April 2003 will mark 10 years since the Air Force changed its policy to permit women to take up combat assignments as fighter and bomber pilots. Since then, dozens of female officers have completed rigorous training to become proficient in flying fighters and bombers. Critics predicted they’d never integrate smoothly. Two women pilots By Rebecca Grant spurred negative attention early on. Media interest surged when Navy F-14 pilot Lt. Kara S. Hultgreen died in a carrier landing in October 1994.

BGen Kristin Goodwin, ’93, Commandant of Cadets Remarks: General Goodwin updated the CAS on what she has been doing since she took command last August, which largely consisted in establishing her priorities with regard to the culture at the Academy. She has three main priorities, which are People, Mission, and Pride. See her slides in Attachment II. One of her themes that applies to cadets, staff, and all the agencies that support the mission of the Academy is “Don’t Walk Past a Problem.” Gen Goodwin emphasized accountability is needed in the Cadet Wing and the permanent party. When asked what the Academy was doing with regard to the pilot shortage across the Air Force, she explained it is a complex issue made up of many parts. The minutes cannot accurately reflect her answer – we do not take notes that fast! [Sorry] When asked about the demographics of the AOCs, she relayed that the 40 AOCs are a sampling of as many AFSCs as possible. -

September 21, 2017 the Honorable John Koskinen Commissioner
September 21, 2017 The Honorable John Koskinen Commissioner Internal Revenue Service 1111 Constitution Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20224 Margaret Von Lienen Acting Director, Exempt Organizations Internal Revenue Service 1111 Constitution Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20224 Dear Commissioner Koskinen and Acting Director Von Lienen: The Campaign Legal Center (“CLC”) requests an immediate Internal Revenue Service investigation into the activities of the Foundation for Moral Law (“FML”), a Montgomery, Alabama-based organization holding tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Code. FML appears to have violated its tax-exempt status by repeatedly and expressly advocating the election of U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore, who is the former president of FML, and whose wife is its current president. CLC asks the Service to determine whether FML’s tax-exempt status should be revoked and whether excise taxes should be imposed on the organization and its managers. An organization can qualify for tax exemption under Section 501(c)(3) of the Code only if “it does not participate in” or “intervene in” “any political campaign on behalf of” “any candidate for political office,” which includes individuals who have publicly announced an intention to seek election. This ensures that a charitable organization does not use its taxpayer subsidy to engage in political propaganda. However, for the last several months, FML has repeatedly used charitable resources to actively promote Moore’s U.S. Senate candidacy. FACTS FML is a legal organization that “represents individuals involved in religious liberties cases and files amicus curiae (friend-of-the-court) briefs in state and federal court” and conducts educational seminars.1 FML’s website asks for “Tax-deductible contributions,” which it says will “allow Foundation attorneys to continue the fight.”2 FML maintains a website, http://morallaw.org/, and a Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/Foundation-for-Moral-Law-111608153140/.
