DEI Summit Media Diversity. Equity. Inclusion. They’re more than just words for us. They’re the hard-and-fast principles guiding how we build our teams, cultivate leaders and create a Chamber that’s the right fit for every person inside of it. We have a global, multicultural following—we want the Coral Springs Coconut Creek Regional Chamber to reflect that. Our Chamber positions diversity, equity and inclusion as critical for business maturation and growth. We endorse the development and implementation of diversity and inclusion strategies that advance productivity, innovation, and economic growth. We envision a steering committee that reflects the demographics of our city and a growing membership of businesses representing the diversity of our business owners and entrepreneurs.

  • The Crooks Trying to Bail-Out Alberto Gonzales,Dick
    THE MISPLACED US DETERMINATION TO INDICT ASSANGE I have stayed out of the WikiLeaks scrum to date, mainly because the relatively few cables published to date (only 1,269 of the more than 250,000 cables they possess have been released so far) did not provide that much new on the subjects I normally write on as opposed to just confirming or further supporting previous knowledge and/or suppositions. This is certainly not to say they have not been interesting reading or useful to many others, the WikiLeaks material has been all that. But now comes the bellicose fixation of the United States government on criminally prosecuting WikiLeak’s editor-in-chief Julian Assange. What started out as the usual idiotic yammering of Rep. Peter King and Sen. Joe Lieberman has turned into an apparently dedicated and determined effort by the Department of Justice to charge Assange. As the following discussion will demonstrate, it will require dicey and novel extrapolation of legal theories and statutes to even charge Assange, much less actually convict him. The interesting thing is this type of prosecution flies directly in the face of the written charging guidelines of the DOJ which prescribe a prosecution should be brought only where the admissible facts and evidence are “sufficient to obtain and sustain a conviction”. As we have seen in so many instances over the last few years, the DOJ uses this requirement to decline prosecution on a whole host of matters they simply do not want to touch, even where the evidence for conviction of serious crimes is crystal clear and unequivocal.

Fair Housing Planning Guide Volume 1 U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity DEVOLVING FAIR HOUSING PLANNING Devolution, “the transfer of power from a central government to local units,” will serve to empower our American cities for years to come. HUD is committed to lead in this effort. Perhaps nowhere in the Department’s mission is the prospect of devolution more challenging than in fair housing. Since 1968 the Department has been under an obligation to affirmatively further fair housing in the programs it administers. Its failures to do so have come most dramatically when that policy is not embraced or is actively resisted by local communities. There are those who do not believe that “devolution” is compatible with strong and effective fair housing enforcement.
