New Haven Free Public Library Board of Directors
Updated 10/11/2019 New Haven Free Public Library Board of Directors The Honorable Mayor, Toni N. Harp, ex-officio An abiding commitment to social justice steers New Haven Mayor Toni Harp’s career in public service. Her drive for inclusiveness, equality, and integrity is the byproduct of resonant, across-the-board life experiences. Toni was raised in Salt Lake City, the youngest of six children. Both parents worked to support the household; Toni’s tireless work ethic is a function of lessons learned from her parents. In the 1960s, Toni moved to the south side of Chicago to attend Roosevelt University. After she earned a degree in English she began working for the American Society of Planning Officials, launching a lifelong interest in urban planning and how cities work. From there, Toni was recruited to study at Yale’s School of Architecture where she earned a Master’s degree. Toni’s public service in elected office began first as a member of New Haven’s Board of Aldermen, and then for 21 years as state Senator for Connecticut’s 10th District. Toni is now the first woman ever to serve as Mayor of New Haven; she is presently serving her third term. Throughout her distinguished career, Toni’s policy priorities have never changed: • Full access to affordable healthcare, regardless of ethnic, cultural, or economic differences. • A responsive and effective public safety network working hand-in-hand with an equitable criminal justice system. • Maximizing opportunity for each individual student through public education, with particular emphasis on early childhood learning and development of reading skills.

China’s Great Leap Backward JAMES FALLOWS DECEMBER 2016 ISSUE | GLOBAL S I G N U P HAT IF CHINA IS GOING BAD? Since early last year I have been asking people inside and outside China versions of this W question. By “bad” I don’t mean morally. Moral and ethical factors obviously matter in foreign policy, but I’m talking about something different. Nor is the question mainly about economics, although for China the short- term stability and long-term improvement of jobs, wages, and living standards are fundamental to the government’s survival. Under China’s single-party Communist arrangement, sustained economic failure would naturally raise questions about the system as a whole, as it did in the Soviet Union. True, modern China’s economic performance even during its slowdowns is like the Soviet Union’s during its booms. But the absence of a political outlet for dissatisfaction is similar. Instead the question is whether something basic has changed in the direction of China’s evolution, and whether the United States needs to reconsider its China policy. For the more than 40 years since the historic Nixon-Mao meetings of the early 1970s, that policy has been surprisingly stable. From one administration to the next, it has been built on these same elements: ever greater engagement with China; steady encouragement of its modernization and growth; forthright disagreement where the two countries’ economic interests or political values clash; and a calculation that Cold War–style hostility would be far more damaging than the difficult, imperfect partnership the two countries have maintained.

Rhetorical Questions Who Will Win the Presidential Debates? What Does
The Atlantic | September 2008 www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2008/09/rhetorical-questions/306943/ Rhetorical Questions Who will win the presidential debates? What does each candidate’s use of words say about how he would govern as president? Can Obama’s rhetorical skills lift him to the heights of Lincoln, FDR, and Reagan—or will his speechmaking do him in? After watching all 47 (!) of the primary season’s debates, our correspondent has the answers—and some harsh criticism for the moderators. by James Fallows . Recently I did what no sane person would: I watched the entire set of presidential primary debates, in sequence, like a boxed set of a TV show. In scale this was like three or four seasons’ worth of The Sopranos. The Democrats had 26 debates, nearly all more than one hour long, and all but one of them with both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. The Republicans had 21, if you count the session for which a single “debater” showed up. That was the NAACP forum in Detroit, which all eight Democrats but only Representative Tom Tancredo of the Republicans agreed to attend. I had seen only two of the debates in real time because so few were carried internationally. Those that were available in streaming video were too slow and jerky to be watchable in China, where I’ve been living. (It eventually took more than two weeks of round-the-clock Internet downloading to collect all the files.) I had read many of the transcripts and much of the resulting coverage, but had not been part of the shared viewing experience of getting to know the candidates through the drawn-out series of live encounters.

An Economic Impact Study
Transforming a Region with Local Share Gaming Revenue: An Economic Impact Study 2009 - March 2016 prepared by: Photographer: Mark Fainstein THE IMPACT OF GAMING FUNDS IN ERIE COUNTY “What is notable in Erie’s case is the way the community has decided to use its share of the casino revenues. It’s different from what we’ve seen any place else, and I think it deserves attention.” National correspondent for The Atlantic, James Fallows Erie County is at a crossroads. Thousands of residents have been laid off from its once largest employer. The poverty rate is four percent higher than the state average; the unemployment rate of young people under age 25 is three times higher than the national average. Residents are fighting to save Erie’s public schools, countywide rural communities, small- and medium-size businesses, and its waterfront urban center. In the transition from its historic manufacturing base, local leaders, citizens, and investors have recently begun harnessing Erie’s strengths and forging a more advanced, more globally competitive economic future—and local share gaming revenue is playing a key role in that transformation. Since 2008, the Erie County Gaming Revenue Authority has strategically invested more than $44 million of gaming funds in inner-city renewal, business growth, education, neighborhood and municipal innovation, and community and cultural assets. ECGRA’s transformational investments of local share gaming revenue are bolstering the economy and fueling a renaissance in ways never anticipated. ECGRA has also successfully engaged like-minded business, nonprofit, education, and government leadership in Erie County and is a meaningful partner and active investor in the community’s future.

Psychological Reflections on Barack Obama and John McCain: Assessing the Contours of a New Presidential Administration STANLEY A. RENSHON On 20 January 2009, either Barack Obama or John McCain will place his hand on a bible, swear to uphold and defend the Constitution, and become the forty-fourth president of the United States. The new president will immediately become responsible for the issues on which he campaigned, those that he ignored but for which he will nonetheless be held accountable, and all those unanticipated issues for which he will also be expected to de- vise solutions. Naturally, a new president and administration raise many questions. What will the successful candidate really be like as

October 10, 2017 an Open Letter to the Congress on Dreamers from America's Mayors Dear Members of the U.S. House of Representa
October 10, 2017 An Open Letter to the Congress on Dreamers from America’s Mayors Dear Members of the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate: We write on behalf of the nation’s mayors to urge you to quickly pass bipartisan legislation that would enable Dreamers – people who have lived in America since they were children and built their lives here – to earn lawful permanent residence and eventually American citizenship if they meet certain criteria. We pledge to work with you in this effort and to do whatever we can to assist you in seeing it enacted into law. This June at the 85th Annual Meeting of The United States Conference of Mayors, we adopted strong policy supporting permanent legal status for Dreamers and extension of the DACA program. We did this because it is the right thing to do – for Dreamers, for our communities and for our country. DACA has benefitted nearly 800,000 undocumented youth since it began in 2012. With work authorization and without the fear of deportation, these young people, who have done nothing illegal, have been able to participate in and contribute to our country, our cities and the nation’s economy: • Eighty-seven percent of DACA recipients are employed by American businesses, and six percent have started their own businesses, leading to higher wages and better economic outcomes. • DACA recipients contribute 15.3 percent of their wages to taxes, which fund Social Security and Medicare, and DACA recipients are investing in assets like houses, and starting new businesses, bringing significant tax revenue to cities and states.

THE TEST TRUMP FAILED James Fallows
THE TEST TRUMP FAILED James Fallows American presidents run for office with a set of promises, visions, and ideas of what they’d like to do if they win. For John Kennedy, it was to “get America moving again.” For (my one-time employer) Jimmy Carter, it was creating “a government as good as its people.” For Ronald Reagan, it was (no joke) “let’s make America great again.” For Bill Clinton, it was the economy, stupid. For Barack Obama, hope.1 Then life intervenes. And while campaign promises and concepts have some bearing on what a president actually does, events that campaign strategists never anticipated often play a larger role in how effective a president can be, and in history’s assessment of him. Kennedy didn’t know that he’d be responsible for the Bay of Pigs invasion three months after taking office, or the Cuban Missile Crisis 18 months later. Lyndon Johnson didn’t know that he’d end up as president a year after that, nor Ronald Reagan that he’d be shot, nor George W. Bush about the events that began on September 11, 2001, nor any other president about the surprises, usually bad, that the world’s unplannable variety suddenly presents them with. A disproportionate amount of what we remember about presidents has to do with how they respond to the unforeseen—either instinctively, as with Reagan’s jaunty joking as doctors tried to save him from John Hinckley’s attempted assassination, or with thought-out deliberation, as with Johnson’s (positive) decision to use the tumult of the mid-1960s as propulsion for the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965, or his (negative) step-by-step immersion into the disaster of the Vietnam war.
