  • Trump Tax Cuts Could Start with Executive Action
    RobertRobert W. W. Wood Wood THETHE TAX TAX LAWYER LAWYER TAXES 2/27/2017 Trump Tax Cuts Could Start With Executive Action U.S. President Donald Trump flanked by business leaders holds a executive order establishing regulatory reform officers and task forces in US agencies in the Oval Office of the White House on February 24, 2017 in Washington, DC. Earlier in the day, Trump stated he would cut 75 percent of regulations.

Presidential Memorandum: a federal Hiring Freeze Presidential Memorandum to bring back consideration of the Construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline Presidential Memorandum to reconsider Construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline Presidential Memorandum to review Construction of American Pipelines Executive Order 13766 Expediting Environmental Reviews and Approvals for High Priority Infrastructure Projects Presidential Memorandum Streamlining Permitting and Reducing Regulatory Burdens for Domestic Manufacturing Proclamation 9571: National School Choice Week, 2017 Executive Order 13767: Border Security and Immigration Enforcement Improvements, the “build the wall” executive order.

Power Dynamics of the Dakota Access Pipeline Protests: An Environmental Justice Analysis Abstract The Dakota Access Pipeline and the events of the accompanying protests are contemporary examples of environmental injustice, with the Standing Rock Nation facing a majority of the injustice. Analyzing Sioux history, the pipeline's previous routes, and the police and state responses to the "protectors", I propose that the Dakota Access Pipeline is a form of distributive, procedural, and substantive injustice.

  • Media Representations of the Dakota Access Pipeline Protest by © 2019 Katie Grote B.A., Northern State University, 2016
    Pipelines, Protectors, and a Sense of Place: Media Representations of the Dakota Access Pipeline Protest By © 2019 Katie Grote B.A., Northern State University, 2016 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Geography and Atmospheric Science and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. Chair: Dr. Jay T. Johnson Dr. Joseph Brewer Dr. Barney Warf Date Defended: 29 March 2019 ii The thesis committee for Katie Grote certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: Pipelines, Protectors, and a Sense of Place: Media Representations of the Dakota Access Pipeline Protest Chair: Dr. Jay T. Johnson Date Approved: 29 March 2019 iii Abstract Indigenous resistance to the construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) garnered national and international media attention in 2016 as thousands gathered near the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation in protest. Increased media attention spurred enquiry concerning the representation of the Indigenous peoples leading the movement. The majority of the U.S. population is ill-informed about historical and contemporary issues concerning Indigenous peoples; this limited understanding of Indigenous experience is manifest in news outlets and their audiences’ knowledge of current issues impacting Indigenous peoples. This research employs a qualitatively-based content analysis of 80 news articles reporting on the DAPL protest. These articles range in political bias and can be categorized in one of the following groups: Conservative Bias, Liberal Bias, Mainstream News, Local News, and Indigenous News. Commonly occurring codes and themes are analyzed across each category. Word count and frequency of reporting are also considered to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the media representations as they develop through time.
