  • CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE August 7, 2020
    MCALVEY MERCHANT & ASSOCIATES CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE August 7, 2020 CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE WEEK OF AUGUST 3, 2020 Integrity, Individual Attention. Precision Strategy. Proven Results RECORD-SETTING PRIMARY ELECTIONS A record number of voters participated in Michigan’s primary election on Aug. 4, with more than 2.5 million people casting a vote either in person or by absentee ballot. One of the most followed races in the primary was the 13th Congressional District rematch between U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Detroit) and Detroit City Council President Brenda Jones. Jones represented the district for a few weeks in 2018, following the resignation of Rep. John Conyers (D-Detroit) in December 2017. After his resignation, there were two elections for the seat with Jones winning the special election to complete Conyers unexpired term, and Tlaib winning the regular race for the Congressional seat. This year, Tlaib and Jones were the only primary candidates. On Tuesday, Tlaib won the strongly Democratic district with nearly twice as many votes as Jones, potentially guaranteeing her a second term. In the 3rd Congressional District in West Michigan, Republican Peter Meijer, a U.S. Army veteran whose family founded the well-known Meijer retail chain, won a five-way contest with more than 50 percent of the vote, including holding a strong lead over his main opponent Rep. Lynn Afendoulis. Meijer will face Democratic attorney Hillary Scholten. The winner of that race will succeed U.S. Rep. Justin Amash, a former Republican turned Libertarian who is not seeking reelection. In the 10th Congressional District, a Republican stronghold in the Thumb region, Republican businesswoman Lisa McClain of Bruce Township, a pro-Trump Republican who outspent her opponents, beat state Rep.

  • CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE January 27, 2017
    MCALVEY MERCHANT & ASSOCIATES CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE January 27, 2017 CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE WEEK OF JANUARY 23, 2017 Integrity, Individual Attention. Precision Strategy. Proven Results SCHOOL REFORM OFFICE RELEASES LIST OF POOR-PERFORMING PUBLIC SCHOOLS SET TO CLOSE On Jan. 20. the state School Reform Office released a list of 38 schools facing closure by the end of the school year due to poor academic performance. The list includes 24 schools in the Detroit Public Schools Community District and the state-created Education Achievement Authority in the city of Detroit. The SRO had discussed the potential closures months ago, warning schools that they could be shut down if they showed no academic improvement and continued poor performance from 2014 to 2016. The action could impact more than 18,000 students. The SRO is in the process of sending out closure notices, and has already sent letters to parents of children who attend classes in the 38 schools. It is also in the process of examining which other public schools the children would attend if their school closes. If a school closing creates an unreasonable hardship on the students, or all the other surrounding public schools also on the list, the SRO will pursue other options. Senate Education Committee Chair Phil Pavlov (R-St. Clair) is looking into repealing the state’s “failing schools” law and creating one system to explain how schools are placed on the list. The SRO also announced 79 schools were being released from the state’s Priority School list. HOUSE ANNOUNCES COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS FOR 2017-18 House Republicans announced their 2017-2018 committee assignments, including 11 freshman with chairmanship.

  • The Federal Advisor a Policy and Political Update from Washington, D.C
    The Federal Advisor A policy and political update from Washington, D.C. January 2021 Dear Friends, On Wednesday, January 13th, the House voted to impeach President Trump for the second time, charging him with “incitement of insurrection” after the violence and rioting last week at the Capitol, where five people tragically died. With that vote, he is the only President in history to be impeached twice. The final vote tally was 232 to 197, with 10 Republicans in support. The timing and next steps of a possible Senate trial are unclear, though Leader McConnell indicated that there will be no trial before Mr. Biden is inaugurated next week. See below for more on Derek N. Harley Senior Vice President of Federal Affairs the impeachment vote and what’s next.

  • April 26, 2021 the Honorable Rosa Delauro Chairwoman U.S. House
    April 26, 2021 The Honorable Rosa DeLauro The Honorable Tom Cole Chairwoman Ranking Member U.S. House Subcommittee on Labor, Health U.S. House Appropriations Subcommittee and Human Services, Education and Related on Labor, Health and Human Services, Agencies Education and Related Agencies 2358-B Rayburn House Office Building 1016 Longworth House Office Building Washington, DC Washington, DC 20515 Chairwoman DeLauro and Ranking Member Cole, As you develop the Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations bill, we are writing to respectfully request that you provide robust funding for the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG). Recognizing the need to direct taxpayer resources to programs that can demonstrate a return on federal investments, quality child care - which has a strong evidence base - plays a crucial role in supporting children's healthy development, learning, and school readiness, while also enabling parents to work, train, or pursue an education. In this way, CCDBG not only improves future opportunities for children, but also invests in parents by supporting their ability to work and be successful. Prior to the coronavirus pandemic, families at every income level struggled to find and afford high-quality care, and less than twenty percent of eligible children received support through the CCDBG subsidy program. These challenges have only been exacerbated over the last year, and now, more than ever, access to affordable high-quality child care remains a barrier for many parents who wish to enter and remain in the workforce. Given the importance of this program to working families across the country and the fundamental role of child care in our economic recovery, there is a critical need for robust CCDBG funding.
