I live just outside the target noise zone identified by the project's map. So, according to the map and the mitigation formula being proposed -- shoved down our throats -- we are not entitled to sound insulation, sale support, or any other form of relief. Yet when the F-35s fly, our conversations must stop because we can't hear each other above the incredibly intrusive noise. And that is with our windows closed and locked. We don't want to move but our quiet enjoyment of our premises is being directly compromised. 2. Our property values are being depleted, a taking without just compensation. We don't want to be displaced but our quiet enjoyment is being directly compromised. 3. As borne out by peer-reviewed research, the noise level of the F-35s is dangerous to children's hearing and brain development. 4. The definition of an accident is something unplanned, unexpected, that nevertheless occurs. The basing of the F-35s in a metropolitan area, as Burlington is defined under US census standards, amounts to an accident waiting to happen. Witness the fatal aircraft accidents and other fatal accidents involving large complex systems that pepper our recent history.

According to the article, when challenged by Lennon and Ono’s lawyer, Leon Wildes, the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) acknowledged that it had used its own discretion in non-priority cases and revealed its prosecutorial discretion guidelines. The above-mentioned discretion policy is Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) launched on June 15, 2012. It is a common application of prosecutorial discretion to adopt a lenient approach towards those who had illegally entered the United States as children accompanied by their parents and have been in the United States without any legal standing. Under DACA, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), and the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) are directed by the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security not to remove them. Since this policy does not have the power to change the beneficiaries’ legal status, the young undocumented immigrants are still not eligible to apply for citizenship.

  • Interest Group Influences in Advancing and Inhibiting Educational Finance Reform: the Politics of Equity in Vermont's Act 60
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 438 608 EA 030 246 AUTHOR Mathis, William J. TITLE Interest Group Influences in Advancing and Inhibiting Educational Finance Reform: The Politics of Equity in Vermont's Act 60. PUB DATE 2000-04-00 NOTE 40p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the American Educational Research Association (New Orleans, LA, April 24-28, 2000). PUB TYPE Reports Descriptive (141) Speeches/Meeting Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Educational Finance; *Educational Resources; Elementary Secondary Education; Expenditure Per Student; *Finance Reform; School Community Relationship; *Tax Allocation IDENTIFIERS *Vermont ABSTRACT This paper analyzes educational-finance reform in Vermont, which culminated in the passage of Act 60, a comprehensive education and tax reform measure, and the subsequent political furor the act engendered. It outlines the pre-reform background focusing on early civil-society organizations and the unique political landscape in Vermont. The article describes the political actors in the reform debate, such as the League of Women Voters and The Vermont Natural Resources Council, and the various legislative movements these groups championed. Details of failed reform efforts and the many facets of political maneuvering are provided. After elements of bipartisan support of various reform packages fell apart, deliberative discourse fell to the side and political regrouping began in earnest. Corrections through the courts were then sought by financial reformers, and a family sued the state to obtain financial equity among school districts. The resultant victory and the passage of the reform legislation, Act 60, and subsequent backlash are described. The reform process resulted in watershed transformations of political thought and culture in Vermont.

  • The President and Immigration Law Redux Abstract
    C.104.COX-RODRIGUEZ.225.DOCX (DO NOT DELETE) 10/23/15 3:47 PM Adam b. cox & Cristina M. Rodríguez The President and Immigration Law Redux abstract. In November 2014, President Obama announced his intention to dramatically reshape immigration law through administrative channels. Together with relief policies announced in 2012, his initiatives would shield nearly half the population of unauthorized immigrants from removal and enable them to work in the United States. These events have drawn renewed attention to the President’s power to shape immigration law. They also have reignited a longstanding controversy about whether constitutional limits exist on a central source of executive authority: the power to enforce the law. In using the Obama relief policies to explore these dynamics, we make two central claims. First, it is futile to try to constrain the enforcement power by tying it to a search for congressional enforcement priorities. Congress has no discernible priorities when it comes to a very wide swath of enforcement activity—a reality especially true for immigration law today. The immigration code has evolved over time into a highly reticulated statute through the work of numerous Congresses and political coalitions. The modern structure of immigration law also effectively delegates vast screening authority to the President. Interlocking historical, political, and legislative developments have opened a tremendous gap between the law on the books and the law on the ground. Under these conditions, there can be no meaningful search for congressionally preferred screening criteria. Far from reflecting a faithful-agent framework, then, immigration enforcement more closely resembles a two-principals model of policymaking—one in which the Executive can and should help construct the domain of regulation through its independent judgments about how and when to enforce the law.

Across-affluent Western countries, immigration and integration concerns have been molded into a consensus on the need to instill discipline, but conflict has emerged through public discussions of where discipline is to be applied. Analyzing media content and public documents, I find that in Sweden and in Europe more broadly, as in the United States, some disciplinary political narratives suggest that immigrants themselves are deviant and should be targeted for exclusion from the social rights of citizenship; other narratives hold that immigrants can best beincorporated by using the state to facilitate the expansion of the secondary labor market.
