    Write to Washington – Ok, but How?

    Write to Washington – ok, but how? Things are heating up in Washington, and overseas Americans have a great deal “on our plate”. One FAWCO objective is to expand the membership of the new Americans Abroad Caucus, but there are exciting initiatives under way regarding voting reform, alongside concerns with respect to transmission of citizenship and taxation of overseas Americans… We will regularly be encouraged to write to our Washington representatives, urging them to support legislation that directly affects us living abroad. When we do, it would be wise to keep a few things in mind: Communicating with your Elected Officials Tips On Telephoning Your Elected Representatives Email is great but it’s very effective to pick up the phone! If you do so to call a Congressional office, immediately give your name, say that you are calling from abroad but that you are a voter in X district, and ask for the staffer responsible for … (taxation, foreign relations, voting, etc.). Remember that it is staffers who research and write legislation: never underestimate the staffers! Ask to speak with the aide who handles the issue about which you wish to comment. Even Congresspersons not on a tax committee, for example, will have someone who is familiar with tax issues… Don’t feel bad if you get a voicemail box - leave a brief message, such as: "Please tell Senator/Representative (Name) that I support/oppose (S.___/H.R.___)." You will also want to state reasons for your support or opposition to the bill. Ask for your Senator's or Representative's position on the bill.

The region has suffered for decades from extreme poverty, population migration, and an eroding economic base. Federal programs tend to be inflexible, and local communities are often unable to meet the requirements these programs entail. We are looking at deeply rooted problems that require high-level answers.

    COMPLAINT BEFORE THE FEDERAL ELECTION CBHMISSIOAl INTRODUCTXON - 1 The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee ("DSCC") 7-_. J _j. c files this complaint seeking an immediate investigation by the 7 c; a > Federal Election Commission into the illegal spending A* practices of the National Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee (WRSCIt). As the public record shows, and an investigation will confirm, the NRSC and a series of ostensibly nonprofit, nonpartisan groups have undertaken a significant and sustained effort to funnel "soft money101 into federal elections in violation of the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971, as amended or "the Act"), 2 U.S.C. 5s 431 et seq., and the Federal Election Commission (peFECt)Regulations, 11 C.F.R. 85 100.1 & sea. 'The term "aoft money" as ueed in this Complaint means funds,that would not be lawful for use in connection with any federal election (e.g., corporate or labor organization treasury funds, contributions in excess of the relevant contribution limit for federal elections). THE FACTS IN TBIS CABE On November 24, 1992, the state of Georgia held a unique runoff election for the office of United States Senator. Georgia law provided for a runoff if no candidate in the regularly scheduled November 3 general election received in excess of 50 percent of the vote. The 1992 runoff in Georg a was a hotly contested race between the Democratic incumbent Wyche Fowler, and his Republican opponent, Paul Coverdell. The Republicans presented this election as a %ust-win81 election. Exhibit 1. The Republicans were so intent on victory that Senator Dole announced he was willing to give up his seat on the Senate Agriculture Committee for Coverdell, if necessary.

    John Stroud Oral History

    Arkansas Supreme Court Project Arkansas Supreme Court Historical Society Interview with Justice John Stroud Little Rock, Arkansas November 7th, 2013 Interviewer: Ernest Dumas Ernest Dumas: This is November 7th, 2013. This is Ernie Dumas and I’m at the Little Rock home of Judge John Stroud at the Round River Condominiums in Little Rock. Judge, I need to ask your permission for the David and Barbara Pryor Center for Oral and Visual History and the Arkansas Supreme Court Historical Society, which will have ownership of this tape, to use it on the web or in the archives or whatever. John Stroud: You have my full permission. ED: OK. JS: And this isn’t my home. I have lived for a long time and still do in Texarkana, Arkansas. ED: Yes. JS: But this was my abode during the Court of Appeals and I’ve just kept it. ED: And so for convenience sake today. JS: Right. ED: Rather than my driving down to Texarkana we’re doing this here in Little Rock. JS: Right, absolutely. ED: Well, Judge, you had a long, long career not only in the law but in a lot of other civic activities, but we’re going to concentrate on your life and the law and the courts. Let’s start with your birth. When and where you were born and your momma and daddy. 1 JS: I was born on October 3, 1931, in Hope, Arkansas. My father was John Fred Stroud. He went by Fred and I’m the junior. ED: The F in your name is Fred as well? JS: Yes, but I go by John.

    Ranking Member John Barrasso

    Senate Committee Musical Chairs August 15, 2018 Key Retiring Committee Seniority over Sitting Chair/Ranking Member Viewed as Seat Republicans Will Most Likely Retain Viewed as Potentially At Risk Republican Seat Viewed as Republican Seat at Risk Viewed as Seat Democrats Will Most Likely Retain Viewed as Potentially At Risk Democratic Seat Viewed as Democratic Seat at Risk Notes • The Senate Republican leader is not term-limited; Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) will likely remain majority leader. The only member of Senate GOP leadership who is currently term-limited is Republican Whip John Cornyn (R-TX). • Republicans have term limits of six years as chairman and six years as ranking member. Republican members can only use seniority to bump sitting chairs/ranking members when the control of the Senate switches parties. • Committee leadership for the Senate Aging; Agriculture; Appropriations; Banking; Environment and Public Works (EPW); Health Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP); Indian Affairs; Intelligence; Rules; and Veterans Affairs Committees are unlikely to change. Notes • Current Armed Services Committee (SASC) Chairman John McCain (R-AZ) continues to receive treatment for brain cancer in Arizona. Senator James Inhofe (R-OK) has served as acting chairman and is likely to continue to do so in Senator McCain’s absence. If Republicans lose control of the Senate, Senator McCain would lose his top spot on the committee because he already has six years as ranking member. • In the unlikely scenario that Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) does not take over the Finance Committee, Senator Mike Crapo (R-ID), who currently serves as Chairman of the Banking Committee, could take over the Finance Committee.

    Testimony by Congressman Mike Ross Fourth Congressional District of Arkansas

    Testimony by Congressman Mike Ross Fourth Congressional District of Arkansas United States Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Field Hearing “FEMA’s Manufactured Housing Program: Haste Makes Waste” April 21, 2006 Thank you for having me here today, and I appreciate the opportunity to discuss the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the manufactured homes at the Municipal Airport here in Hope, Arkansas. I would like to thank Chairwoman Susan Collins and Senator Mark Pryor for inviting me to join you today. Hurricane Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast on August 29th, 2005. Our hearts and prayers go out to all the people that were drastically impacted as a result of this storm, who lost their home and literally everything they owned. I grew up in this area in Prescott, Emmet and Hope, and graduated in this very city from Hope High School in 1979. It is with great disappointment that I remind you it has been almost eight months since Hurricane Katrina, yet over 10,000 brand-new, fully furnished manufactured homes remain parked in a hay meadow at the Hope Municipal Airport, over 450 miles from the eye of the storm while thousands remain homeless. The situation at the Hope Airport is a symbol of the mishandlings of this disaster by this Administration and by FEMA Shortly after Hurricane Katrina, FEMA selected the Hope Airport because of the old World War II Army airport facility at this location. They wanted to use the inactive runways, taxiways, and tarmacs as a FEMA staging area. The original purpose was to store manufactured homes purchased as temporary housing for displaced families before they were sent to the devastated area.
