  • Congressional Scorecard 109Th Congress 2 0 0 5 - 2006
    IRANIAN AMERICAN POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE Congressional Scorecard 109th Congress 2 0 0 5 - 2006 Please visit us on the web at www.iranianamericanpac.org About IAPAC IAPAC is a registered bipartisan political action committee that contributes to candidates for public office who are attuned to the domestic concerns of the Iranian American community. IAPAC focuses exclusively on domestic policy issues such as civil rights and immigration, and it encourages Americans of Iranian descent to actively participate in civic affairs. Mission • To support and promote the election of candidates for federal, state and local office, regardless of party affiliation, who are attuned to the domestic needs and issues of the Iranian American community • To support and promote Iranian American participation in civic affairs Issue Advocacy Civil Liberties: Balancing Civil Liberties and National Security in the Post-9/11 Era. Protecting our security and ensuring that the government does not infringe upon basic constitutional rights have long been important issues for civil libertarians and certain ethnic communities. IAPAC believes that our government must take the appropriate measures to protect our nation from further atrocities, but that it can do so without eliminating basic constitutional rights. Immigration: Immigration reform that is driven by proper national security concerns and remedies based on a fair and accurate appraisal of deficiencies in the immigration process, and not simply on national origin. Specifically, IAPAC advocates for a fair and measured execution of federal regulations governing the issuance of non-immigrant and immigrant visas for Iranian nationals. Congressional Scorecard The IAPAC 2005-2006 Congressional Scorecard rates members of Congress on votes and other positions taken in the House of Representatives and the Senate in the 109th Congress, which affect the domestic needs of the Iranian American community.

  • Prevention of Biothreats: a Look Ahead
    Center for Biosecurity of UPMC Prevention of Biothreats: A Look Ahead SUMMARY REPORT OF SPEAKER PRESENTATIONS AND PANEL DISCUSSIONS Prepared by the staff of the Center for Biosecurity of UPMC On October 6, 2009, the Center for Biosecurity of UPMC convened a one-day conference, Prevention of Biothreats: A Look Ahead, in Washington, DC. The conference was hosted in collaboration with the Commission on the Prevention of Weapons of Mass Destruction Proliferation and Terrorism, and it was funded by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. This meeting convened nearly 200 government officials, congressional staff members, policy analysts, scientists, health leaders, and members of the media to discuss strategies for countering biological weapons threats. During the conference, participants discussed a wide range of U.S. government programs, international approaches, and non-governmental efforts aimed at preventing the development and use of biological weapons, including: arms control and multilateral agreements; efforts to prevent the unlawful acquisition of materials, equipment, and information; deterrence, intelligence, and surveillance; and improving resiliency to biological attacks as a means of dissuasion and prevention. Given the wide range of activities and professional groups engaged in biothreat prevention efforts, it is rare for the entire community to convene as a single group. This meeting accomplished that—the first step toward generating promising new ideas and directions for biothreat prevention and promoting greater coherence in the biopreparation community. This summary report was prepared by the staff of the Center for Biosecurity of UPMC to provide a synopsis of each day’s panel discussions and individual presentations. We invite you to visit the conference website, where you will find videos of the day’s discussions along with the conference agenda, speaker bios, the attendee list, and background readings: www.upmc-biosecurity.org/preventionconf.
