    Columbian Lawyers Association First Judicial Department Fiftieth Annual Rapallo Award Luncheon HONORABLE JOHN A. BARONE Justice of the Supreme Court State of New York Twelfth Judicial District April 18, 2015 The Waldorf Astoria CHARLES A. RAPALLO Charles A. Rapallo, whose father, Antonio Rapallo, was an attorney, educator, and linguist, was the first jurist of Italian American descent elected to the Court of Appeals of the State of New York. He was among the first seven judges to serve on the Court when the new state Constitution was adopted in 1869 after the Constitutional Conventions of 1867 and 1868. Sworn in July 4th, 1870 at 46 years of age, he served as an Associate Judge until his death on December 28, 1887. The first volumes of New York Reports, published during Judge Rapallo’s tenure on the Court of Appeals, contain many of Judge Rapallo’s opinions embracing a wide range of subjects and displaying the resources of a powerful mind informed by reading and reflection. In the combination of qualities which qualify an individual for the Court of Appeals, Judge Rapallo had few, if any, superiors. He possessed intellectual gifts of a high order, integrity of purpose, a calm and dispassionate temper, great good sense, a solid judgement, and these, united with learning and a power of philosophical analysis, constitute him one of the outstanding judges to have served on the Court of Appeals. Judge Rapallo was one of the dedicated lawyers and jurists responsible for the formation of the Association of the Bar of the City of New York; he was elected a member of its first executive committee.

  • Surrogate Champions for the Poor

    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.

    New York Congressman CHARLES RANGEL

    New York Congressman CHARLES RANGEL, Chairman of the Select Committee on Nar- cotics Abuse and Control, is one of the strongest opponents to the legalization or decriminalization of the sale and use of illegal drugs in America today. Traffickers involved in the production, sale, and use of marijuana, cocaine and heroin probably view Congressman Rangel as the enemy. During a recent appearance on an ABC Television network special on the legalization of drugs hosted by Nightline'sTed Koppel, Rangel vigorously challenged the proponents of legalization. Elected to a ninth term, Rangel, a former U.S. Attorney, represents the largest black Congressional district in the country including the neighborhoods of East and Central Harlem and the upper West Side. He is also a member of the powerful House Ways & Means Committee and is a Deputy Whip for the House Democratic Leadership. Congressman Rangel lives in New York with his wife, Alma, and their two children. (over) MS. CLARA LOPEZ OBREGON is President of the City Council of Bogota, Colombia. The first woman to hold that position, she is one of the most prominent women in Colombian politics. Since the declaration of the "war on drugs", Americans are increasingly aware of the intimate link between drug use in the U.S. and drug production in Colombia. Lopez is deeply concerned about the drug related violence and human rights violations facing citizens in both countries. Aware that her outspoken criticism has placed her on a number of hit lists in Colombia, she continues to confront the issue. Ms. Lopez is a graduate of Harvard University and has served as a Special Assistant for Economic Affairs to the President of Colombia.

I examined historical changes in the administrative powers of the Surgeon General, to explain what factors affect how a Surgeon General utilizes the office’s “bully pulpit,” and assess changes in the political environment and in who oversees the Surgeon General that may affect the Surgeon General’s future ability to influence public opinion and health. This research involved collecting and analyzing the opinions of journalists and key informants such as current and former government health officials. I also studied public documents, transcripts of earlier interviews and other materials. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES.................................................................................................................v Chapter 1.
