  • Mitchell Ceasar Attorney and Politician
    Mitchell Ceasar Attorney and Politician Over the years, Kingsborough Community College has had many students graduate and go on to pursue their careers at other schools. Mitchell Ceasar graduated from KCC in 1973, and since graduating he has become very successful. Ceasar now owns his own law firm out in Plantation, Florida, and he is also involved with politics. But before all of this, in 1971 Ceasar was a young man who lived in the Mill Basin area in Brooklyn. That summer he had just graduated from James Madison High School, and he was ready to pursue further education in college. Ceasar had applied to numerous colleges such as Queens College and other four-year institutions, but he felt that KCC was a better fit for him at the moment. “I felt that going to KCC would give me a better basis. I thought educationally, I was a late bloomer, and therefore it would allow me the window to kind of come into my own, and better prepare me for a SUNY university and for law school,” said Ceasar. Ceasar was history major at KCC and he also minored in political science. His first year here went very smoothly, but it did take him some time to adjust. He did his school work, and school work only during his first semester. When his second semester came along Ceasar became more involved with the schools activities like the school newspaper, Scepter. “Because it was a new place I found it quiet intimidating to go to college from high school. Once I took the step to getting more involved with the school, everything else came a lot easier.

Butler May, 2016 iv ABSTRACT Selling Mexico highlights the importance of Cancún, Mexico‘s top international tourism resort, in modern Mexican history. It promotes a deeper understanding of Mexico‘s social, economic, and cultural history in the late twentieth century. In particular, this study focuses on the rise of mass middle-class tourism American tourism to Mexico between 1970 and 2000. It closely examines Cancún‘s central role in buttressing Mexico to its status as a regional tourism pioneer in the latter half of the twentieth century. More broadly, it also illuminates Mexico‘s leadership in tourism among countries in the Global South.

  • Waltz Florida Dems PPP Letter (/Uploadedfiles/Waltzsba FDP PPP)
    October 8, 2020 The Honorable Hannibal “Mike” Ware Inspector General U.S. Small Business Administration 409 3rd Street SW Washington, D.C. 20416 Dear Inspector General Ware: The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) was designed to provide a direct incentive for small businesses to keep their workers on the payroll. Congress intended the program to provide relief to America’s small businesses quickly, and demand for the program was extraordinary: PPP lenders approved more than 1.6 million loans totaling more than $342 billion in the program’s first two weeks, according to your office.1 The Small Business Administration subsequently released data that shows a political organization may have taken advantage of the program’s expedited nature to obtain funds for which they were ineligible. Specifically, the data show a Democrat-affiliated political organization in Florida applied for and received PPP funds, contrary to the intent of Congress that the program should support small businesses, non-profits, veterans’ organizations, and tribal concerns. The Small Business Administration issued regulations that specifically prohibit “businesses primarily engaged in political or lobbying activities” from receiving PPP loans.2 Despite this restriction, the Florida Democratic Party (FDP) applied for and received a PPP loan worth $780,000.3 The details of the FDP loan application raise serious questions as to whether the applicant intentionally misled the Small Business Administration in order to obtain PPP funds. FDP filed its application under the identity of a non-profit organization called the “Florida Democratic Party Building Fund, Inc.” The Florida Democratic Party Building Fund, Inc. is a separate legal entity from the Florida Democratic Party, but Florida state records show the party formed the not-for-profit corporation in April of 2019 to construct, own or operate “the headquarters of the state executive committee of the Florida Democratic Party and related political organizations.”4 Documents show the Florida Democratic Party Building Fund, Inc.
