  • The Congressional Progressive Caucus Co-Chairs, Mark Pocan (D
    The Congressional Progressive Caucus Co-Chairs, Mark Pocan (D-WI) and Raúl Grijalva (D-AZ), joined constitutional authorities, activists, and other CPC leaders in applauding Senators Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Mike Lee (R-UT), and Chris Murphy (D-CT) for their introduction of S.J. Res. 54 to end the illegal U.S. war alongside Saudi Arabia against Yemen’s Houthis. The Senators’ joint resolution closely parallels bipartisan House resolution H. Con. Res. 81, introduced in September 2017 by CPC Vice Chair Ro Khanna, CPC Co-Chair Mark Pocan, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Rep. Walter B. Jones (R-NC). H. Con. Res. 81, which invokes the War Powers Resolution of 1973 to remove U.S. forces from unauthorized hostilities, was co-sponsored by 38 CPC Members and was endorsed by the Congressional Progressive Caucus: “By allowing endless, unauthorized wars, Congress has abdicated its responsibility to uphold the Constitution. In the face of what is currently the world’s worst humanitarian crisis, triggered by our secretive, illegal war in Yemen waged alongside the Saudi regime, we welcome the resolution introduced by Congressional Progressive Caucus founding member, Senator Bernie Sanders, and Republican Senator Mike Lee, to remove U.S. forces from that senseless conflict. We strongly urge our Senate colleagues to co-sponsor and vote in support of the Sanders-Lee resolution. For progressives who recognize the unique threat to peace posed by the current president and the far- reaching authorities he has seized, nothing is more urgent than working across the aisle to reassert Congress’s constitutional powers and rein in an out-of-control executive branch.” —Congressmen Mark Pocan (D-WI) and Raul Grijalva (D-AZ), Co-chairs of the Congressional Progressive Caucus “Our nation’s military involvement in Yemen, the worst humanitarian crisis in our modern world, is unconstitutional and unauthorized.

  • 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.

    Wednesday, March 9, 2011 Union Station, East Hall Washington, DC The Congressional Caucus for Women’s Issues was founded on April 19, 1977, by a small, bipartisan group of Congresswomen who gathered in a room in the U.S. Capitol to discuss the problem of spousal abuse. In the years that followed, the ever-increasing numbers of women elected to Congress have continued to meet to discuss and act on a wide range of issues affecting women and their families. The bipartisan spirit and cooperation reflected in the Caucus leadership continues today. Congressional Caucus for Women’s Issues Co-Chairs Reps. Cynthia Lummis and Gwen Moore Vice-Chairs Reps.

  • August 10, 2021 the Honorable Nancy Pelosi the Honorable Steny
    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.

The Honorable Ben Bernanke The Honorable Tom Curry Chairman Comptroller The Federal Reserve System Office of the Comptroller of the Currency 20th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, 250 E.

Regulatory Capital, Implementation of Basel I I I, Minimum Regulatory Capital Ratios, Capital Adequacy, Transition Provisions, and Prompt Correction Act: Docket Number R-1442; RIN 3064-AD95; Docket ID OCC-2012-0008; and (2).

Dear Chairman Bernanke, Acting Chairman Gruenberg, and Comptroller Curry: The undersigned Members of Congress representing the State of Wisconsin respectfully submit the following comments expressing concerns with the potential impact that Basel I I I regulatory capital requirements may have on community banks in Wisconsin. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act already imposes minimum capital and risk-based capital requirements on all banks, and banks are complying with these requirements. In addition, the agreement reached by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (Basel I I I) has prompted your various agencies to release a joint notice of proposed rulemakings to revise risk-based and leverage requirements that will apply to all U.S. banks, with the exception of bank holding companies that have consolidated assets of less than $500 million.

    State and federal representatives to support Appvion at U.S. International Trade Commission hearing Commission to decide whether to extend antidumping and countervailing duty orders on lightweight thermal paper from China and Germany (Appleton, Wis., October 29, 2014) A group of 14 U.S. senators, representatives and governors from five states will provide testimony and written statements on behalf of Appvion, Inc. for a key hearing at the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) on October 30 in Washington, D.C. The ITC hearing is being held in advance of a ruling on whether or not to extend the antidumping and countervailing duty orders on imports of lightweight thermal paper from China and Germany. The ITC is scheduled to vote on the matter on December 17. Strong support from elected officials Wisconsin Senator Tammy Baldwin, Wisconsin Representatives Reid Ribble and Tom Petri, and Ohio Representative Michael Turner will deliver testimony on behalf of Appvion at the hearing. Ohio Senators Sherrod Brown and Rob Portman; Pennsylvania Senator Bob Casey; Wisconsin Representative Ron Kind; Pennsylvania Representative Bill Shuster; Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker; and Pennsylvania Governor Tom Corbett will submit statements to the ITC supporting Appvion. Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell; Kentucky Representative Brett Guthrie; and Kentucky Governor Steve Beshear will also submit statements in support of Appvion and its base paper supplier Domtar Corporation. Appvion chief executive officer, Mark Richards, and other Appvion executives will testify that the dumped and subsidized imports of lightweight thermal paper from China and Germany will continue to harm lightweight thermal paper producers in the U.S., and as a result corrective duties imposed on the foreign imports should remain in place.
