Dear US Department of Labor Dear U.S. Department of Labor, We are pleased to present you with this petition affirming this statement: "We applaud and support the Department of Labor’s proposal to help millions of low- and middle-income workers by increasing the overtime salary threshold from $23,660 to $50,440. If implemented, this rule change would guarantee coverage for an additional 13.5 million workers—giving them the right to receive the overtime pay they deserve. Unfortunately, corporate lobbyists—including the National Retail Federation, which includes Walmart—are trying to run out the clock on this proposed rule change. They are trying to get the Department of Labor to extend the public comment period beyond the September 4 deadline and possibly delay implementation indefinitely. In the face of opposition from Big Business and its unlimited financial resources, please do not back down from your position. The future of the American middle class depends on bold policy decisions such as this one." Attached is a list of individuals who have added their names to this petition, as well as additional comments written by the petition signers themselves. Sincerely, Economic Policy Institute MoveOn.org 1 John Hunter Penn Yan, NY 14527 Sep 3, 2015 Kathleen Hebbeler Cincinnati, OH 45205 Sep 3, 2015 Anne McManus Bayport, MN 55003 Sep 3, 2015 Ralph Stout East Hampton, NY 11937 Sep 3, 2015 Samuel Zamudio Cordova, AK 99574 Sep 3, 2015 Lera Chacon Boca Raton, FL 33431 Sep 3, 2015 Odette Aguiar Austin, TX 78758 Sep 3, 2015 Carole Wilder Owings Mills, MD 21117 Sep 3, 2015 caroline Two Rock Ranch STa, CA 94952 Sep 3, 2015 paula jenson Seattle, WA 98117 Sep 3, 2015 Caitlin Roberts Cambridge, MA 02138 Sep 3, 2015 Thom Barr Noti, OR 97461 Sep 3, 2015 MoveOn.org 2 William Paradise Auburn, AL 36832 Sep 3, 2015 Alan Robell Cupertino, CA 95014 Sep 3, 2015 David Jansson Fair Oaks, CA 95628 Sep 3, 2015 JAIN HUTZELL el sobrante, CA 94803 Sep 3, 2015 Randy Thatcher Strongsville, OH 44149 Sep 3, 2015 Mike henderson Wellston, OK 74881 Sep 3, 2015 Thomas Hinojosa Chicago, IL 60629 Sep 3, 2015 David Heitmeyer Milford, OH 45150 Sep 3, 2015 It is appalling that corporations that make billions of dollars every year do not want to pay the workers who make the money for them a living wage.

  • Battles Around New Music in New York in the Seventies
    Presenting the New: Battles around New Music in New York in the Seventies A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Joshua David Jurkovskis Plocher IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY David Grayson, Adviser December 2012 © Joshua David Jurkovskis Plocher 2012 i Acknowledgements One of the best things about reaching the end of this process is the opportunity to publicly thank the people who have helped to make it happen. More than any other individual, thanks must go to my wife, who has had to put up with more of my rambling than anybody, and has graciously given me half of every weekend for the last several years to keep working. Thank you, too, to my adviser, David Grayson, whose steady support in a shifting institutional environment has been invaluable. To the rest of my committee: Sumanth Gopinath, Kelley Harness, and Richard Leppert, for their advice and willingness to jump back in on this project after every life-inflicted gap. Thanks also to my mother and to my kids, for different reasons. Thanks to the staff at the New York Public Library (the one on 5th Ave. with the lions) for helping me track down the SoHo Weekly News microfilm when it had apparently vanished, and to the professional staff at the New York Public Library for Performing Arts at Lincoln Center, and to the Fales Special Collections staff at Bobst Library at New York University. Special thanks to the much smaller archival operation at the Kitchen, where I was assisted at various times by John Migliore and Samara Davis.

  • Dear Environmental Protection Agency Employees
    December 14, 2017 (Updated May 7, 2018) Dear Environmental Protection Agency Employees, This letter is written to express support and thanks for the work you do every day to protect public health and the environment. We want you to know your dedication is valued by millions of Americans despite indication that the current Administration feels otherwise. Equally important, we also write to better inform members of the public who may not understand what a frontline role you play in preventing premature death, other avoidable health consequences, irreversible ecosystem damage, and yes, even climate change. States, Tribes, and EPA play vital roles in protecting Americans and the environment from the impacts of pollution. In the late 60s and early 70s, our Congressional leaders created a system of environmental protection based on the principle of cooperative federalism. For this reason, and today more than ever, the safeguarding of our health and natural resources depends on robust state and Tribal programs as well as a fully functioning EPA. In every part of this country, you provide vital expertise and guidance, in partnership with the states and Tribes, by setting pollution limits to protect public health and the environment, facilitating development of multi-state solutions to pollution, using sound science to inform and address complex environmental challenges, responding to extreme weather events and catastrophes, and assisting states and Tribes with monitoring, enforcement and compliance. All of these functions (and there are many more) creates a level playing field among states and industry, which in turn guarantees a level of protection against harmful pollution for all Americans, regardless of where you live.
