  • 1605026 NY Spotlight Memo
    ! MEMORANDUM TO: Interested Parties FROM: Alixandria Lapp, Executive Director, House Majority PAC DATE: May 26, 2016 RE: Congressional Democrats Poised for Pick-Ups Across the Empire State With just over a month until New York’s June 28 congressional primaries, and just under six months from the November general election, Democrats are poised for significant pick-ups in congressional districts across the Empire State. This year Democrats are overwhelmingly on offense in New York – with at least six Republican held seats that could be flipped this November. Multiple Republican incumbents and challengers are finding their already-precarious political prospects diminishing even further as they struggle with a damaging party brand, a toxic presidential ticket-mate, and increasingly prove themselves out of touch with their own districts. Bottom line: With New York’s congressional Republicans increasingly vulnerable heading into the fall, Democrats are overwhelmingly on offense and well-positioned to win key districts across the state in 2016. New York Republicans Tied to Toxic Brand As in any presidential year, down-ballot races will be heavily shaped by the top of the ticket. For Republicans, particularly in New York, that’s bad news. Even before the GOP presidential race took shape, New York’s congressional Republicans faced significant structural political challenges. In six competitive Republican-held districts, President Obama either won or came within 1% of winning in 2008 and 2012. Now with Donald Trump as their presidential ticket-mate, down-ballot prospects for New York Republicans are far worse. Earlier this month, a poll by Morning Consult found that nearly half of all Americans would “be less likely to support candidates for public office if they say they back Donald Trump.” And despite Donald Trump’s big win in New York’s presidential primary, there’s no indication that it will translate to success in November.

We urge you to protect this deduction—a unique and cherished incentive for Americans to invest directly in important community needs. The nonprofit sector plays a central role in the social and economic vitality of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Our organizations educate and keep the citizenry healthy; care for the most vulnerable populations; and preserve the state’s cherished historical, cultural and environmental resources. Nonprofits employ 16.7% of the workforce, or nearly 500,000 Massachusetts residents, and are responsible for $250 billion in annual revenues. Congress codified the strong American tradition of giving back to our communities in the tax code nearly a century ago, when it provided for deductions on charitable contributions in the Revenue Act of 1917.

  • Letter to Congressional Black Caucus
    December 4, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker of the House Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives H-232, U.S. Capitol H-204, U.S. Capitol Washington, DC 20515 Washington, DC 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader McCarthy: As members of the Congressional Black Caucus, we want to thank you for your efforts to ensure access to health care for patients and to ensure that physicians and specialists around the country have been able to continue operations during this pandemic. However, we are becoming increasingly concerned about looming cuts facing many specialists, which are expected to go into effect beginning on January 1, 2021. On December 1, 2020, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ (CMS) published the final rule for the CY2021 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule, which increased rates for the office-based evaluation and management (E/M) code set in CY2021. Due to the requirement for budget neutrality, this will result in sizable cuts for over thirty healthcare specialties. While we are supportive of the increases for the office-based E/M code set, the resulting cuts are ill-conceived in the middle of a pandemic. Even without these cuts, too many practices are struggling, even as patients need access to health care now more than ever. We are aware of solutions to either waive budget neutrality requirements (H.R. 8505) or to hold specialists harmless (H.R. 8702). While not perfect, either of these solutions would give healthcare specialists the financial security they need to weather the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • June 30, 2021 the Honorable Joseph R. Biden, Jr. President of the United States the White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20500
    June 30, 2021 The Honorable Joseph R. Biden, Jr. President of the United States The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20500 Dear President Biden, We are writing to urge you to act swiftly on bipartisan solutions to address the critical water crisis facing the western United States. This historic drought is threatening our drinking water supply and energy generation capacity, along with putting the health of our citizens, environment, and economy at risk. We are witnessing this water crisis grow each day in our communities. As you may know, Lake Mead, which supplies water for 25 million people across Nevada, Arizona, and California, just reached its lowest level since construction in the 1930s. Alarmingly, it currently stands at only 36 percent capacity. The Bureau of Reclamation is expected to declare a Level 1 shortage condition for 2022 that will result in water supply cuts for many states, including the loss of approximately one-third of the Colorado River water delivered into Central Arizona. Reclamation has already reduced water allocations for users of the Central Valley Project, which is facing the worst hydrologic conditions since 1976-77. And extreme drought conditions and low snowpack on the Rio Grande are threatening reservoir levels and water allocations. The shortages will have far-reaching impacts for our water utilities, farmers, tribal communities, and the health of our rivers and ecosystems. But the impacts of this drought will be felt far beyond these water shortages. Lower levels in reservoirs decrease our ability to generate electricity. At the Hoover Dam, which has the capacity to produce power for 1.3 million people, generation is down by 25%.
