    The Honorable Eliot Spitzer State Capitol Albany, NY 12224 Antonia C. Novello, M.D., M.P.H., Dr. P.H. New York State Commissioner of Health New York State Department of Health Corning Tower Empire State Plaza Albany, NY 12237 Dear Governor-elect Spitzer and Commissioner Novello: We write on behalf of the memberships of four committees of the New York City Bar Association -- Corrections, Health Law, Mental Health Law, and Social Welfare Law -- to urge New York State to cease its current practice of terminating Medicaid eligibility for individuals incarcerated in state and local correctional facilities. We urge the State instead to suspend Medicaid eligibility. Suspension will allow incarcerated Medicaid beneficiaries to receive needed benefits promptly upon release, thereby promoting continuity of care. Under the present system, formerly eligible individuals must reapply for Medicaid upon their release from correctional facilities. This process typically results in a significant delay in these individuals’ ability to access needed care in their communities. Members of this population already are at high risk for physical and mental illnesses, including substance addiction. Additionally, many releasees have serious chronic conditions for which they received care while in prison. It is imperative that they receive swift access to adequate and affordable medical care upon release. Failure to receive such assistance can hinder their ability to become productive members of the community, and in fact, may threaten the safety and well-being of the communities to which formerly incarcerated individuals return. Moreover, while awaiting the reinstatement of Medicaid coverage, formerly incarcerated individuals frequently turn to emergency rooms and other costly forms of care for assistance.

    May 3, 2017 Mr. Jared Kushner Senior Adviser to the President The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20500 Dear Mr. Kushner: Democracy 21 calls on you to make a full public disclosure of the foreign lenders, investors and business associates involved in your extensive business holdings. We believe this information is essential in order to assure the American people that there are no conflicts of interest between the important foreign policy responsibilities assigned to you by President Trump and your extensive business holdings. On April 25, 2017, Democracy 21 wrote to you to express our concerns about the potential conflicts of interest and the appearance of such conflicts that you currently face in your role as Senior Adviser to the President. The letter cited the unprecedented policy responsibilities you have been given by President Trump in your role as Senior Adviser to, and confidant of, the President, and your extensive business holdings. The policy responsibilities assigned to you and mentioned in the April 25 letter include foreign policy matters involving China, Canada, Mexico, the Middle East and brokering peace between Israel and the Palestinians. The letter also cited a Washington Post article that said you also are “the primary point of contact for presidents, ministers and ambassadors from more than two dozen countries.”1 The April 25 letter discussed the fact that your decision to make only a partial divestiture of your business holdings resulted in your continuing to retain extensive business interests. According to a Washington Post article that discussed the financial disclosure report you have filed, “Kushner reported owning a stake in nearly 300 different assets or companies collectively worth hundreds of millions of dollars, most of which he still owns.”2 1 P.

  • A Historical Timeline 1970S and Before
    NJ Election Law Enforcement Commission- A Historical Timeline By Joseph Donohue, Deputy Director (Updated 10/2/17) 1970s and Before October 16, 1964- Governor Richard Hughes enacts New Jersey’s first lobbying law (Chapter 207). It requires any lobbyist who makes $500 or more in three months or spends that much to influence legislation to register with the Secretary of State. Trenton attorney John Heher, representing American Mutual Insurance Alliance of Chicago, becomes the state’s first registered lobbyist.1 New Jersey Education Association, historically one of the most powerful lobbyists in the capitol, registers for the first time on December 15, 1964.2 September 1, 1970- The interim report of the bipartisan New Jersey Election Law Revision Commission concludes “stringent disclosure requirements on every aspect of political financing must be imposed and enforce at every election level….If there were full public disclosure and publication of all campaign contributions and expenditures during a campaign, the voters themselves could better judge whether a candidate has spent too much.” It recommends creation of a 5-member Election Law Enforcement Commission and a tough enforcement strategy: “withhold the issuance of a certificate of election to a candidate who has not complied with the provisions of this act.”3 November 13, 1971- A new lobbying law (Chapter 183) takes effect, repealing the 1964 act and transferring all jurisdiction to the Attorney General. It requires lobbyists to wear badges in the Statehouse for the first time and file quarterly reports that list the bills they are supporting or opposing. April 7, 1972- Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 requires disclosure of campaign contributions and expenditures for federal candidates.4 June 17, 1972- Break-in occurs at the Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate office complex in Washington, DC.

Pearce It is my pleasure to introduce Sherron Watkins, the Academy of Management's 2003 Distinguished Executive Speaker. By now, her story as the former vice president of Enron Corporation who tried to bring what she called "an elaborate accounting hoax" to the attention of Enron's chief executive officer is well known. In August 2001, responding to his invitation to employees to put any concerns in a comment box, she did so. When he did not address her explosive charges at a subsequent company-wide meeting, she sought a face-to-face meeting with him. A month later the CEO announced to employees that "our financial liquidity has never been stronger," while exercising his own $1.5 billion in stock options, just ahead of the company's announcement of a $618 million quarterly loss. When United States Congressional investigators uncovered her letter buried in boxes of documents, they brought Ms. Watkins before the United States Senate in February 2002 to testify about her warnings.
