    November 24, 2020 President Donald J. Trump The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Mr. President: We write to once again convey the urgent need for federal resources in New Jersey to improve testing capacity. The coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) continues to reach record highs; case rates in November are surpassing even our highest rates from the spring. On November 23, New Jersey reported 3,592 new COVID-19 cases and 11 new deaths. State- wide case totals are over 300,000 and confirmed deaths will soon surpass 15,000 people. New Jersey’s hospitals are also experiencing record admissions. On November 23, 2,785 hospital beds were filled with COVID-19 patients; 522 of those patients were in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU); and 265 of those in the ICU are currently breathing via a ventilator. We commend New Jersey for taking swift action to address this latest surge. The state has more than 2,300 contact tracers working to help mitigate the spread of infection. Governor Murphy has also signed an Executive Order limiting indoor gatherings to 10 people, requiring masks indoors, issuing travel restrictions, and urging social distancing. Despite the state’s best efforts, the positivity rate for COVID-19 testing currently averages about 10 percent. As you know, experts suggest anything over a five percent positive testing rate requires urgent containment and mitigation efforts. However, containment and mitigation efforts rely on sufficient testing capacity to ensure that cases are being quickly identified and New Jersey is once again facing extended lines at testing locations and turn-around times for results becoming longer by the day.

  • Andy Kim Touted Himself As President Obama's “Point Man”
    HIT: Andy Kim touted himself as President Obama’s “point man” on Iraq issues at the White House. While working for the Obama administration, he attended meetings with terrorists including one of the leaders responsible for an attack at the US Embassy in Baghdad, and a senior member of the Muslim Brotherhood. BACKUP: Kim joined the State Department in 2009 as an Iraq expert: • Kim joined the State Department in 2009 as an Iraq expert. “Kim joined the Obama administration in September 2009 as an Iraq expert at the State Department. In 2011, he spent five months in Kabul in a civilian role advising two commanders of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, first Gen. David H. Petraeus and then Gen. John Allen.” (Salvador Rizzo, “Obama adviser running for Congress claims he also worked for Bush,” Washington Post, 9/10/18) Kim was the Iraq Director on Obama’s National Security Council from 2013 until leaving the administration in August 2015: • Kim was the Iraq Director on Obama’s National Security Council from 2013 until leaving the administration in August 2015. “Kim was director for Iraq issues at the Pentagon for five months in 2013 and then was Iraq director on Obama’s National Security Council for two years until leaving the administration in August 2015.” (Salvador Rizzo, “Obama adviser running for Congress claims he also worked for Bush,” Washington Post, 9/10/18) Kim was Obama’s “point man” on Iraq issues while serving in the National Security Council, a credential he has boasted about on the campaign trail: • The Flat Hat: “Kim served at the White House between 2013 and 2015 as Director of Iraq, where he was responsible for managing the crisis response across the Administration and developing strategy.” (Emily Martell, “Andrew Kim Discusses ISIS, Future Of Conflict In Iraq,” The Flat Hat, 11/10/16) • Kim noted he was the Obama Administration’s point man in 2014 as ISIS was gaining ground in Iraq.

  • Asian Americans in the Running: Andy Kim
    Published on Hyphen Magazine (https://hyphenmagazine.com) Home > Asian Americans in the Running: Andy Kim Asian Americans in the Running: Andy Kim Franny Choi - November 2, 2018 Andy Kim is drawing on his South Jersey roots to appeal to voters, as his opponent Tom MacArthur faces ongoing criticism for his votes on health care and tax reform. (Photo courtesy of andykimforcongress.com.) In the lead-up to the midterm elections, Hyphen is profiling a handful of Asian American candidates in key races. Be sure to catch up on our coverage of Texas's Gina Ortiz Jones [1] and Arizona's Anita Malik [2]. KEY PLATFORM STANCES: Reform taxes to give permanent cuts to the middle class Expand affordable health care, including protections for people with preexisting conditions Hold monthly town hall meetings New Jersey’s 3rd District is home to the Trump administration’s biggest ally in the state’s congressional delegation: Representative Tom MacArthur. MacArthur, who won his district by a 20-point landslide in the last election [3], worked with President Trump both to try to repeal the Affordable Care Act and to pass the GOP tax bill. Now, the Republican incumbent’s track record on those issues may cost him his House seat — and Andy Kim, a former White House national security advisor, seems prepared to take his place. Kim is running for elected office for the first time, but he’s no stranger to national politics. He served as both a strategic advisor to General Petraeus in Afghanistan and as a counterterrorism advisor in the White House under President Obama.

  • Albio Sires 1951–
    H CURRENT HISPANIC-AMERICAN MEMBERS H Albio Sires 1951– UNITED STATES REPRESENTATIVE 2006– DEMOCRAT FROM NEW JERSEY “I am in a good position for New Jersey and my district,” Albio Sires told a Newark reporter in 2009. With seats on powerful committees overseeing the interests of his busy upstate district, Sires has been able to champion transportation and immigration issues that hit close to home. As he said, “You’re always trying to help your constituents.”1 Image courtesy of the Member Albio Sires was born on January 26, 1951, in Bejucal, Cuba. His family fled Fidel Castro’s government in 1962 and settled in West New York, New Jersey, where his parents, who had a grade school education, worked in the factories. He graduated from West New York’s Memorial High School in 1970 and earned a bachelor’s degree from St. Peter’s College in Jersey City in 1974. Sires returned to his old high school to teach Spanish and English as a Second Language, coaching the basketball team after classes. In 1985 Sires received a master’s degree in Spanish from Middlebury College in Vermont. He is married to Adrienne Sires and has a stepdaughter, Tara Kole.2 In his first bid for public office, Sires ran as a Democrat for mayor of West New York in 1983, losing to longtime incumbent Anthony DeFino. Three years later he ran as a Republican for New Jersey’s 14th U.S. Congressional District seat held by Democrat Frank J. Guarini, Jr. Sires lost that year, but New Jersey Governor Thomas Kean soon hired him to improve the communication between his administration and the Hispanic community.

  • April 10, 2020 the Honorable Philip D. Murphy
    April 10, 2020 The Honorable Philip D. Murphy Governor of the State of New Jersey Office of the Governor Trenton, NJ 08625 Dear Governor Murphy: We write to request critically needed funding for Warren, Sussex, Hunterdon, and Salem Counties that was appropriated to New Jersey through the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. As you are aware, these counties, and their respective municipalities, did not receive federal funding through Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) and Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) set forth in the CARES Act utilizing long-standing, unchangeable, and automatic formulas. These formulas were set into place under the Administration of President Gerald R. Ford, in 1974 and 1977. Warren and Sussex Counties, along with Hunterdon and Salem Counties, did not meet any of the three criteria of these automatic, predetermined federal formulas: 1) counties with at least 500,000 people; 2) cities with populations more than 50,000; or 3) “principal cities,” which is a Census formula designation. That said, beyond the set formulas which are out of our control, the State of New Jersey also received certain non-entitlement funding through the CDBG (more than $4 million) and ESG (more than $11 million) programs that you can allocate based on discretionary need throughout the State, particularly to help struggling municipalities that did not receive enough relief. We believe these counties meet that requirement and ask that you please immediately allocate the discretionary funding to these localities. These four counties remain in the so-called “hot” region of the outbreak in our State and need this critical funding to get through the challenging next weeks and months.

  • TO: Interested Parties FR: Dan Sena, DCCC Executive Director DT: April 3, 2018 RE: Take It Back: Democrats Have Clear Advantage in New District Polls
    TO: Interested Parties FR: Dan Sena, DCCC Executive Director DT: April 3, 2018 RE: Take it Back: Democrats Have Clear Advantage in New District Polls It’s game time. Month by month, week by week, primaries will produce battle-tested and uniquely qualified Democratic candidates. And vulnerable House Republicans will be forced to face reality: According to a sample of newly released polling data from a wide variety of districts, Democrats are poised to take back the House. Since the start of the cycle, the grassroots backlash against the Republican agenda has been fierce. Each day since, President Trump and Speaker Ryan’s Congress have given voters motivation to organize, fight, and win. Voters are fighting to take back respect, stability, affordable healthcare, economic security, and a safe and stable future for both their parents and their children. While motivations vary, the American people will keep marching, protesting and ultimately voting to take back the House. The DCCC has built the largest battlefield in modern history – over 100 districts and counting. We invested in the grassroots, local organizers, and robust voter contact earlier than ever before. Most importantly, we recruited and empowered Democratic candidates who fit their districts and have records of service to their communities and our country that resonate with voters. These Democrats are running deep into the battlefield, and their candidacies are breathing new energy into the party. These Democrats’ strength as campaigners matches their inspiring work and life stories. They’ve stood shoulder to shoulder with key progressive groups to sharpen the backlash against Republicans for their destructive agenda, particularly the healthcare repeal effort and tax scam that benefits the rich and big corporations instead of middle class Americans.

  • August 10, 2021 the Honorable Nancy Pelosi the Honorable Steny
    August 10, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Steny Hoyer Speaker Majority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader Hoyer, As we advance legislation to rebuild and renew America’s infrastructure, we encourage you to continue your commitment to combating the climate crisis by including critical clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives in the upcoming infrastructure package. These incentives will play a critical role in America’s economic recovery, alleviate some of the pollution impacts that have been borne by disadvantaged communities, and help the country build back better and cleaner. The clean energy sector was projected to add 175,000 jobs in 2020 but the COVID-19 pandemic upended the industry and roughly 300,000 clean energy workers were still out of work in the beginning of 2021.1 Clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives are an important part of bringing these workers back. It is critical that these policies support strong labor standards and domestic manufacturing. The importance of clean energy tax policy is made even more apparent and urgent with record- high temperatures in the Pacific Northwest, unprecedented drought across the West, and the impacts of tropical storms felt up and down the East Coast. We ask that the infrastructure package prioritize inclusion of a stable, predictable, and long-term tax platform that: Provides long-term extensions and expansions to the Production Tax Credit and Investment Tax Credit to meet President Biden’s goal of a carbon pollution-free power sector by 2035; Extends and modernizes tax incentives for commercial and residential energy efficiency improvements and residential electrification; Extends and modifies incentives for clean transportation options and alternative fuel infrastructure; and Supports domestic clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation manufacturing.
