New Congress on Line to Be Next Big Brother
New Congress on Line to be Next Big Brother By Bill Hobby Hooray for the new Congress. They promised to take government off our back, and they've put it in our living room. They promised to free us from regulation, and they've concocted one that can deprive some unwitting computer nerds of their liberty. The amendment attached to an overhaul of federal communications law by the Senate Commerce Committee sets fines up to $100,000 and jail terms of up to two years for anyone who transmits material that is "obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy or indecent" over the Internet. Welcome, thought police. As one columnist, Charles Levendosky of the Casper (Wyoming) Star-Tribune, put it, "It would melt the promise of this electronic Gutenberg." Many of us are just now discovering the wonders of cyberspace as presented through the Internet. We're just learning to pull up reproductions of paintings in the Louvre, reference material from the Library of Congress, bills up for consideration in the Texas Legislature. We are travelers in a fantastic new world of knowledge and information. This wonderful worldwide network of computers can answer our questions in seconds, whether we want to know about ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics or what happened today in the O.J. Simpson trial So naturally our Big Brothers in Congress couldn't leave us alone. Under the guise of protecting children from smut, the Senate has adopted one of the most draconian invasions of privacy ever. It has never been clear to me why the government considers that it owns the airwaves. -
Bob Packwood Oral History About Bob Dole
This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas. http://dolearchives.ku.edu ROBERT J. DOLE ORAL HISTORY PROJECT Interview with Sen. BOB PACKWOOD July 20, 2007 Interviewer Richard Norton Smith Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics 2350 Petefish Drive Lawrence, KS 66045 Phone: (785) 864-4900 Fax: (785) 864-1414 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas. http://dolearchives.ku.edu Packwood–07-20–07–p. 2 [Sen. Packwood reviewed this transcript for accuracy of names and dates. Because no changes of substance were made, it is an accurate rendition of the original recording.] Smith: But at his insistence, it’s about more than Senator Dole, and, when we’re done, we hope we’ll have a mosaic that will really amount almost to a history of the modern Senate, and, in a still larger sense, of the political process as it has evolved since Bob Dole came to this town in 1961, for better or worse; and that’s a debatable point. Let me begin by something Senator [John W.] Warner said in yesterday’s [Washington] Post. It was interesting; I think he came to the Senate in ’78. Packwood: Yes. Smith: What year did you Packwood: I was elected in ’68; came in ’69. Smith: Okay. He talked aboutit’s interesting. He talked about, in effect, the good old days as he remembered them, when freshmen were seen but not heard, when you waited until your second year to give your maiden speech, and when you had a handler to sort of guide you through the initiation. -
CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy. -

HELEN NICKUM INTERVIEW Tape 1, Side 1 GK
! HELEN NICKUM INTERVIEW ! !Tape 1, Side 1 GK: My name is Greg Karnes, and today’s date is January 28th, 2011. I am interviewing Helen Nickum. I guess we’ll get started. If you could state your full ! name and where and when you were born. Helen My full name is Helen Nickum, no middle name. I was born on February 4th, ! 1928, in Portland, Oregon. !GK: I guess a good place to start out is to sort of get a sense of your family history. Helen Yes, it goes back to about 1756, a far piece, when a father and three sons immigrated from Erzweiler, Germany down the Rhine River to a port in the Netherlands to board a ship to America in answer to an ad put in the paper by William Penn. And they landed in Philadelphia or near Philadelphia through several different clerks, and the name was spelled differently by the clerks because none of the group knew how to write and the genealogy came out with ! several spellings. So, that’s where my father’s family started. Both my mother and father’s folks lived in--were raised in Pennsylvania. My father’s folks came across the prairie from Baltimore to Corinne, Utah, where is-- near the place where the Golden Spike was planted when the railroads met. They ran a hotel there, which was the only brick building in town and a haven for when the Indians were uprising. Some of the chairs from that hotel are still in the ! town library. !GK: What were their names? Helen Nickum, John Nickum, that was my father’s father, and his mother, Cornelia Allen, had come by railroad from Baltimore, she leaving her husband because he was an alcoholic. -
The Rise and Fall of “No Special Rights”
Courtesy of the Rural Organizing Project The Rise and Fall of “No Special Rights” WILLIAM SCHULTZ THE OREGONIAN, the largest newspaper in the state, delivered a bracing message to readers from its editorial page the morning of October 11, 1992: “Oregon faces a clear and present danger of becoming the first state since the Civil War to withdraw civil rights instead of adding to them.” The editorial warned that Oregon’s ballot would include a “ghastly gospel” promoted by “would-be ayatollahs.” The official name for this “ghastly gospel” was Mea- sure 9, and the “ayatollahs” were its sponsors, the Oregon Citizens Alliance (OCA).1 As it appeared on the Oregon ballot, Measure 9 asked voters: “Shall THE COLUMBIA COUNTY CITIZENS FOR HUMAN DIGNITY group of Oregon formed in [the state] Constitution be amended to require that all governments discourage 1992 in response to Oregon Measure 9, a campaign to amend the Oregon Constitution to require homosexuality, other listed ‘behaviors,’ and not facilitate or recognize them?” discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. Members of the group are pictured here marching The “other behaviors” mentioned by the measure were “pedophilia, sadism, in protest of the measure. or masochism.”2 It was one of the most comprehensive — and harshest — anti- gay measures put to voters in American history. The editors of the Oregonian were so concerned about the possibility of the measure’s passage that they did not limit their denunciation to a single editorial. The paper ran an eleven-part The amendment was sponsored by the Colorado analogue of OCA, Colorado series condemning the measure, with each entry titled “Oregon’s Inquisition.” for Family Values (CFV). -

Oregon English CE
Date Printed: 06/16/2009 JTS Box Number: lFES 76 Tab Number: 38 Document Title: Voters pamphlet Document Date: 1986 Document Country: United States -- Oregon Document Language: English lFES 10: CE02451 I- .. STATE OF OREGON PRIMARY ELECTION MAY 20. 1986 Compiled and Distributed by £3.k., ~ Secretary of State This Voter's Pamphlet is the personal property of the recipient elector for assistance at the Polls. Dear Voter: On May 20th, Oregonians will participate in our Primary Election as they have done for decades, , Oregon has been a leader in the nation with laws to encourage voter participation and to pro- tect the integrity of our election system. First came the establishment of our voter registration system in 1899. Then, the first voter's pamphlet, in 1904, to help Oregonians understand when voting no meant no and when voting no meant yes! The initiative petition, that we now take for granted, was considered progressive in 1902. In fact, Oregon was the first state in the nation to use the initiative petition. We were the first state to allow for the direct election of our U.S. Senators by the people, in 1906, rather than the Legislative Assembly. The "Oregon System", a controversial law adopted by the legislature , in 1908, allowed for the recall of publicly elected officials. The newly created law was put into action in 1909 with the recall of the mayor of Junction City. In 1910, we became the first state to have a presidential preference Primary Election. The theme of this year's voter's pamphlet highlights some of these and other Oregon Firsts.
