Mr. Clerk. THE CLERK: On page 18, Calendar 510, Substitute for House Bill Number 5237, AN ACT CONCERNING FAIR CHANCE EMPLOYMENT. It's amended by House A. THE CHAIR: Senator Gomes. SENATOR GOMES ,(23RD): 0 Thank you, Madam President. I move acceptance of the Joint Committee's favorable report and passage of the bill in concurrence with the House of Representatives as amended House Amendment Schedule A. THE CHAIR: Please continue. SENATOR GOMES (23RD) : The bill prohibits employers from asking about a prospective employee's prior arrest, criminal charges, or convictions on an initial employment application unless, one, the employer must do so under state or federal law, or two, the prospective employee is applying for a position for which the 0 003010 /je 260 SENATE May 4, 2016 employer must obtain a security or Fidelity bond or equivalent bond. THE CHAIR: Thank you very much, Senator Gomes. Senator Hwang. SENATOR HWANG (28TH) : Thank you, Madam President. I rise in support of this bill. It's been a bill that's a work in progress. It is an opportunity for people with reentry and an opportunity to start a new career and move themselves forward. I appreciate the good work of Senator Gomes. He himself with a personal history of accomplishment and reentry, so I urge support of this bill. Thank you. THE CHAIR: Senator Fasano. SENATOR FASANO (34TH): Thank you, Madam President. If I may, to Senator Hwang. THE CHAIR: To Senator Hwang, sir? Please continue. SENATOR FASANO (34TH) : Through you, Madam President. This being on the box, it's my understanding that when you make the application you cannot ask the applicant whether or not they have a criminal record -0 003011 /je 261 SENATE May 4, 2016 at the time that the application is made, is that correct? SENATOR HWANG (28TH): That is correct, sir. SENATOR FASANO (34TH): My understanding is that gets you into the door so you can, if you are selected, that you could have a conversation with the employer and at that time the employer can ask you, have you ever been arrested. Is that correct? SENATOR HWANG (28TH): Through you, Madam President, yes. () SENATOR FASANO (34TH) : Through you, Madam President. At that point in time, the employee, potential employee could describe what the circumstances were as he disclosed the arrest, explain himself or herself, and the employer could have a better understanding of the who the person they are dealing with as opposed to just a paper saying they were arrested. They're there and they could explain all the circumstances. Is that accurate? Through you, Madam President. THE CHAIR: Senator Hwang. 003012 /je 262 SENATE May 4, 2016 0 SEN. HWANG (28TH): Through you, Madam President. It is a perfect balance and description of allowing employers an opportunity to vet and to evaluate the candidate but at the same time create an opportunity in an applicant to have an opportunity to engage in that conversation. Through you, Madam President. THE CHAIR: Senator Fasano. SENATOR FASANO (34TH): I thank Senator Hwang for his answers today. If I 0 may, I'd like to ask Senator Gomes a question or two. Through you. THE CHAIR: Senator Gomes, if you could prepare yourself. SENATOR FASANO (34TH): Through you, Madam President, to Senator Gomes. It's my understanding that there's been an experience where people may check off that they've been arrested and not be able to get the opportunity to have an interview and explain the issues that they're presented with. Is that your understanding? 0 003013 /je 263 SENATE May 4, 2016 0 Through you, Madam President. SENATOR GOMES (23RD) : Through you, Madam President, that's correct. THE CHAIR: Go ahead Senator Gomes. SENATOR GOMES (23RD): That is correct. SENATOR FASANO (34TH): And that this bill would allow that free flow of information and still allow the employer the opportunity to look at those issues but at least 0 give the opportunity to the employee to come in and explain. Is that your understanding as well, sir? THE CHAIR: Senator Gomes. SENATOR GOMES (23RD): Through you, Madam President. That is correct, yes, to give a conditional employment offer. THE CHAIR: Senator Fasano. SENATOR GOMES (23RD) : 0 003014 /je 264 SENATE May 4, 2016 0 That is what that is called. THE CHAIR: Senator Fasano. SENATOR FASANO (34TH) : Thank you, Madam President. Thank you, Senator Gomes. Madam President, I think this is a great bill. This is a bill that allows people to, who have made mistakes in their lives to get in the door and say, hey, I've made a mistake. This is who I am. Here are the good things I've done. Yes, I have a criminal record. These are the circumstances or this is how long ago, how long ago it was, and 0 people are not judged just be a simple application without the ability of their personality, their charisma to come through. Madam President, I'm fully supportive of this bill. THE CHAIR: Thank you very much, Senator Fasano. Senator McLachlan. SENATOR MCLACHLAN (24TH) : Thank you, Madam President. A question to the proponent of the bill, please. THE CHAIR: Please proceed, sir . .. o 003015 /je 265 SENATE May 4, 2016 0 SENATOR MCLACHLAN (24TH) : Thank you, Madam President. Senator Gomes, should this bill pass, in the event of a potential employer making a conditional offer of employment and subsequently runs a background check and discovers a background that they are uncomfortable with, is there any recourse of the potential employee when the employer says no? Through you, Madam President. THE CHAIR: Senator Gomes. SENATOR GOMES (23RD): Through you, Madam President. Yes, there is. The 0 bill allows a prospective employee to file a complaint with the Labor Commission alleging a violation of this prohibition and subjects violation violated through a $300 per violation civil penalty imposed by the Labor Department. It also allows someone to file a complaint with the Commission alleging an employer's violation of existing law on employment-related criminal record checks. THE CHAIR: Senator McLachlan. SENATOR MCLACHLAN (24TH) : Thank you, Madam President. For further clarification, Senator Gomes, I may have misspoken my question to you. I'm assuming that 0 003016 /je 266 SENATE May 4, 2016 0 there is a conditional offer of employment and the employer then runs a background check and determines from the background check they are uncomfortable with the offer of employment and rescinds the offer of employment. What happens then under this proposed legislation? Through you, Madam President. THE CHAIR: Senator Gomes. SENATOR GOMES (23RD) : Well that would depend, through you, Madam President, to the good Senator, that would depend on what after the conditional offer of employment has been made and then they went into the credit, I mean not a credit check, but a check on an employee, whatever happens or whatever the results are, what they find out would determine whether or not this employee will be a viable employee for them. THE CHAIR: Senator McLachlan. The Senate will stand as ease for a second please. (Senate at ease.) The Senate will come back to order. Senator McLachlan. SENATOR MCLACHLAN (24TH): 0 003017 /je 267 SENATE May 4, 2016 0 Thank you, Madam President. I have no further questions for Senator Gomes. Thank you. THE CHAIR: Thank you very, very much. Will you remark further? Will you remark further? Senator Fasano. SENATOR FASANO (34TH): Madam President, if I may, it's my understanding that with respect to this bill with respect to the questions by Senator McLachlan, I just want to make sure I got this absolutely correct, and if ~ could ask Senator Hwang a question or two. THE CHAIR: Please proceed. Senator Hwang. SENATOR FASANO (34TH): Thank you. Senator Hwang, it's my understanding that you fill out an application, you don't check a box, you get into the employer's office, before he offers you a terms of employment, you could ask the question about the background, about the person's background, has he been arrested. Is that correct? THE CHAIR: Senator Hwang. SEN. HWANG (28TH): Through you, Madam President. That has been the reflected change in that, yes sir. 0 003018 /je 268 SENATE May 4, 2016 THE CHAIR: Senator Fasano. SENATOR FASANO (34TH): So it no longer reads that you have to make the offer of employment and then do a background check. That's not what the bill says, correct? THE CHAIR: Senator Hwang. SEN. HWANG (28TH): As I understand it, through you, Madam President, yes. It is creating that balance and allowing the 0 employer the opportunity to vet the individual and have that conversation. Through you, Madam President.

  • Q&A: Meet KVOO's Dena Fletcher Honor Roll
    August 26 2019, Issue 668 Q&A: Meet KVOO’s Dena Fletcher Newly minted KVOO/Tulsa PD Dena Fletcher (CAT 7/12) spent more than a dozen years at crosstown Cox Classic Rock KSJR before making the move to Country. Her trip across the street reunites her with Griffin/Tulsa Dir./Radio Operations & Programming Steve Hunter, who gave Fletcher her first PD gig in 2007. She spoke with Country Aircheck about her radio roots, her programming philosophy and what most appeals to her about Country radio. CA: When were you first bitten by the radio bug? DF: During junior college in Odessa, Texas, I was focused on journalism, but a friend Dena Fletcher suggested a give radio a try for fun. College radio was so much fun that by my second semester, I was the student PD – probably because no one else wanted the job. It was actual work and didn’t pay, but I loved it. Shortly thereafter, I started Indy Go: Broken Bow’s Jason Aldean (c) in Indianapolis with working at a local Rock station and it was off to the races. (l-r) WFMS’ Boomer Layfield, Albright & O’Malley & Brenner’s Do you recall your earliest memories of interacting Dan VanLandingham, the label’s Dawn Ferris, WLHK’s Cara with radio as a medium and a listener? Denis, WFMS’ Adam Kashner and WLHK’s Krystal Keithley, Kyle Knezevich and Jackie Robinson. Like most radio people, I was hanging out in my room listening to the radio as a kid. I lived in a fairly remote part of West Texas, so that was my connection to the rest of the world.

  • Romans #6 - Crazy Grace Bad News for “Good” People
    Romans #6 - Crazy Grace Bad News For “Good” People - Well, are you having a good day? - [Audience] Yes. - I'm about to ruin it. We're in Romans 3. We're going through a great book of the Bible. We're in Romans 3 and in Romans 1 and 2, Paul tells us that God's evaluation of the human condition is that we are sinners that we're fallen, that we're the problem, and we're not the solution. It's a bit like going to your doctor and your doctor being really honest with you. I'll give you an example from my own life. Some years ago, I wasn't doing well physically, I had allergies and I was getting bloody noses and I couldn't sleep, and I had heartburn and I was just not well, I had a nervous eye twitch because I was stressed, everybody in the church thought I was flirting with them. I wasn't, I was just a little freaked out. And what happened then was, one of my kids, looked at grace who was in the third trimester with one of our soon to be born children and looked at me and said, "Daddy, are you having a baby too?" And I was like, "No, I'm having an ice cream baby. I need to make some lifestyle changes." So I go to the doctor and the doctor says "Okay, you need a heartburn medicine, you need sleep medicine. You need anxiety meds, all of these medicines. And so then you do the terrifying thing where you look at the potential side effects.

    September 3 2019, Issue 669 Pick Six: Label Draft 2019 Seven years ago, Country Aircheck’s Fantasy Label Draft began as an entertaining forum for radio pros to chat about artists and make bold predictions for the year to come. For the first six seasons, VP/GM Chuck Aly served as commissioner and declared winners based upon a method that is just questionable enough to have come from the New England Patriots’ camp, “Chuck’s Eyeball Test.” But this is 2019, and all bets are off. No participation trophies here! What good is a game without a winner? And how do you declare a winner without a score? As a new commissioner takes the field, a painstaking analysis was done to determine a fair- yet-competitive points system, which has been ratified by this year’s ownership group – KUPL/Portland’s MoJoe Roberts; KFRG/ Riverside, CA’s Heather Kind Of A Pig Deal: Premiere’s Bobby Bones, coach Chad Morris, Froglear; KRYS/Corpus Valory’s Justin Moore and singer/songwriter Joe Nichols (l-r) at MoJoe Roberts Kay Manley the Arkansas Razorbacks game Saturday (8/31).

  • Do You Believe in Hell? Belcroft Bible Church Pastor Matt White 6 June 2021
    Do You Believe in Hell? Belcroft Bible Church Pastor Matt White 6 June 2021 Please turn in your copy of God's Word to Mark, Mark chapter 9, verses 42 to 48, Mark chapter 9, verses 42 to 48. It's been a few weeks since I've been here, but that should be no shock to anybody that that's where we turn this morning. We go back to our verse-by-verse exposition of this gospel account. And, just by way of reminder, I want all of us to be clear that John Mark’s purpose in writing this book is our passion as we study it. We have been years in this journey through Mark that we might—here you go—see Christ rightly, in order to submit to him and follow him fully. Today, we learn once more at the feet of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. But I warn you that what he will teach us this morning deals with one of the most difficult and hated truths in all the Scriptures, the reality and ramifications of hell. You follow along silently, now, as I read our passage aloud. Hear the word of the Lord: “Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were hung around his neck and he were thrown into the sea. And if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than with two hands to go to hell, to the unquenchable fire.

  • 'Hell Joseon' Is More Like It As Economy Flounders
    LUND UNIVERSITY • CENTRE FOR EAST AND SOUTH-EAST ASIAN STUDIES ‘Hell Joseon’ - Tales from a South Korean Youth Trapped Between Past and Present Author: Johan Cornelis Schoonhoven Supervisor: Erik Mobrand Master’s Programme in Asian Studies Spring semester 2017 Abstract This thesis takes its outset in the newly coined expression ‘Hell Joseon’ used by the youth in South Korea. ‘Hell Joseon’ is a comparison between today’s society and the pre-modern Joseon Dynasty. By asking “what are the main characteristics of life in ‘Hell Joseon’ from a youth perspective?”, I arrive at the following conclusion. Life in ‘Hell Joseon’ is highly characterized by discrepancies between rich and poor, old and young, men and women, global and local. This is a peculiar result of Korea’s double-compressed modernity which derives from a colonial legacy, top-down modernization in the post-war era and condensed transition to a neoliberal world economy, also known as the second modernity. Therefore, traditional and (post)modern elements coexist in Korea’s society, and is partly the reason why the youth are now drawing references to the pre-modern Joseon Dynasty. Life in ‘Hell Joseon’ thus implies frustrations over high unemployment rates, a new ‘spoon class’ class division, lack of social mobility, an education fever and a downright “gender war”. More than that, it shows traces of apathy in the fact that the young generation is giving up marriage, children, jobs, hope, housing etc., but also traces of transformation since the ‘Hell Joseon’ discourse have made the youth take it to the streets, last seen in the mass demonstrations against now impeached President Park Geun-hye.

  • Why Jesus Is Hated Mark 12:1-12 Rev. Brian Bill September 23-24, 2017 I
    Why Jesus is Hated Mark 12:1-12 Rev. Brian Bill September 23-24, 2017 I wanted to apologize for something. I feel badly that I’ve let something slide. Many of you are no doubt wondering about it so I thought I better make it right. Pardon me for going a couple months without showing pictures of our grandson. Here’s a recent picture of Pip on a swing at a park. He’s also really into books. I mean, really into books. He loves being read to and following the storyline. At his age he prefers books with few words and lots of pictures (like his grandpa). Many of us first heard stories from our parents or grandparents (by the way, our newest Growth Group is called Extreme Grandparenting – it meets right here at 4:00 pm on Sundays). His dad Jamie describes the process Pip goes through when he’s read to: “His eyes comb the surface as if he’s afraid he’ll miss something as you read…sometimes he’ll bring you the same book a hundred times in a day and sometimes it’s a new book every ten seconds.” Lydia says, “He will bring a book and put it in our hands or lap to let us know he wants to read it. He has favorites where he copies word sounds and points out characters and things on the pages.” In a similar way, young Israelite children were well versed in certain stories and allegories. Most would have grown up knowing that the grapevine was an illustration of Israel.
