There will be about 55 people in the audience all are affiliated with the American Health Care Association (AHCA). AHCA is a federation of 11,000 long-term care providers, mostly nursing homes. The association also publishes Provider magazine. The group will be interested in hearing your views and predictions on health care reform, in general. More specifically, they will want to hear how long-term care will fit into the overall reform. Last month, you reintroduced your "Secure Choice" bill, along with Senators Packwood, Durenberger, and Simpson. This bill is almost identical to the long-term care bill you introduced in the 102nd Congress. AHCA has reacted very favorably to the bill, particularly in its creation of a public/private partnership to help with the purchase of private long-term care insurance. I have attached a copy of your floor statement on "Secure Choice" and a brief summary of the bill. The Chaf ee bill that was introduced this week includes two portions of "Secure Choice": The standards for long-term care insurance -- of ten known as consumer protection standards -- based on the National Association of Insurance Commissioners' model; and tax clarifications to make long-term care insurance premiums deductible. In all likelihood the group will want to know if long-term care will be addressed through health care reform. Of course, no one knows for certain, but health care reform will probably address the delivery and financing of acute care first. The hope is that Congress will have success in controlling costs and increasing access on the acute care side first and then can use this as a model for long-term care. In the interim, "Secure Choice" goes a long way toward improving access to long-term care and putting long-term care services within the financial reach of many more seniors.

    BLACK POLITICS IN NORTH CAROLINA A CASE STUDY OF THE SECOND CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF ATLANTA UNIVERSITY IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY BY ZAPHON R. WILSON DEPARTMENT OF POLITICAL SCIENCE ATLANTA, GEORGIA MAY 1990 \~\ ~ \ 1 ABSTRACT POLITICAL SCIENCE WILSON, ZAPHON R. B.A. APPALACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY, 1976 M.A. APPALACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY, 1978 BLACK POLITICS IN NORTH CAROLINA: A CASE STUDY OF THE SECOND CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT Adviser: Dr. William H. Boone Dissertation dated May, 1990 An important characteristic of contemporary research on black political participation in the United States has been its emphasis on black electoral behavior. Few studies, however, have examined in detail the impacts of political structure on black electoral behavior or the influences of the Good Government Movement, known as Progressive Reform, in the south on black politics. This study examines black politics in the Second Congressional District in North Carolina. The purpose of the study is to examine how black political activity is influenced by government structure on the local, state and congressional levels. Case studies were conducted of two congressional campaigns in 1982 and 1984, respectively, and one state senate campaign in 1985. Each candidate was interviewed along with representatives from four black political 2 organizations in the study area. These case studies reveal several points regarding black politics in the Second Congressional District and how structure, particularly the Second Primary Run-off, effects black candidates. By the same token, race is still an important concern in elections in the study area.

  • CREATING the MODERN SOUTH: POLITICAL DEVELOPMENT in the TAR HEEL STATE, 1945 to the PRESENT by DANIEL PAUL MENESTRES KARI FREDE
    CREATING THE MODERN SOUTH: POLITICAL DEVELOPMENT IN THE TAR HEEL STATE, 1945 TO THE PRESENT by DANIEL PAUL MENESTRES KARI FREDERICKSON, COMMITTEE CHAIR GEORGE C. RABLE LISA LINDQUIST DORR DAVID T. BEITO GORDON E. HARVEY A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2011 Copyright Daniel Paul Menestres 2011 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT This dissertation describes the process of political development in North Carolina during the twentieth century. Beginning with the creation of the “solid South” in the early twentieth century, North Carolina’s unique one-party system featured a spirited rivalry within the Democratic Party that was largely absent throughout the South. The political rivalry between conservative and progressive Democrats profoundly influenced the course of North Carolina’s political development. Following the Second World War, the interaction between state and national politics played a significant role in the development of the state’s two-party system. By the end of the twentieth century, a competitive two-party system supplanted one-party politics. Historians have written extensively about political development in the twentieth-century South, but there are few state-specific studies focusing on political change in the modern South. Using manuscripts, newspapers, and interviews, this dissertation traces the process by which one southern state gradually cast aside one-party politics and developed a strong, competitive two- party system. As such, this research provides insight into the development of two-party politics in the modern South.

  • Shaw Vs. Reno and the World of Redistricting and Representation
    DIVISION OF THE HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY PASADENA, CALIFORNIA 91125 SHAW V. RENO AND THE REAL WORLD OF REDISTRICTING AND REPRESENTATION J. Morgan Kousser :$' � a: 0 1891 I.I- -:>� v SOCIAL SCIENCE WORKING PAPER 915 February 1995 SHAW V. RENO AND THE REAL WORLD OF REDISTRICTING AND REPRESENTATION J. Morgan Kousser Abstract Justice O'Connor's majority opinion in the 1993 U.S. Supreme Court case of Shaw v. Reno has widely been seen as withdrawing judicial protection of minority voting rights -- a welcome development to those who believe as a matter of faith that discriminatory electoral rules, racist appeals in elections, and racially polarized voting are things of the distant past, but less hopeful to close students of redistricting and election campaigns of the last two decades. Deeply ambiguous, the opinion has spawned a wide range of interpretations, from assertions that it bans redistricters from taking the race of voters into account at all, even when they place them in majority-white districts, to contentions that il merely asks for further information about the basis for establishing certain "ugly" districts that have majorities of African­ Americans or Latinos. In Lhis paper, which is based on research that I carried out for Shaw v. Hunt, the remand version of Shaw v. Reno, and Vera v. Richards , its Texas counterpart, I try to restore a sense of re ality to the often factually incorrect assertions or implications of Justice O'Connor's opinion, not only by a close textual reading of the briefs and opinions in the Supreme Court case, but also by looking in considerable detail at the actual redistricting processes in North Carolina and Texas during the 1970s, 80s, and 90s.
