    Qtnugrrss uf tIr Unitcb Iatr% maalpugtrnz, 3Qt fl515 October 14, 2020 Mike Pompeo Alex Azar II Secretary of State Secretary of Health and Human Services Department of State Department of Health and Human Services 2201 C Street NW 301 7th St. SE Washington, D.C. 20520 Washington, D.C. 20229 Dear Secretary Pompeo and Secretary Azar: We write to express our serious concern over the Trump administration’s reckless approach to U.S.—international health cooperation that reversed long-standing successful policies advocated on a bipartisan basis by previous administrations. Your actions limited American cooperation with the European Union and removed American experts from the ground in China, where the outbreak began. This impeded the ability of American public health officials to receive timely and accurate information about the pandemic, delaying our response and likely costing American lives. We urge you to immediately reestablish common-sense cooperation with the global community and to explore additional measures that could further strengthen our domestic and international capacity to control the virus and save lives. The initial response to the COVID-19 outbreak by the Chinese government was demonstrably flawed and seriously problematic. However, prior to this outbreak, your Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) dramatically downsized the U.S.’ global epidemic prevention activities. This led to both the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the National Institutes of Health reducing U.S. personnel in China as well as the closure of the National Science Foundation office there. This deprived the U.S. of early and accurate information on the novel coronavirus outbreak and impeded our ability to prepare and respond.

  • 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.

  • Potential Committee Vacancies in the 117Th Congress Last Updated November 25, 2020
    Potential Committee Vacancies in the 117th Congress Last updated November 25, 2020 Congressional committees are a critical part of the legislative process. Committees serve as gatekeepers for legislation, considering and amending bills before they reach the floor. Hearings and investigations shape policy debates and provide critical oversight. At the beginning of each Congress, Members receive their committee assignments. Members pursue membership on committees that align with their interests and priorities, and their assignments are determined by the Democratic Caucus and the Republican Conference - with heavy influence from party leadership and steering committees​.1 When determining committee assignments, the parties weigh member preferences along with seniority, regional balance, and balance among ideological and identity caucuses.2 Committee vacancies present opportunities for returning members to gain spots on new committees and for incoming freshmen to get their initial assignments. Vacancies for committee chairs and ranking members can have major policy implications because those leaders shape committees’ priorities. Committee vacancies may occur due to a preexisting vacancy or because a previous member retired, ran for another office, or lost reelection​. On the Democratic side, Members can receive waivers that allow them to serve on additional committees beyond the caps in Democratic Caucus rules.3 While returning members usually have the option to remain on their previous committees (except for committees with term limits4), ​a returning Democratic committee member using a waiver is not guaranteed the option to keep the committee slot.​ The Democratic Caucus uses waivers to distribute remaining committee slots after all members, including incoming freshmen, have hit their caps. The actual number of vacancies going into the 117th Congress depends on the final partisan composition of the House, which is reflected in the committee ratios negotiated by Democratic and Republican leaders.

  • December 16, 2020 the Honorable Nancy Pelosi Speaker, United
    December 16, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker, United States House of Minority Leader, United States Representatives House of Representatives Washington, DC 20515 Washington, DC 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Minority Leader McCarthy: We write to express our strong support for local parks funding and urge you to include a one- time, emergency investment of $500 million for local parks in any future economic stimulus or infrastructure package as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. The Covid-19 pandemic has dramatically impacted local parks services and employment, and looming budget cuts threaten cascading impacts. This year more than 56% of parks and recreation agencies have faced significant reductions to their current budgets1 and additional cuts are expected. A recent National League of Cities report found that 71% of local governments planned to significantly cut future parks budgets noting regretfully, “cuts to parks and recreation services in particular will negatively impact economic reopening, as many families rely on local summer camps and programs for affordable childcare and youth enrichment during the summer months that likely will not be available.”2 A one-time investment of $500 million through an emergency Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership Program (ORLP) could preserve up to 100,000 at-risk local seasonal jobs, provide at least 8,000 new jobs, and renovate more than 500 sites, all while adding $1.37 billion in economic activity. Parks play an essential role in communities, employing 1.1 million jobs, generating over $166 million in economic activity,3 providing critical emotional and physical health benefits, and bringing people together.

    May 4, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives H-232, U.S. Capitol H-204, U.S. Capitol Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader McCarthy, As you consider additional stimulus measures to combat the economic effects of COVID-19, we respectfully request that you provide support to our nation’s higher education institutions. While colleges and universities have effectively dealt with a rapid transition to remote instruction, this transition has led to the loss of billions of dollars in revenue through the suspension of in-person classes, early termination of student housing and dining contracts, interruption of on-campus services and countless other losses. These institutions serve as foundations for their community, and their full recovery must be a top priority for Congress. In California, for example, the University of California includes more than 285,000 students, 180,000 faculty and staff, and more than 2 million living alumni from 10 campuses across the state. The California State University System is the largest system of four-year higher education in the country, with 23 campuses, 53,000 faculty and staff and 482,000 students. The California Community Colleges is the largest higher education system in the nation, with 115 colleges serving over 2.1 million students. The more than $14 billion dollars provided to the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF) that was authorized under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was an important initial step toward meeting the urgent needs of students and the colleges and universities that serve them, but more support is desperately needed.
