: He's on Victims' Side The New York Observer - August 5,1996 The Mayor as Mourner: He's on Victims' Side IS ANYONE BETTER THAN MAYOR RUDOLPH GIULIANI AT PINPOINTING VILLAINS? Let's give the Mayor credit. When Trans World Airlines flight 800 crashed, Mr. Giuliani and Police Commissioner Howard Safir went to Kennedy International Airport to assist the families and friends of the victims, it didn't take the Mayor long to realize that T.W.A. was doing little to relieve the anguish of the victims' families. While T.W.A.'s operatives went home to catch up on his sleep, Mr. Giuliani was at the airport all night. When Mr. Giuliani lashed out at TWA management for its slow response to the tragedy, he did so knowing that he had done everything he could to help the grief-stricken families. Unlike Gov. George Pataki, who prematurely claimed that divers had located dozens of bodies, Mr. Giuliani showed that he understands his role as a comfort giver, fellow mourner and advocate for the sick at heart. The Mayor's presence at the airport wasn't required - the plane, after all, went down over water, far beyond the city's boundaries but, as events demonstrated, he became an essential part of the story, an unofficial monitor of the massive, but vain, rescue effort. By the time Mr. Pataki and Senator Alfonse D'Amato arrived on the scene (in matching golf shirts), the only fall guy they could find was the Suffolk County medical examiner's office, which had arrogantly turned down offers of help.
