Congress of the United States Washington, DC 20515
Congress of the United States Washington, DC 20515 June 14, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi Speaker of the House H-232, The Capitol Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Madam Speaker: We write today to urge you to fully reopen the House of Representatives. The positive impact of increasing vaccination rates and decreasing cases of COVID-19 are clear to see. Businesses are open, sporting venues and cultural institutions have welcomed back fans and visitors, and restrictions have been lifted. On June 11, Washington D.C. fully reopened and lifted the restrictions put in place to stop the spread of COVID-19. Unfortunately, the United States Capitol and the People’s House have failed to do the same. The Capitol remains closed to the American people and the House continues to maintain policies that run contrary to science of COVID-19. It is time for you to reopen the House and get back to serving the American people. Weekly case numbers in the United States have reached their lowest point since March of 2020 at the very start of the pandemic, and every day hundreds of thousands of Americans are being vaccinated. This also holds true for the Washington D.C. metropolitan area and the Capitol Hill community specifically. Over the last two weeks cases are down 36% in Washington D.C. and over 40% in both Virginia and Maryland. On Capitol Hill, no congressional staffer is known to have tested positive in weeks and no Member of Congress is known to have tested positive in months. This can no doubt be attributed to the institution’s steady access to vaccinations. -

Wisconsin State Legislature Decreases License Suspension for Non Safety-Related Monetary Judgements
For Immediate Release: February 18, 2016 Contact: Nichole Yunk Todd, 414-343-3581, [email protected] WISCONSIN STATE LEGISLATURE DECREASES LICENSE SUSPENSION FOR NON SAFETY-RELATED MONETARY JUDGEMENTS Madison, WI – Today, the Wisconsin State Assembly approved a bipartisan measure that will change the maximum length of a driver’s license suspension for failure to pay a forfeiture (“FPF”) from two years to one. The bill passed in the state senate earlier this month and is now headed to Governor Walker. According to Wisconsin Department of Transportation data, FPF suspensions represent nearly 60% of all reasons for license suspension or revocation in the state at over 235,000. The second highest category is only 12%. Two-year FPF suspensions are longer than many safety-related suspensions, including first and second offense Operating While Intoxicated (OWI), reckless driving, and the accumulation of over 31 demerit points within just one year. The courts will still collect what they are owed as defendants who have monetary judgements earn income. The Wisconsin Department of Revenue collected over $21 million dollars for the courts in 2014 through its efficient Tax Refund Intercept Program (TRIP). The authors of the bill include Senators Jerry Petrowski (R-Marathon) and Nikiya Harris Dodd (D- Milwaukee) and Representatives John Spiros (R-Marshfield) and Cory Mason (D- Racine). Senator Petrowski championed the effort: “This common sense bill will help make sure people can get to work so they can pay their debts and continue to support themselves and their families.” The bill was also endorsed by key system stakeholders as a way to better focus our limited resources, including the Wisconsin Chiefs of Police Association, Wisconsin Trial Judges Association, Wisconsin District Attorneys Association, Wisconsin Public Defender, and Wisconsin Insurance Alliance. -
