    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.

  • Levens to Improve Thornden Park
    THE NOTTINGHAM CONNECTION 3100 East Genesee Street Syracuse, New York 13224 SPRING 2010 Nottingham Commemorates World AIDS Day The Nottingham chapter of the Teen Aids Task Force (TATF) commemorated World AIDS Day by displaying several panels from the Syracuse NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt on December 1st. Each panel was made locally to commemorate a loved one lost to AIDS. The entire display filled a large part of the school li- brary. It included posters, pictures of TATF teens, and HIV Q&A. A panel was set up for students to sign their names and leave short messages. A “Common Threats” movie played in one corner of the room. The display was a collaboration between ACR and the Student Leadership Class, run by TATF advisor Janice Hammerle. Close to 400 people viewed the display. Levens To Improve Thornden Park Dorsey Levens (’89) visited the Greater Syracuse Chamber of Commerce in the fall of 2009 to discuss plans for improvements to Thornden Park. Dorsey, who retired as a football player for the Green Bay Packers, played for the Sherman Park Bulldogs in Thornden Park, the city’s second-largest park. He plans, through the Dorsey Levens Foundation, to make Thornden into the first “green” park in New York state by making sure all improvements are environmentally sound. Some of the areas needing improve- ments and repairs are the athletic field, basketball courts, tennis courts, and amphitheater stage. The goal is to restore the park to provide a safe place for children and adults to enjoy. Dorsey has rallied other SU greats including Jim Boeheim and Carmelo Anthony.
