  • Separate Interests to National Agendas Hispanic-American Members of Congress in the Civil Rights Era, 1945–1977
    Separate Interests to National Agendas hispanic-american members of congress in the civil rights era, 1945–1977 In June 1952 two long-running but often dissimilar paths of Hispanic-American congressional history converged, if only for a moment. At issue was the transformation of Puerto Rico from a colonial territory to a U.S. commonwealth. Under Puerto Rico’s proposed constitution, the island’s new government, the Estado Libre Asociado (Free Associated State or ELA), would be linked to the U.S. mainland by matters involving foreign affairs, but its authority to govern locally would be enhanced. Congress initially approved the concept, but quickly split over a constitutional human rights provision that had wide support among the Puerto Rican people. In the U.S. Senate, one faction sought to establish Congress’s ability to approve or reject amendments to the island’s constitution, essentially stripping Puerto Ricans of sovereignty.1 One such advocate bluntly argued that Congress essentially had the option to “give them a constitution or not give it to them.” Dennis Chavez of New Mexico, on the other hand—often that chamber’s lone proponent for boosting Hispanic civil rights—pushed back: “The Puerto Ricans did not ask us to take [their political rights]; we took them,” he said. In areas of the world where the U.S. was then working to contain the spread of communism, including in the Caribbean Basin, Chavez noted that America’s efforts would be aided by treating Puerto Ricans with more equanimity.2 Chavez’s intervention in the debate foreshadowed an important trend in this era—the increasing cooperation among advocates for Hispanic issues on a national scale.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE For further information please contact: Larry Woldt (703) 893-1550 THE CONSERVATIVE CAUCUS CALLS FOR A BALANCED • BUDGET AND TAX CUTS F. Andy Messing, Executive Director of The Conservative Caucus CTCC), today said, "Contrary to what some in government would like us to believe, the people of this country demand a balanced budget and tax cuts." -v: r.'T' Speaking at a joint press conference in the Capitol with Congress man Samuel Devine, Chairman of the House Republican Conference and a member of TCC's National Advisory Board, Messing added, "Earlier this year The Conservative Caucus launched our 'Tax Reduction Action Plan' (TRAP). One aspect of that program was a nationwide petitior^^drive. Today we are proceeding to send President Carter more than 40,000 peti tions collected by The Conservative Caucus from angry taxpayers nation wide. I think it is appropriate that we are taking this action on April 15. The American people are tired of footing the bill by paying higher taxes and higher prices to quench the appetite of Members of Congress and an Administration that refuses to put a lid on federal spending, clean up a bloated bureaucracy and eliminate the over-regulation of our free enterprise system—the real causes of inflation." Messing continued, "At the same time of the petition drive TCC was polling more than 33,000 taxpayers from all over America asking them whether they wanted to 'increase', 'maintain' current levels; or 'decrease' government control over the spending of their tax dollars in 15 separate issue areas.

  • Responders' Manual
    PHILIPPINE NATIONAL POLICE MANUAL RESPONDERS’ MANUAL CHAPTER I BACKGROUND GENERAL – The Philippine National Police is mandated to enforce the law, maintain peace and order, protect life and property, ensure public safety with the active support of the community. The patrol elements composed of the foot and mobile patrols are the most ubiquitous members of the force and are synonymous to police presence. They are the ones who almost always arrive first at the scene of the crime in response to calls for police assistance. Being the “First Responders,” it is imperative that patrol officers are able to identify violations of law, bring criminals to justice, collect and preserve pieces of evidence, and assist in the prosecution of offenders. 2. PURPOSE AND SCOPE Purpose - This First Responders Handbook provides guidance for patrol officers and other members of the force who respond to the scene of a disaster or other emergency as enumerated in the succeeding pages. It assists them in establishing on-scene command, formulating a situation estimate, alerting others to the condition of emergency, and guides them what to do and how to do it when faced by specific situations. Scope - The handbook discusses the policies, procedures, measures and safety considerations governing the commitment of police patrols in the interest of public order and safety. The procedure should be applied where possible to offenses and situations listed. A modification of some procedures may be necessary because of particular circumstances, however, most will apply in a majority of cases. 3. THINGS AND EQUIPMENT A MOBILE CAR SHOULD HAVE Radio - exclusive channels, call sign, etc Siren Notebook, pen, etc Megaphone/ PA system Photo equipment Hand cuff Whistle Fingerprint equipment Reports format (Traffic accident report, Tech Inspection Report, etc) j.
