Organization OonstituHurud and Legal llesearch.-Under the general snper,·ision of J oscph \Voods, this section is providing the legnl suppcn·t for the office. As legal questions arise, they nre referred to tins section for research, analysis and report. The major project at this timu is the research into the constitutional issue of defining the g1·mmcls for im­ peachment. Factual lnmestigation.-This work is under the general supervi­ sion of Richard L. Cates and Bernard ,v. Nussbiium, both experienced attoi·neys with many years of pmctice. The group is organized into task forces with a task force leader in charge of each. The task forres are collecting and examining an the evidence available-both uxc1J­ patory and inculpatory-ii1 the six folJowing categories: 1. Allegations concerning clon,estic sm·,·eilhmce acti\'itil"s con­ ducted by or at the'direction of the T.'11ite House; 2. Allega~ion~ concernh1g if!telligence activities concluetecl by or at the direction of the. '\Vlute House for the purposes of the Presidential ele~tion of 1972; _3. Allegations conceri1ing the, ,varergate break-in aiul related activitiC$, incluaing alleged efforts by persons in the W'J1ite House and others to "cover i.ip" such activities and others; 4. Alleged improprieties in connection with th~ personal fi- nances of the President; " _ , · 5. The allegati01.s conceming efforts by the White House to use agencies of the Executive Branch for, political 1>urposes, nnd alleied White House im1plvement with illegal cnmpnigii coiltri- but1ons; . _, , 6. 'fhe allegations concerning other misconduct that do not fall within one of the foregoing categories, such as the secret bombing of CambQdia, impoundment of funds. , In the paragraphs t1mt follow on page 2, I have enden.vored to off er a represent,ative selectioit of· events under investigation. I iun listing these ex~mp}es only because I want to give the Committee n rough idea of our work. I want to emphasize that the events men­ tioned are merely examples, that· the list is by no means exhaustive 1t11d that the selection does not r~prescnt any judgment by this office concefoing the relative gmvity of, the a1legahons. Furthermore, the mere fact that we are. undertaking fovestigntion into a particular sub­ ject- shou.ld not bP. i,nterpreted to 1:1ea11Jh&t we think: there ,y_lls any wrongdomg there, p~• that, any preJud~men~ of the ev1denc~ has been made.

    August 10, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Steny Hoyer Speaker Majority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader Hoyer, As we advance legislation to rebuild and renew America’s infrastructure, we encourage you to continue your commitment to combating the climate crisis by including critical clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives in the upcoming infrastructure package. These incentives will play a critical role in America’s economic recovery, alleviate some of the pollution impacts that have been borne by disadvantaged communities, and help the country build back better and cleaner. The clean energy sector was projected to add 175,000 jobs in 2020 but the COVID-19 pandemic upended the industry and roughly 300,000 clean energy workers were still out of work in the beginning of 2021.1 Clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives are an important part of bringing these workers back. It is critical that these policies support strong labor standards and domestic manufacturing. The importance of clean energy tax policy is made even more apparent and urgent with record- high temperatures in the Pacific Northwest, unprecedented drought across the West, and the impacts of tropical storms felt up and down the East Coast. We ask that the infrastructure package prioritize inclusion of a stable, predictable, and long-term tax platform that: Provides long-term extensions and expansions to the Production Tax Credit and Investment Tax Credit to meet President Biden’s goal of a carbon pollution-free power sector by 2035; Extends and modernizes tax incentives for commercial and residential energy efficiency improvements and residential electrification; Extends and modifies incentives for clean transportation options and alternative fuel infrastructure; and Supports domestic clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation manufacturing.

    1 April 2, 2020 the Honorable Nancy Pelosi Speaker, U.S. House Of

    April 2, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi Speaker, U.S. House of Representatives H-232, United States Capitol Washington, DC 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi: We are grateful for your tireless work to address the needs of all Americans struggling during the COVID-19 pandemic, and for your understanding of the tremendous burdens that have been borne by localities as they work to respond to this crisis and keep their populations safe. However, we are concerned that the COVID-19 relief packages considered thus far have not provided direct funding to stabilize smaller counties, cities, and towns—specifically, those with populations under 500,000. As such, we urge you to include direct stabilization funding to such localities in the next COVID-19 response bill, or to lower the threshold for direct funding through the Coronavirus Relief Fund to localities with smaller populations. Many of us represent districts containing no or few localities with populations above 500,000. Like their larger neighbors, though, these smaller counties, cities, and towns have faced enormous costs while responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. These costs include deploying timely public service announcements to keep Americans informed, rapidly activating emergency operations, readying employees for telework to keep services running, and more. This work is essential to keeping our constituents safe and mitigating the spread of the coronavirus as effectively as possible. We fear that, without targeted stabilization funding, smaller localities will be unable to continue providing these critical services to our constituents at the rate they are currently. We applaud you for including a $200 billion Coronavirus Relief Fund as part of H.R.

    Democracy and the NATO Alliance: Upholding Our Shared Democratic Values”

    Prepared Statement for the Record “Democracy and the NATO Alliance: Upholding our Shared Democratic Values” Susan Corke Senior Fellow, German Marshall Fund and Director of Transatlantic Democracy Working Group House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Europe, Eurasia, Energy, and the Environment U.S. House of Representatives November 13, 2019 Chairman Keating, Ranking Member Kinzinger, Distinguished Members of this Committee, thank you for holding this hearing and inviting me to testify before you on an issue that I believe is fundamental to American security and to our role as a leader of the democratic community of nations. It is a particular honor to be here today because Representatives Keating and Kinzinger have been two of the most principled voices in calling for a reinvigoration of democracy and the NATO Alliance as we contend with an era of authoritarian resurgence. On May 8th they both spoke powerfully at an event hosted by German Marshall Fund and the Transatlantic Democracy Working Group on the need to continue fighting for freedom and the ideals we value most, emphasizing this is in America’s interest. Representative Keating asked a pointed question this event, “What do we have that Russia and China don’t have? A coalition, NATO, that has resulted in 70 years of prosperity and peace.” This year is NATO’s 75th birthday and the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall; these anniversaries could have marked the success of the transatlantic project and the triumph of democracy. Instead, it is clear that after seven decades as the world’s preeminent military alliance, NATO’s future is in danger, facing urgent challenges that require immediate attention, including a recommitment to democratic values as a foundation of our security.

Welcome to Brookings. I'm John Allen; I'm the president of the Institution. You are most welcome today, and for those coming in by webcast, we welcome you as well. Today we're going to be discussing something concerning many of us at this moment in history. It's the growing tide of illiberalism, as it seems to be threatening increasingly democratic institutions and governments on both sides of the Atlantic. I think it's fair to say that we've learned that democracy is not inevitable and it needs to be understood, it needs to be nurtured, it needs to be cared for, and it needs to be guarded with great vigilance.

    A Bipartisan Letter to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi And

    May 28, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker of the House Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives H-232, U.S. Capitol H-204, U.S. Capitol Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader McCarthy: Thank you for your swift action and continuing efforts as we grapple with the COVID-19 pandemic. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act (PL 116-136) provided our physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech-language pathologists with much-needed and meaningful aid to continue patient care operations during this pandemic, the effects of which could be felt for years. However, while Congress is diligently working to protect these important medical practices, they are being targeted for a sizeable cut that is slated to be finalized within the next few weeks. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ (CMS) final CY2020 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule rule published in November 2019 proposed increased rates for the office-based evaluation and management (E/M) code set in CY2021. Due to the requirement for budget neutrality, this would result in a projected eight percent cut for therapy services beginning on January 1, 2021. If these cuts are allowed to go into effect, they will be devasting and will limit access to care for patients, including seniors, who rely on these services. Ultimately, these cuts will force physical and occupational clinics to close, resulting in thousands of qualified professional clinicians, especially those in rural and urban areas in our districts, to lose their jobs.

    March 4, 2021 President Joe Biden the White House 1600

    March 4, 2021 President Joe Biden The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Mr. President: As you finalize your inaugural budget request for Fiscal Year 2022 (FY22), we respectfully urge you to request robust funding for Everglades restoration to support the expeditious completion of numerous projects that are integral to the success of restoration efforts. Specifically, we ask that you include $725 million in the FY22 budget proposal under the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) construction account for South Florida Ecosystem Restoration (SFER). The Everglades is central to Florida’s ecological and economic health, and is the source of drinking water for 8 million Floridians. Restoration of this irreplaceable resource would ensure economic security and a reliable and clean water supply for communities for generations to come. Also, the greater Everglades system supports irreplaceable natural infrastructure that impedes storm surge, saltwater intrusion, and the impacts of sea level rise. As you seek to identify large-scale projects that support economic development and natural climate solutions, we urge you to consider Everglades restoration as a commonsense option for making major progress on such efforts. Florida’s environmental assets attracted 131 million visitors in 2019, directly infusing nearly $100 billion into the state’s economy. Environmental disasters in years prior, such as severe harmful algal blooms, undermined economic stability in communities whose economies are completely dependent on a clean environment. In 2018, environmental disasters related to harmful algal blooms caused tens of millions of dollars in economic losses in some communities, resulting in lost incomes for workers that threatened their ability to feed their families.
