Importance: High Had a long call with Matt Wald, who, as you know, is far more fluent in power plant technology than I am. He was making the case that besides the closed mountaineer plant in WV, CCS has never really been demonstrated. While there are some projects being built, they are not yet operational, and therefore not “demonstrated.” I gave him my best arguments, but I did not make a sale. Since he missed the meeting(s) with Gina over past day or two, it might be worth your while to have Gina or some other senior person call him ASAP to walk him through how the standard meets the adequately demonstrated test. Also, he will be talking to AEP in ~ 45 minutes. Dan Weiss Daniel J.

  • March 8, 2016 President Barack Obama the White House
    March 8, 2016 President Barack Obama The White House Washington, DC 20502 Dear Mr. President: At the most recent meeting of the President’s Interagency Task Force to Monitor and Combat Trafficking (“PITF”) in early January, we were pleased to see the progress reported by those departments and agencies across the federal government with responsibility for coordinating efforts to combat trafficking in persons. In particular, we applaud that the PITF marked the first convening of the U.S. Advisory Council on Human Trafficking. At the close of the meeting, Ms. Tina Tchen, Executive Director of the White House’s Council on Women and Girls, challenged those in attendance to feel the “fierce urgency of the remaining 12 months” to cement the President’s legacy by making “as broad and as deep a commitment” as necessary to combat trafficking in persons. Like Ms. Tchen, ATEST and the Freedom Network believe the Administration is poised to realize important gains against human trafficking in the U.S. and overseas. We request that you consider the following key priorities during the final year of the Administration, which are further described in the attached document. 1. Implement Nationwide In-Person Registration Program for Domestic Workers: In October of 2015 the Department of State launched a pilot program to conduct in- person registration of A-3 domestic workers in Washington, DC. We are pleased that the pilot program, also outlined in the Federal Strategic Action Plan on Services for Victims of Human Trafficking in the United States, is now underway and ask that full nationwide implementation of the program be completed within the year.

  • The Obama Administration Threatens Unborn Life
    The Obama Administration Threatens Unborn Life Even prior to his election President Obama had established a record that some called the “most pro-abortion” of any candidate or President. Since taking office his record has solidified this distinction: Mexico City Policy: January 23, 2009 – In one of his first executive actions, President Obama lifted the ban on U.S. funding for international health groups that perform abortions, promote legalizing the procedure, or provide counseling about terminating pregnancies.1 Embryonic Stem Cell Announcement: March 9, 2009 – President Obama signed an Executive Order to lift restrictions on human embryonic stem cell experimentation.2 Conscience Rule: March 10, 2009 – Obama administration published its proposal to rescind and eliminate the conscience-protecting regulations passed by the Bush administration in January 2009.3 Plan B access expanded to 17 year-olds: April 22, 2009 – FDA accepted rather than appealed a federal judge’s order that lifted Bush administration restrictions limiting over-the-counter sales of “Plan B” to women 18 and older. One of “Plan B’s” way of acting is to prevent implantation of a newly conceived embryo, i.e., “Plan B” can kill unborn children.4 NIH unveils new human embryonic stem cell experimentation funding guidelines: July 7, 2009 – The new Guidelines provide an incentive for continued destruction of human embryos, to provide new hESC lines for federal taxpayer funding.5 Abortion/Reproductive Rights language changes in international meetings: March, 2009 – Overall international organization language changes, in particular on definition of reproductive rights and reproductive health. Began to be evident at the UN Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) in March, 2009 and continued through until present.6 FAMILY RESEARCH COUNCIL June 2012 801 G STREET NW, WASHINGTON, D.C.
