    Four Things to Watch in Tuesday's New York

    Four Things to Watch in Tuesday's New York Primary Elections; This year will see an avalanche of mailed-in ballots, insurgents targeting incumbents, crowded fields and one candidate fighting on two fronts Vielkind, Jimmy. Wall Street Journal (Online); New York, N.Y. [New York, N.Y]21 June 2020. Tuesday's primary elections in New York will be unprecedented in several ways. They are the first occasion for people to go to polling places since the new coronavirus pandemic hit the state in March. As a result of different contests being rescheduled by Gov. Andrew Cuomo, the Democratic primary election for U.S. president will be held on the same day as party primaries for the state Assembly and Senate as well as the U.S. House of Representatives. (Republicans canceled their presidential primary in March after President Trump was the only candidate to qualify for the ballot.) And because of the pandemic, any New Yorker was able to request an absentee ballot. Election officials even mailed every registered voter an application to do so, along with a postage-paid envelope to mail it back. Here are four things to watch on Tuesday: PAPER BALLOTS: When Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump were trying to secure their parties' presidential nominations in April 2016, New York election administrators processed 115,178 applications for absentee ballots. Applications related to Tuesday's primaries had to be postmarked by June 16. According to the state Board of Elections, at least 1,949,997 ballots had been distributed as of June 19. The high volume of absentee ballots—which aren't counted by machines at polling places, as in-person ballots are—will make it impossible to determine the results of many contests for more than a week.

    Opening Statement of Chairman Robert C. “Bobby” Scott (VA-03) House Committee on Education and Labor Full Committee Organizational Meeting for the 117th Congress WebEx Monday, February 8, 2021 | 4:00 p.m. I thank my colleagues for being here today. Before we begin, I would like to take a moment of silence to acknowledge the passing of a Member of our Committee, Rep. Wright of Texas. Regrettably, he battled COVID after surviving cancer – and has joined over 450,000 Americans who have succumbed to the disease. During this difficult time for so many in our communities, we need to do everything we can to make sure this doesn’t happen. I yield to the Ranking Member to see if she would like to say anything prior to the moment of silence. As we formally begin our work for the 117th Congress, I want to express my commitment to working with every Member of this Committee to achieve the goals we share – ensuring that all people across this nation have access to quality education, good-paying jobs, and affordable health care. We will not always agree on the path to achieving these goals, but I hope we will agree to work in good-faith and follow evidence and research in developing policies that will improve the lives of the people we serve. This Committee has the authority and responsibility to address many of the urgent issues facing our communities today. First and foremost, we must do everything in our power to provide our children, students, educators, workers, and families with the relief to get through the COVID-19 pandemic.

The positive impact of increasing vaccination rates and decreasing cases of COVID-19 are clear to see. Businesses are open, sporting venues and cultural institutions have welcomed back fans and visitors, and restrictions have been lifted. On June 11, Washington D.C. fully reopened and lifted the restrictions put in place to stop the spread of COVID-19. Unfortunately, the United States Capitol and the People’s House have failed to do the same. The Capitol remains closed to the American people and the House continues to maintain policies that run contrary to science of COVID-19. It is time for you to reopen the House and get back to serving the American people. Weekly case numbers in the United States have reached their lowest point since March of 2020 at the very start of the pandemic, and every day hundreds of thousands of Americans are being vaccinated. This also holds true for the Washington D.C. metropolitan area and the Capitol Hill community specifically. Over the last two weeks cases are down 36% in Washington D.C. and over 40% in both Virginia and Maryland. On Capitol Hill, no congressional staffer is known to have tested positive in weeks and no Member of Congress is known to have tested positive in months. This can no doubt be attributed to the institution’s steady access to vaccinations.
