These eight counties are situated between the Mississippi River to the west, the Ohio River to the north, and the Tennessee River to the east, with the Tennessee State line forming the southern boundary. Much of the area sits atop of the New Madrid Fault, one of the three largest fault lines in the United States. The major agricultural enterprises are grain, soybean, tobacco, swine, poultry, and beef cattle production. The major nonfarm industries include retail services and tire, paper, atomic, and chemical production facilities. Major resources include fertile soils, ample rainfall, forests, and water. Minor resources include sand, gravel, and clay deposits. The area’s population is predominantly rural, with 66 percent living in outlying areas and 24 percent living in the commercial hub of Paducah, in McCracken County. The largest employer in the RC&D area is the agricultural industry. However, the seasonally adjusted unemployment figures peak at as much as 11 percent in some counties, forcing many of the young people to leave the area in search of full-time employment.

    Brett Guthrie SECOND DISTRICT, KENTUCKY. Congress of the United States. House of Representatives. November 13, 2012. The Honorable Ben Bernanke The Honorable Martin Gruenberg Chairman Acting Chairman Federal Reserve System Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation 20th Street and Constitution Ave. NW 550 17th Street NW Washington, DC 20551. Washington, DC 20429. The Honorable Thomas Curry Comptroller Office of the Comptroller of the Currency 250 E Street SW Washington, DC 20219. Dear Chairman Bernanke, Comptroller Curry, and Acting Chairman Gruenberg: As Members of Congress representing districts within the Commonwealth of Kentucky, we are writing to express our concerns regarding the proposed rules issued by your agencies pursuant to the Basel Committee's Basel I I I capital requirements. Specifically, we are concerned that applying Basel I I I standards to community banks would severely damage a lending model that plays a crucial role in our districts, while doing little, if anything, to address the concerns underpinning Basel I I I. As you are aware, Basel I I I was designed to harmonize global capital standards as well as improve the global financial system's resilience to future downturns. We agree without question that adequate supervision of the international banking system is essential to avoiding future financial crises; however, we do not believe that it is appropriate to apply the same regulatory standards for large national and multinational banks to community banks. Community banks are different from larger banks in both size and scope. Community banks are not involved in the complicated capital market transactions that Basel I I I was designed to address, and as such, we do not believe that there is value in requiring them to engage in the same risk management practices as those that do.

This transition reached its cLimax after the 1994 eLections, after which Democrats ceased to hold the maJority of House seats in the South, never to regain that strength. However, Democrats continued to win a decent share of House seats in the South after 1994, with about 40% of Southern House seats being won by Democrats untiL the 2010 eLections, after which Democrats shrunk to a much smaLLer minority.

  • This Week in Review – September 17-21, 2012
    This Week in Review – September 17-21, 2012 (1) House Passes Coal Bill That Would Amend Clean Air Act (September 21, 2012) – By a vote of 233 to 175, the House passed H.R. 3409, the Coal Miner Employment and Domestic Energy Infrastructure Act, which packages together a number of bills, including the Energy Tax Prevention Act of 2011 and the Transparency in Regulatory Analysis of Impacts on Nation (TRAIN) Act. The Energy Tax Prevention Act would prohibit EPA from promulgating any regulation concerning, taking any action relating to, or taking into consideration the emissions of a greenhouse gas (GHG) to address climate change. It would repeal the GHG Endangerment and Cause or Contribute Finding (74 Federal Register 66496), the Mandatory Reporting of GHGs Rule (74 Federal Register 56260) and all GHG permitting and permitting-related rules the agency has issued through December 30, 2010, including the Tailoring Rule (75 Federal Register 31514). The bill would preserve the Model Year 2012-2016 Light-Duty Vehicle GHG Emissions Standards and Corporate Average Fuel Economy Standards (75 Federal Register 25324) and the GHG Emissions Standards and Fuel Efficiency Standards for Medium- and Heavy-Duty Engines and Vehicles (76 Federal Register 57106), but would prohibit EPA from issuing any future waivers to California for GHG emissions standards for cars. The TRAIN Act would create a committee of government officials to review the cumulative impact on the economy of a number of EPA rules issued under the Clean Air Act, including the ozone, sulfur

I proceeded, then, to obtain an “unofficial minor” in Professor Meinke by taking three more of his courses. I am sincerely grateful for all of his teaching, advice, and encouragement throughout my academic career, culminating in these past two semesters of research. He has served as an invaluable resource and a formative component in my four years at Bucknell.
