    October 16, 2020 Mr. Jack Dorsey CEO, Twitter Inc. 1355 Market St. #900 San Francisco, CA 94103 Dear Mr. Dorsey: We write with significant concerns regarding the unparalleled actions Twitter recently took to suppress several stories from the New York Post, one of the oldest publications in the United States, that detail troubling allegations regarding Hunter Biden, the son of current Democrat nominee for President, Joe Biden.123 This unprecedented attack, which shows a clear disregard for the spirit of the First Amendment and our country’s long history of open dialogue among citizens, is the latest in a troubling pattern of actions taken by Twitter to target conservative viewpoints on its platform. Such actions include labeling President Trump’s tweets as a threat to “public health” or “public safety” while turning a blind eye to Chinese Communist Party propaganda, unequivocal threats from the Supreme Leader of Iran, and use of your platform to put law enforcement in harm’s way.4 While it has been evident for some time that Twitter and other social media platforms have acted with clear bias against conservative viewpoints and Republican politicians, these latest actions represent an unacceptable escalation and threaten the future of our democratic discourse. During your testimony to the Energy and Commerce Committee in 2018 you stated, “Twitter does not use political ideology to make any decisions.”5 Clearly, this statement is patently false, or the official posture of your company has changed. During your time as CEO, it has become clear that Twitter has no qualms about using the power of its platform to selectively censor certain types of speech to advance a blatant political agenda.

  • CALENDAR Rhode Island At-Large: the Election Democrats Don't Want
    This issue brought to you by Rhode Island At-Large: The Election Democrats Don’t Want to Happen MARCH 5, 2021 VOLUME 5, NO. 5 By Jacob Rubashkin The last time Rhode Island had just one seat in the U.S. House of 2022 Senate Ratings Representatives, there were 15 states in the Union, George Washington BATTLEGROUND was president, and the hottest track in America was Handel’s “Messiah.” The year was 1792. Democratic-Held (4) Republican-Held (4) For the next 230 years, the Ocean State had two (and briefly in the Cortez Masto (D-Nev.) NC Open (Burr, R) 1910s and 20s, three) seats in the House. Hassan (D-N.H.) PA Open (Toomey, R) But according to estimates from the political analysis firm Election Kelly (D-Ariz.) Johnson (R-Wisc.) Data Services, Rhode Island is one of 10 states that is likely to lose a Warnock (D-Ga.) Rubio (R-Fl.) congressional seat in the reapportionment process following the 2020 decennial census. That means that for the first time since the 1790s, the Solid Democratic (10) Solid Republican (16) state will be represented in the House by just one person. Bennet (D-Colo.) AL Open (Shelby, R) In a normal year, it would already be clear if Rhode Island is indeed Blumenthal (D-Conn.) OH Open (Portman, R) losing a seat. The Census Bureau typically delivers reapportionment Duckworth (D-Ill.) Blunt (R-Mo.) data by December 31 of the year of the census. But the pandemic and Padilla (D-Calif.) Boozman (R-Ark.) litigation delayed the process; now the Census Bureau says they hope to Leahy (D-Vt.) Crapo (R-Idaho) deliver the topline reapportionment data by April 30.

  • Membership in the Louisiana House of Representatives
    MEMBERSHIP IN THE LOUISIANA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 1812 - 2024 Revised – July 28, 2021 David R. Poynter Legislative Research Library Louisiana House of Representatives 1 2 PREFACE This publication is a result of research largely drawn from Journals of the Louisiana House of Representatives and Annual Reports of the Louisiana Secretary of State. Other information was obtained from the book, A Look at Louisiana's First Century: 1804-1903, by Leroy Willie, and used with the author's permission. The David R. Poynter Legislative Research Library also maintains a database of House of Representatives membership from 1900 to the present at http://drplibrary.legis.la.gov . In addition to the information included in this biographical listing the database includes death dates when known, district numbers, links to resolutions honoring a representative, citations to resolutions prior to their availability on the legislative website, committee membership, and photographs. The database is an ongoing project and more information is included for recent years. Early research reveals that the term county is interchanged with parish in many sources until 1815. In 1805 the Territory of Orleans was divided into counties. By 1807 an act was passed that divided the Orleans Territory into parishes as well. The counties were not abolished by the act. Both terms were used at the same time until 1845, when a new constitution was adopted and the term "parish" was used as the official political subdivision. The legislature was elected every two years until 1880, when a sitting legislature was elected every four years thereafter. (See the chart near the end of this document.) The War of 1812 started in June of 1812 and continued until a peace treaty in December of 1814.
