    800 17th Street, NW, Suite 1100 Washington, DC 20006 T 202.955.3000 | F 202.955.5564 FEDERAL UPDATE July 2013 House Appropriations Update: The House Appropriations Transportation, Housing and Urban Develop subcommittee marked up the bill on June 19. The full House Appropriations Committee approved the bill on June 27. The bill provides $44.1 billion in discretionary spending – a reduction of $7.7 billion below the FY 2013 enacted level and $13.9 billion below the President’s budget request. The measure fully funds the MAP-21 surface transportation law, avoids Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) furloughs, and provides money for contract air traffic control towers. However, it also includes a provision that would eliminate funding for California's high-speed rail project, and it effectively ends the TIGER discretionary grant program. The bill funds Federal Transit Administration (FTA) New Starts at $1.817 billion, 2.1 percent below the FY 2013 funding level and 8.4 percent decrease below the president's budget request. The bill does not include funding for the president's $50 billion infrastructure stimulus funding proposal. House Majority Leader Eric Cantor has indicated that he hopes to bring the measure to floor during the week of July 29. However, passage of the legislation – which has already proven controversial due to its steep cuts – remains uncertain as Democrats are strongly opposed. Additionally, with the August recess fast approaching and consideration of recent appropriations bills taking longer than expected, it is possible consideration of the bill could be delayed. Senate Appropriations Update: The full Senate began consideration of its version of the FY 2014 Transportation, Housing, and Urban Development (THUD) Appropriations bill during the week of July 22.

    SH 21-76 UNITED STATES ARMY HANDBOOK Not for the weak or fainthearted “Let the enemy come till he's almost close enough to touch. Then let him have it and jump out and finish him with your hatchet.” Major Robert Rogers, 1759 RANGER TRAINING BRIGADE United States Army Infantry School Fort Benning, Georgia FEBRUARY 2011 RANGER CREED Recognizing that I volunteered as a Ranger, fully knowing the hazards of my chosen profession, I will always endeavor to uphold the prestige, honor, and high esprit de corps of the Rangers. Acknowledging the fact that a Ranger is a more elite Soldier who arrives at the cutting edge of battle by land, sea, or air, I accept the fact that as a Ranger my country expects me to move further, faster, and fight harder than any other Soldier. Never shall I fail my comrades I will always keep myself mentally alert, physically strong, and morally straight and I will shoulder more than my share of the task whatever it may be, one hundred percent and then some. Gallantly will I show the world that I am a specially selected and well trained Soldier. My courtesy to superior officers, neatness of dress, and care of equipment shall set the example for others to follow. Energetically will I meet the enemies of my country. I shall defeat them on the field of battle for I am better trained and will fight with all my might. Surrender is not a Ranger word. I will never leave a fallen comrade to fall into the hands of the enemy and under no circumstances will I ever embarrass my country.

  • Provide Dedicated Funding for Effective School Library Programs in the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA)
    Contact: www.ala.org/ogr Jessica McGilvray [email protected] Telephone: 800.941.8478 ALA Office of Fax: 202.628.8419 Government Relations National Library Legislative Day Priority Provide Dedicated Funding for Effective School Library Programs in the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) ALA Position: The American Library Association urges Congress to maximize K-12 students’ academic achievement by providing dedicated funding in ESEA for “effective school library programs.” Why should effective school library programs be explicitly included in ESEA? Research shows that effective school library programs foster higher student achievement. Effective school library programs create sophisticated 21st century learning environments that equip students with the skills they need to succeed in college and at work. School librarians are experts in their schools’ curricula, interdisciplinary education methods, and digital literacy instruction. Without direct funding, school libraries and librarians will continue to be counterproductively eliminated from school budgets by financially stressed school systems. What action is needed to make effective school library programs part of ESEA? When the Every Child Achieves Act of 2015, reaches the Senate floor (having been approved 22-0 by the Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP)): o Adopt the “dedicated library funding” amendment to be offered by Sen. Jack Reed to incorporate key parts of his SKILLS Act into Title II of ESEA; and o Retain the HELP Committee’s Title V “Literacy and Arts Education” program to underwrite the purchase of books and other educational materials, and further librarians’ professional development, in low-income schools. Bring H.R. 5, the Student Success Act of 2015, to the House floor immediately and incorporate the substance of Sen.

  • US Fintech Policy in the 116Th Congress
    US FinTech Policy in the 116th Congress January 2019 — June 2019 Curated by Jackson Mueller, Associate Director, FinTech Program, Milken Institute Center for Financial Markets 1 June 2019 in Review: Notable Congressional Developments . Credit Access and Inclusion Act resurfaces. The legislation was recently introduced by Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) in mid-June and would essentially allow for landlords, telecom companies, and utility providers to report on-time payments data to credit bureaus in an effort to boost consumer credit scores. This is not the first time we’ve seen this bill introduced in the House and Senate. As we noted in a prior white paper,1 the legislation appeared in both the 114th and 115th Congresses, with former Representative Keith Ellison (D-MN) leading the charge. Despite the broad bipartisan support for prior versions of this Act, the legislation has yet to make it out of Congress and onto the president’s desk. Keep in mind that Sen. Scott also introduced a similar version in the 115th Congress (S.3040),2 which found its way into the JOBS and Investor Confidence Act. The legislation passed the House in July 2018, but never made it out of the Senate. Lastly, the US House Financial Services Committee Task Force on FinTech will convene for a public hearing on July 26 covering the use of alternative data in underwriting and credit scoring to expand access to credit. FinTech & AI Task Forces hold inaugural hearings. Announced by House Financial Services Committee Chairwoman Maxine Waters (D-CA) back in May, the Task Force on FinTech and the Task Force on AI held their inaugural hearings in late June.
