  • Remembering Guy Molinari (1928-2018)
    REMEMBERING GUY MOLINARI (1928-2018) For most Americans, the Holiday Season that begins with Thanksgiving and culminates on New Year's Eve is a time of celebration, reflection, and remembrance. Many thousands of Americans, in the Counting of their Blessings this year, will give Thanks to having had a Public Servant who made a positive impact on their lives and livelihoods. That person is former Congressman Guy Molinari, who departed this life on July 25 at the age of 89. If there is one word that comes to mind by those who had the privilege of having known Guy Molinari, that word is “Courage.” Courage is what Molinari exhibited when he joined the Marine Corps as a young man. At a celebratory stop at a bar in, ironically, Washington, D. C., en route to Basic Training at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, Molinari led his fellow recruits to walk out of that bar in protest of a racist bartender who refused to serve one of the young men in Molinari's group who was African-American. Once in the Corps, Molinari, armed with a Law Degree, stood up to superior Officers Indifferent or Hostile towards Justice. In the frozen fields of South Korea Molinari thus established a personal template that would guide him through the rest of his extraordinary life; he would be a champion of those falsely accused of wrongdoing. Molinari returned from the Korean War to his beloved Staten Island in 1953. It was there he turned to the practice of real estate law. The rule of law was a principle by which Molinari was raised; his Grand-parents had immigrated to the U.

  • Surrogate Champions for the Poor
    6 Surrogate Champions for the Poor The poor, like all constituent groups, need strong advocates in Congress. They need legislators who will devote their time to issues related to poverty, and who will advance legislation to address poverty-relevant issues. Without these legislative champions, it is unlikely that the interests of the poor will be raised on Capitol Hill. Without this initial recognition, it is unlikely that the House will pursue policies intended to help the poor. As Williams writes, “before government can act in a manner that is responsive to the interest of individual citizens, those interest must be articulated by a representative in a decision-making body such as a legislature” (1998, 24). Therefore, this chapter identifies and discusses these “champions for the poor.” The previous three chapters reveal that some poverty-related legisla- tion is introduced in the House, and that certain legislators are more likely to offer such legislation. However, these chapters also make clear that the representation of the poor in Congress is not straightforward. To the extent that it occurs, it does not follow the classical paths of collective or dyadic representation. Put differently, the champions of the poor are not the usual suspects. In this chapter, I examine an alternate pathway of representation – surrogate representation – wherein a legislator represents constituents beyond his own district. I establish the role surrogate representatives play in giving the poor a political voice, and show that surrogate representation is central to how the poor are represented in Congress. This focus on surrogate champions shifts attention to the activity of legislators throughout their careers in the House, rather than at one moment in time.

    Hon Patrick J Kennedy, RI Hon Charles B. Rangel, NY Chairman Co-Char, Voter Participation Hon. Frank Pallone, Jr , NJ June 8,2000 Co-Char, Finance Hon. Ellen 0. Tauscher, CA Lawrence Noble, Esq. General Counsel Federal Election Commission 999 E Street, N.W., 6th Floor Washington, D.C. 20463 Dear Mr. Noble: I' This complaint asserts that Dick Zimmer, Zimmer 2000, Maria Ch for Tax Reform, Megan Jencik, Jamestown Associates, Fox Media Consulting, Larry Weitzner and Tom Blakely violated the Federal Election Campaign Act (the "Act"), 2 U.S.C. $8 43 1 et seq., and related regulations of the Federal Election Commission ("FECI' or the 'lcommiiiion"), 11 C.F.R. $9 100.1 -et seq. Seeking the Republican nomination for Congress, Zimmer used an unregistered shadow organization to run attack ads against an opponent. These ads were prepared directly by his campaign consultants and were purchased by a woman who had worked on his staff weeks before the ads aired. In fact, this is the second time that a Zimmer campaign for Federal office has broken the law in this way. Nearly all of the personalities involved in this scheme were engaged in a virtually identical-one during Zimmer's failed 1996 campaign for Senate. Zimmer obviously views the direct use of outside group "soft money" as part of the normal business of campaigning. Having rece@ed/ the Republican nomination in this way, he will undoubtedly use similar tactics in the'general election. The Commission must take immediate action to punish and correct/ this illegal behavior. [0403 1 -0044/zimmercom laint 430 SOUTH CAhTd STREET WASHINGTON, D.C.
