Handel supported repealing the ACA, arguing as early as 2010 that the bill was bad for states, and continued to oppose the ACA in 2020. She wrongly called the ACA “the largest tax increase of my lifetime,” and was called out by Politifact for her false claim. She also argued that the ACA was bad for business, as it was hampering job growth and raising taxes on small businesses. Although she was not a Member of Congress at the time, Handel was on record saying she would have supported the American Health Care Act, which weakened protections for pre-existing conditions and created an age tax on older Americans. Handel Voted Twice To Block CHIP Funding. As a member of Congress, Handel voted twice to block CHIP funding, on two separate occasions in January 2018. Handel Was Bankrolled By Companies Implicated In The Opioid Crisis, Even Though The Opioid Crisis Had Devastated Her District. Handel took thousands of dollars in campaign contributions from companies implicated in the opioid crisis, including Abbott Laboratories, Johnson & Johnson, and Express Scripts. This was in spite of the fact that Handel’s district, GA-06, had been devastated by the opioid crisis, and had higher opioid fatality rates than the state of Georgia writ-large. Handel Put The Interests Of Party Bosses Over Georgians Handel Voted For The 2017 Republican Tax Scam. Handel voted for the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which provided huge tax cuts to large corporations, ballooned the debt, and stripped 13 million Americans of their health care. Handel also voted to make several provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act permanent. Handel Supported Weakening The Social Safety Net. Handel also supported “flexibility” with Medicare and Medicaid dollars, and voted as a member of Congress for a budget that would gut Medicare. Handel also supported privatizing Social Security and voted for a budget that raised the Social Security retirement age, even though 96,325 received some Social Security benefits. Handel Voted Against Gun Safety Measures And Was Funded By The NRA. The NRA spent nearly $100,000 to support Handel during the 2018 election cycle. As a member of Congress, Handel voted twice to block consideration of three bills to close gun safety loopholes, and voted in favor of permitting concealed carry reciprocity between states. Handel Was Bad For Georgia Women. When she was in Congress, Handel voted to block consideration of reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act, and voted for a 20-week abortion ban that critics argued was unconstitutional. When she was a Fulton County Commissioner and a gubernatorial candidate, Handel supported state and county funding for Planned Parenthood; however, she backtracked on these positions later in her political career, after she began facing criticism from pro-life groups over her previous stances. When Handel worked for the Komen Foundation, she pushed for the organization to cut all of its ties with Planned Parenthood. As a result, the group lost $77 million in donations, as it had to withdraw from several events. Handel eventually resigned from Komen, but her critics said the controversy had positioned her to set herself up as a “pro-life martyr.” As a county commissioner, Handel opposed funding conferences designed to empower young women and help prevent domestic violence. Throughout her political career, Handel has been endorsed three times by the Susan B. Anthony list, a prominent pro-life group. Handel Was Bad For Workers And Voted Against A Minimum Wage Increase, Saying That The Government Had “No Business” Setting Wages. Throughout her career, Handel repeatedly voted to block efforts Karen Handel (GA-06) Research Book | 4 to increase the minimum wage, both in Georgia and at the federal levels. In 2017, Handel voted against raising the minimum wage to $15 per hour in seven years, and in 2014 she opposed a $10.10 minimum wage in Georgia, even though the state’s minimum wage at the time was only $5.15 per hour. In 2014, she also declared that the government

  • The History of Redistricting in Georgia
    GEORGIA LAW REVIEW(DO NOT DELETE) 11/6/2018 8:33 PM THE HISTORY OF REDISTRICTING IN GEORGIA Charles S. Bullock III* In his memoirs, Chief Justice Earl Warren singled out the redistricting cases as the most significant decisions of his tenure on the Court.1 A review of the changes redistricting introduced in Georgia supports Warren’s assessment. Not only have the obligations to equalize populations across districts and to do so in a racially fair manner transformed the makeup of the state’s collegial bodies, Georgia has provided the setting for multiple cases that have defined the requirements to be met when designing districts. Other than the very first adjustments that occurred in the 1960s, changes in Georgia plans had to secure approval from the federal government pursuant to the Voting Rights Act. Also, the first four decades of the Redistricting Revolution occurred with a Democratic legislature and governor in place. Not surprisingly, the partisans in control of redistricting sought to protect their own and as that became difficult they employed more extreme measures. When in the minority, Republicans had no chance to enact plans on their own. Beginning in the 1980s and peaking a decade later, Republicans joined forces with black Democrats to devise alternatives to the proposals of white Democrats. The biracial, bipartisan coalition never had sufficient numbers to enact its ideas. After striking out in the legislature, African-Americans appealed to the U.S. Attorney General alleging that the plans enacted were less favorable to black interests than alternatives * Charles S. Bullock, III is a University Professor of Public and International Affairs at the University of Georgia where he holds the Richard B.

  • District Policy Group Provides Top-Line Outcomes and Insight, with Emphasis on Health Care Policy and Appropriations, Regarding Tuesday’S Midterm Elections
    District Policy Group provides top-line outcomes and insight, with emphasis on health care policy and appropriations, regarding Tuesday’s midterm elections. Election Outcome and Impact on Outlook for 114th Congress: With the conclusion of Tuesday’s midterm elections, we have officially entered that Lame Duck period of time between the end of one Congress and the start of another. Yesterday’s results brought with them outcomes that were both surprising and those that were long-anticipated. For the next two years, the House and Senate will be controlled by the Republicans. However, regardless of the predictions that pundits made, the votes are in, Members of the 114th Congress (2015-2016) have been determined, and we can now begin to speculate about what these changes will mean for business interests and advocacy organizations. Even though we now have a Republican majority in Congress, for the next two years, President Obama remains resident at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Although President Obama will be a Lame Duck President, he still has issues and priority policies he wishes to pursue. Many other Lame Duck presidents have faced Congresses controlled by the opposite party and how a President responds to the challenge often can determine his legacy. Given the total number of Republican pick-ups in the House and Senate, we anticipate the GOP will feel emboldened to pursue its top policy priorities; as such, we do not suspect that collaboration and bipartisanship will suddenly arrive at the Capitol. We anticipate the Democrats will work hard to try to keep their caucus together, but this may prove challenging for Senate Minority Leader Reid, especially with the moderate Democrats and Independents possibly deciding to ally with the GOP.

    This issue brought to you by Georgia Senate: The Road to Redemption By Jacob Rubashkin JUNE 19, 2020 VOLUME 4, NO. 12 Jon Ossoff has been the punchline of an expensive joke for the last three years. But the one-time failed House candidate might get the last laugh in a Senate race that has been out of the spotlight until recently. 2020 Senate Ratings Much of the attention around Georgia has focused on whether it’s a Toss-Up presidential battleground and the special election to fill the seat left by GOP Sen.

  • Presidential Fatigue Hits Gen Z Users, Shows Oath's News Data
    Presidential Fatigue Hits Gen Z Users, Shows Oath’s News Data By [oath News Team] -- TBC Source: oath News Analytics - Longitudinal Trends across Generation X, Millennial, and Generation Z The common assumption is that anyone engaged in current events today is focused on U.S. politics, but the data shows that it actually depends on your generation. Gen Z is focused on a diverse array of issues and are largely isolated from the obsessive focus on national politics seen in other generations. Since they are the next generation to come online as voters (beginning in 2018 for the oldest Gen Zers), should we be concerned for the next election? Oath News data on longitudinal trends across Gen X, Millennials and Gen Z show that while the November 8th presidential election drew people from all age groups on presidential topics, trends for Gen X and Millennial are also similar. Gen Z has the most diverse interest over time and was the only group with significant discussion in international politics and society related stories. The US elections, Brexit, France’s landmark presidential election, and the unfortunate terrorist attacks over the past year prompted us to dig deeper into our news platform, to see how these events may have impacted our communities. This analysis was conducted through a review of over 100 million comments, of which 3 million were analyzed to define the top 10 trending US hosted articles per month ranked by total comments. Included in this analysis were comments generated within the flagship mobile app Newsroom iOS and Android, and across our biggest news platforms Yahoo.com and Yahoo News.

    Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2017 Remarks at a "Make America Great Again Rally" in Cedar Rapids, Iowa June 21, 2017 Audience members. U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.! The President. Thank you, everybody. It is great to be back in the incredible, beautiful, great State of Iowa, home of the greatest wrestlers in the world, including our friend, Dan Gable. Some of the great, great wrestlers of the world, right? We love those wrestlers. It's always terrific to be able to leave that Washington swamp and spend time with the truly hard-working people. We call them American patriots, amazing people. I want to also extend our congratulations this evening to Karen Handel of Georgia. And we can't forget Ralph Norman in South Carolina. He called me, and I called him. He said, you know, last night I felt like the forgotten man. But he won, and he won really beautifully, even though most people—a lot of people didn't show up because they thought he was going to win by so much. It's always dangerous to have those big leads. But he won very easily, and he is a terrific guy. And I'll tell you what, Karen is going to be really incredible. She is going to be joining some wonderful people and doing some wonderful work, including major, major tax cuts and health care and lots of things. Going to be reducing crime, and we're securing that Second Amendment. I told you about that. And that looks like it's in good shape with Judge Gorsuch.

    FEED THE FUTURE: PARTNERSHIPS FOR A FOOD- SECURE 2030 Moderator Secretary Tom Vilsack U.S. Department of Agriculture @USDA Tom Vilsack serves as the Nation's 30th Secretary of Agriculture. As leader of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Vilsack is working hard to strengthen the American agricultural economy, build vibrant rural communities and create new markets for the tremendous innovation of rural America. In more than six years at the Department, Vilsack has worked to implement President Obama's agenda to put Americans back to work and create an economy built to last. USDA has supported America's farmers, ranchers and growers who are driving the rural economy forward, provided food assistance to millions of Americans, carried out record conservation efforts, made record investments in our rural communities and helped provide a safe, sufficient and nutritious food supply for the American people. The Obama Administration and USDA have made historic investments in America's rural communities, helping create ladders of opportunity for rural people and building thriving rural economies for the long term. As chair of the first-ever White House Rural Council, Secretary Vilsack and USDA are taking steps to strengthen services for rural businesses and entrepreneurs by finding new ways to make the connection between the demand for investment in rural areas and the financial community. USDA is promoting American agriculture by conducting cutting-edge research and expanding markets at home and abroad. The years 2009-2014 represent the strongest six years in history for agricultural trade, and new trade agreements President Obama signed with Colombia, South Korea and Panama will create even more export opportunities for American farmers and ranchers.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.
