Emergency Support Function 15: Standard Operating Procedures Emergency Support Function 15 Standard Operating Procedures July 2019 Emergency Support Function 15 Standard Operating Procedures July 2019 ______________________________________________________________________________ July 19, 2019 Preface and Transmittal Providing the public timely and accurate lifesaving information during major incidents remains our highest priority. The Emergency Support Function (ESF) 15 Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) 2019 edition is our primary guiding document to coordinate outreach and ensure consistent public information through an integrated Federal incident communications system. This document, an update to the 2016 SOP, builds upon the external affairs policy established in Presidential Policy Directive 8, Homeland Security Presidential Directive 5, the National Response Framework, National Incident Management System and Incident Command System. This 2019 SOP has been updated using lessons learned from Hurricane Maria, nation state nuclear threat communication planning and other impacts from the 2017 and 2018 hurricane seasons. This version also includes two new Department of Homeland Security components: Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction (CWMD) Office and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). The SOP will be continually reviewed, and users are encouraged to submit comments and recommendations to the incident communications team within Department of Homeland Security Public Affairs or specific department or agency points of contacts as applicable. We encourage all participants to recognize that success is dependent on the concept of unity of effort—many departments and agencies working together as a team. This SOP will be a key tool to ensure unity of effort on behalf of our communities. Chad R.

  • Contemporary Conservative Constructions of American Exceptionalism
    Journal of Contemporary Rhetoric, Vol. 1, No.2, 2011, pp. 40-54. Contemporary Conservative Constructions of American Exceptionalism Jason A. Edwards Ever since President Obama took office in 2009, there has been an underlying debate amongst politicians, pundits, and policymakers over America’s exceptionalist nature. American exceptionalism is one of the foundational myths of U.S. identity. While analyses of Barack Obama’s views on American exceptionalism are quite prominent, there has been little discussion of conservative rhetorical constructions of this impor- tant myth. In this essay, I seek to fill this gap by mapping prominent American conservatives’ rhetorical voice on American exceptionalism. Keywords: American exceptionalism, conservative rhetoric, jeremiad In April 2009, President Obama travelled to Europe to meet with European leaders in coordinating a strategy to deal with the global financial crisis and to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the NATO alliance. At a news conference in Strasbourg, France, Ed Luce of the Financial Times asked the president whether or not he believed in American ex- ceptionalism. Obama answered by stating, I believe in American exceptionalism, just as I suspect that the Brits believe in British ex- ceptionalism and the Greeks believe in Greek exceptionalism. I am enormously proud of my country and its role and history in the world . we have a core set of values that are en- shrined in our Constitution, in our body of law, in our democratic practices, in our belief in free speech and equality that, though imperfect, are exceptional. Now, the fact that I am very proud of my country and I think that we‟ve got a whole lot to offer the world does not lessen my interest in recognizing the value and wonderful qualities of other countries or recogniz- ing that we‟re not always going to be right, or that people may have good ideas, or that in order for us to work collectively, all parties, have to compromise, and that includes us.

    News in focus quite so stark as they are today,” she said. “I believe we have a responsibility to work together to make sure that our science and technology reflects us.” On Biden’s first day as president, his team announced a government-wide effort to pro- mote equity and dismantle structural racism, led by former US ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice.

  • To Continue Our Recognition of Women in Significant Governmental
    Mentoring Mondays January 11, 2021 To continue our recognition of women in significant governmental positions, this week we will look at the “Women Who Speak for Biden” (excerpts from a reprint from USA Today). This marks the first time that women will hold all of the communications positions for the White House. Each has extensive experience and are accustomed to working with each other. Jen Psaki will lead the communications team as White House Press Secretary – Psaki is a veteran of President Obama’s administration and has overseen the confirmation team for Biden’s transition. Her training as State Department spokesman is among the best. As communications director in 2015 and 2016, Psaki reorganized the White House approach to media with more attention for non-traditional and online outlets. She served as traveling press secretary for Obama during his reelection campaign. Karine Jean-Pierre will serve as Principal Deputy Press Secretary – Karine was a senior advisor on the Biden campaign, and was chief of staff to Kamala Harris. She was chief public affairs officer for MoveOn.org and a political analyst for NBC and MSNBC. Jean-Pierre was regional political director for the White House Office of Political Affairs during the Obama- Biden administration and served as deputy battleground states director for Obama’s 2012 reelection campaign. Kate Bedingfield will be White House Communications Director – Bedingfield served as communications director for Biden when he was vice president and associate communications director, deputy director of media affairs and the director of response in the Obama-Biden White House. Before joining the Biden White House team, Bedingfield was communications director to Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) on her successful 2008 Senate campaign, along with other roles on Democratic campaigns.

  • CODE R E D the Critical Condition of Health in Texas the Report Solution: Now Is the Time for Texas to Take Bold Steps
    CODE R E D The Critical Condition of Health in Texas The Report Solution: Now is the time for Texas to take bold steps. Problem: Texas has the highest percentage of uninsured in the nation. Now is the time for Texas to take bold steps. steps. bold take to Texas for time the is Now Solution: [ Preface ] On behalf of the entire Task Force on Access to Health Care in Texas, we want to make a few points as a preface to the Report. First, the Task Force is eclectic and brings diverse backgrounds, experiences and expertise to bear on the problems associated with the uninsured and underinsured in Texas. Indeed, this diversity enriched the deliberations and recommendations of the Task Force, who served without compensation. Second, while diverse with regards to expertise, etc., the Task Force is singular with regard to the importance and magnitude of the problem that inadequate health insurance poses, not only to the physical and mental health of the residents of Texas, but also to the financial well being of the state. The Task Force is unanimous in its emphasis that this is not a problem of the future, but one that is already here. Third, the Task Force feels that the Report is, in so far as possible, an evidence-based, objective, non-partisan effort with six well prepared commissioned papers and an independent review by a group of experts. The Task Force recognizes that long-term solutions to the challenges of our health system will require a national effort and new national approaches.

  • Speaking from the Heart: Mediation and Sincerity in U.S. Political Speech
    Speaking from the Heart: Mediation and Sincerity in U.S. Political Speech David Supp-Montgomerie A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Communication Studies in the College of Arts and Sciences. Chapel Hill 2013 Approved by: Christian Lundberg V. William Balthrop Carole Blair Lawrence Grossberg William Keith © 2013 David Supp-Montgomerie ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT David Supp-Montgomerie: Speaking from the Heart: Mediation and Sincerity in U.S. Political Speech (Under the direction of Christian Lundberg) This dissertation is a critique of the idea that the artifice of public speech is a problem to be solved. This idea is shown to entail the privilege attributed to purportedly direct or unmediated speech in U.S. public culture. I propose that we attend to the ēthos producing effects of rhetorical concealment by asserting that all public speech is constituted through rhetorical artifice. Wherever an alternative to rhetoric is offered, one finds a rhetoric of non-rhetoric at work. A primary strategy in such rhetoric is the performance of sincerity. In this dissertation, I analyze the function of sincerity in contexts of public deliberation. I seek to show how claims to sincerity are strategic, demonstrate how claims that a speaker employs artifice have been employed to imply a lack of sincerity, and disabuse communication, rhetoric, and deliberative theory of the notion that sincere expression occurs without technology. In Chapter Two I begin with the original problem of artifice for rhetoric in classical Athens in the writings of Plato and Isocrates.

  • About Sheriff David A. Clarke, Jr. After Nearly Four Decades in Law
    About Sheriff David A. Clarke, Jr. After nearly four decades in law enforcement, Sheriff David Clarke has found innovative ways to serve the public that gives him the freedom to reach millions of Americans with his message, unfiltered by the confines of holding an elected office. In addition to his dedication and focus as the Sheriff of a large metropolitan county, Clarke developed a passion for political commentary. He is fondly referred to as the "People's Sheriff" because he has the natural ability to explain complicated national controversies in a way that everyday people can understand. He is the keynote speaker at countless events across the country, where the audience praises his no- nonsense way of promoting conservative values. He truly enjoys mobilizing everyday Americans to become more politically active and civically engaged. As President of his new private sector venture, DAC Enterprises, Clarke has ramped up his massive social media activism, including regular communication with his nearly one million followers. In 2017, he became Spokesman and Senior Advisor to America First Action, dedicated to supporting the Trump-Pence Administration. Most recently, he is excited to join the Capital Research Center as Chair of the American Law and Culture program where he will tackle the destructive liberal ideology of identity politics. Sheriff Clarke is a frequent guest commentator for world renowned national news programs on issues such as the reasonable use of force by law enforcement, preserving the Second Amendment, and the complexities of immigration enforcement at the local level. Just one of his interviews, where he sparred with Don Lemon of CNN, has nearly 3.4 million views on Youtube.
