King AUDITOR GENERAL February 3, 2016 Senator David Hinkins, Chair Representative Ken Ivory, Chair Public Utilities and Technology Interim Committee Utah State Capitol Complex Salt Lake City, UT 84114 Dear Senator Hinkins and Representative Ivory: Enclosed are copies of the legislative audit report #2016-02, A Review of the Administration of 911 Surcharges. In accordance with Utah Code 36-12-8, the Legislative Audit Subcommittee passed a motion referring this audit report to your committee for further review and action as appropriate. The audit report was also referred to Executive Offices and Criminal Justice Appropriations Subcommittee, but your committee is designated as the lead committee, so we would like a response from you. The Legislative Auditor General and staff have done extensive work and used valuable resources to perform the audit in a professional and thorough manner. The best response from your committee will be to arrive at some conclusion on the issues raised and recommendations made in the report. Therefore, for each recommendation to the Legislature we ask that your committee reach one of the following conclusions, or some combination of the three, by a motion and a vote: · Draft legislation for the upcoming 2016 Legislative General Session for those issues you find to be sufficiently important · Conclude that the issues are significant but that more time is needed to develop solutions and consensus · Conclude that there is insufficient committee support to study the issues further In addition, for other (non-legislative) recommendations we ask that as part of your oversight role you determine whether appropriate action is being taken to address the audit findings.

  • The Arc of Colorado 2019 Legislative Scorecard
    The Arc of Colorado 2019 Legislative Scorecard A Letter from Our Executive Director: Dear Members of The Arc Community, Once again, I would like to thank each of you for your part in a successful legislative session. We rely on your expertise in the field. We rely on you for our strength in numbers. For all the ways you contributed this session, we are deeply appreciative. I would like to give a special thanks to those that came and testified on our behalf; Stephanie Garcia, Carol Meredith, Linda Skafflen, Shelby Lowery, Vicki Wray, Rowan Frederiksen, and many others who I may not have mentioned here. This session was a historic one. For the first time in 75 years, one party had control of the house, senate, and governor’s office. Additionally, there were 43 new legislators! We enjoyed a productive year in which The Arc of Colorado monitored 100 bills. Of those that we supported, 92% were signed by the governor and 100% of the bills that we opposed died. This high success rate means that individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families will have more opportunity to better live, work, learn, and play in their Colorado communities, with increased support. We are excited about many of this year’s outcomes. In a very tight budget year, the Joint Budget Committee was able to free up money for 150 additional slots for the Developmental Disabilities waiver waitlist. After three years of involvement, we finally saw the passing of HB19-1194, which places restrictions on suspensions and expulsions of children from preschool, through to second grade.

  • Capitol Insurrection at Center of Conservative Movement
    Capitol Insurrection At Center Of Conservative Movement: At Least 43 Governors, Senators And Members Of Congress Have Ties To Groups That Planned January 6th Rally And Riots. SUMMARY: On January 6, 2021, a rally in support of overturning the results of the 2020 presidential election “turned deadly” when thousands of people stormed the U.S. Capitol at Donald Trump’s urging. Even Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, who rarely broke with Trump, has explicitly said, “the mob was fed lies. They were provoked by the President and other powerful people.” These “other powerful people” include a vast array of conservative officials and Trump allies who perpetuated false claims of fraud in the 2020 election after enjoying critical support from the groups that fueled the Capitol riot. In fact, at least 43 current Governors or elected federal office holders have direct ties to the groups that helped plan the January 6th rally, along with at least 15 members of Donald Trump’s former administration. The links that these Trump-allied officials have to these groups are: Turning Point Action, an arm of right-wing Turning Point USA, claimed to send “80+ buses full of patriots” to the rally that led to the Capitol riot, claiming the event would be one of the most “consequential” in U.S. history. • The group spent over $1.5 million supporting Trump and his Georgia senate allies who claimed the election was fraudulent and supported efforts to overturn it. • The organization hosted Trump at an event where he claimed Democrats were trying to “rig the election,” which he said would be “the most corrupt election in the history of our country.” • At a Turning Point USA event, Rep.

  • 2021 Legislative Wrap up Document
    UTAH LEAGUE OF CITIES AND TOWNS LEGISLATIVE2021 WRAP UP #Cities Work INTRODUCTION 2021 was a legislative session like no other: new Governor, new legislators, COVID-19, Zoom voting, and an earlier start date after several 2020 special sessions. ULCT successfully nav- igated the 2021 General Session by relying on the League’s pillars: respecting the roles of state and local government, collaborating with stake- holders, and targeting policy-focused outcomes. ULCT took a hands-on approach with over 60 bills—testifying, negoti- ating, writing language, 245 and other advocacy BILLS TRACKED work—in addition to the INTRODUCTION 245 bills we tracked. Despite many bills preempt- ing local government authority, ULCT effectively defeated legislation mandating digital billboards, expanding short-term rentals, and increasing bureaucracy around fees, to name a few. ULCT invested significant resources negotiating and amending two preemptive land use bills, and will continue discussions with legislators on inspec- tions, building design elements, and internal ac- cessory dwelling units. Several bills supporting and improving law enforcement were passed due to the efforts of the Love, Listen, Lead Task Force, a joint ULCT and Utah Chiefs of Police Association endeavor. The Legislature also passed an unprec- edented investment in transit and transportation projects, efforts supported by the ULCT Board. Ultimately, our success comes back to the unpar- alleled involvement by our members. Thank you! Of course, the session also created plenty of is- sues for the 2021 interim, including continuing discussions on water, land use, public safety, and much more. We encourage members to engage with the League through the Legislative Policy Committee, ULCT conferences, and League com- munications.

    OFFICE OF THE HOUSE SPEAKER 900 Court St., N.E., Room H-269 Salem OR 97301 http://www.oregonlegislature.gov/kotek NEWS RELEASE December 31, 2020 Danny Moran, 503-986-1204 [email protected] House Speaker Tina Kotek Announces Committees Urgent issues will get dedicated attention in new committees SALEM – Oregon House Speaker Tina Kotek on Thursday announced House committees for the 2021 Legislative Session. In addition to the standard policy and budget committees, the Oregon House of Representatives will have new committees in the upcoming session to address timely issues, including wildfire recovery, redistricting, institutional reform of the Legislature, as well as subcommittees focusing on COVID-19 response, equitable policing and the return of a policy committee dedicated to early childhood issues. “Oregonians are facing crises that demand urgent action. The House is ready to lead on the issues that matter most in people’s lives right now. We also need to create the space to have a focused conversation about long-term, transformational changes to modernize the people’s legislature,” Speaker Kotek said. “I’m grateful for the diverse perspectives that my colleagues will bring as we all work together to help Oregonians navigate the big challenges that lie ahead.” Speaker Kotek communicated directly with every returning and new member of the Oregon House of Representatives before deciding on committee assignments, taking the time to weigh and discuss their priorities, interests and notable experience. She also consulted with both caucus leaders before finalizing the assignments. The House will convene on Monday, January 11 to swear in members.

  • 2009 Utah Taxpayers Association Legislative Scorecard
    2009 Utah Taxpayers Association Legislative Scorecard The Utah Taxpayers Association annually issues legislative report cards to its members and the public. The 2009 scorecard rates Utah’s 104 legislators on 17 key tax and spending related bills in the House and 16 in the Senate. Because HJR 8 is such an important taxpayer issue, we have applied a double weight to that vote. In the House, six of the bills were supported by the Association and passed without a dissenting vote, meaning the lowest possible House score (unless there were absences) on this year’s scorecard was 33.3%. In the Senate, seven of the votes were supported by the Association and passed without a dissenting vote, meaning the lowest possible Senate score (unless there were absences) on this year’s scorecard was 41.1%. House Summary The average score in the House is 72.6%. Four Representatives, all Republicans, scored 100.0%: Rebecca Lockhart, John Dougall and Mike Morley. Janice Fisher and David Litvack were the highest scoring Democrats (58.8%). The Representatives scoring below 50% are Jackie Biskupski (35.3%), Christine Johnson (37.4%), Neil Hansen (37.5%), Larry Wiley (40.0%), Mark Wheatley (41.2%), Christine Watkins (41.2%), James Gowans (41.2%), Rebecca Chavez-Houck (41.2%), Laura Black (41.2%), Jennifer Seelig (43.8%), Jay Seegmiller (47.1%), Marie Poulson (47.1%), Carol Spackman Moss (47.1%), Lynn Hemingway (47.1%), and Susan Duckworth (47.1%).
