  • 1605026 NY Spotlight Memo
    ! MEMORANDUM TO: Interested Parties FROM: Alixandria Lapp, Executive Director, House Majority PAC DATE: May 26, 2016 RE: Congressional Democrats Poised for Pick-Ups Across the Empire State With just over a month until New York’s June 28 congressional primaries, and just under six months from the November general election, Democrats are poised for significant pick-ups in congressional districts across the Empire State. This year Democrats are overwhelmingly on offense in New York – with at least six Republican held seats that could be flipped this November. Multiple Republican incumbents and challengers are finding their already-precarious political prospects diminishing even further as they struggle with a damaging party brand, a toxic presidential ticket-mate, and increasingly prove themselves out of touch with their own districts. Bottom line: With New York’s congressional Republicans increasingly vulnerable heading into the fall, Democrats are overwhelmingly on offense and well-positioned to win key districts across the state in 2016. New York Republicans Tied to Toxic Brand As in any presidential year, down-ballot races will be heavily shaped by the top of the ticket. For Republicans, particularly in New York, that’s bad news. Even before the GOP presidential race took shape, New York’s congressional Republicans faced significant structural political challenges. In six competitive Republican-held districts, President Obama either won or came within 1% of winning in 2008 and 2012. Now with Donald Trump as their presidential ticket-mate, down-ballot prospects for New York Republicans are far worse. Earlier this month, a poll by Morning Consult found that nearly half of all Americans would “be less likely to support candidates for public office if they say they back Donald Trump.” And despite Donald Trump’s big win in New York’s presidential primary, there’s no indication that it will translate to success in November.

  • September 2, 2021 President Joseph R. Biden the White House 1600
    September 2, 2021 President Joseph R. Biden The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW Washington, DC 20500 Dear President Biden: On September 2, 2021, New York Governor Hochul officially requested an Emergency Declaration for the State of New York as a result of the severe impact the storm had. As Members of Congress representing communities directly impacted by the severe winds, heavy rains, and record-breaking flooding, we urge you to issue such a declaration as soon as possible. Last night, our constituents experienced historic flooding and winds from the remnants of Post- Tropical DepressionIda. As a result, thousands of New Yorkers woke up this morning with flooded homes, damaged vehicles, and an inability to access critical public infrastructure like public transportation and hospitals. Tragically, this storm also took numerous lives, with still potentially more people who have not been accounted for. The impact of Ida will also leave us with many significant health and economic strain as the people of our states work to find a safe path to recovery in an already difficult time. New York State has deployed significant resources in response to Ida across the state Department of Transportation, Thruway Authority, Department of Environmental Conservation, Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation, Department of Public Service, New York State Police, New York Power Authority, New York State Canal Corporation, the Canal Corporation, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, Port Authority and Department of Financial Services. Substantial funding will be required in infrastructure repair and debris removal costs that exceed both the per capita threshold and the Statewide threshold.

  • Kevin Johnson on How Congress Polices Itself
    KEVIN JOHNSON HOW CONGRESS POLICES ITSELF News coverage of the controversial comments and social media posts of newly elected Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has brought attention to the question of how the House and Senate discipline their members. Let’s dive into this issue and the related topic of the chambers’ role in deciding election winners. What options do the House and Senate have, and how often do such steps occur? Article 1, Section 5 of the United States Constitution gives the Senate and the House of Representatives the power to expel any member by a two-thirds vote. Expulsion from either house is rare, and most expulsions came about in response to members siding with the insurrection against the United States during the Civil War. Fifteen senators and five representatives have been expelled in U.S. history; all but three during the Civil War. Nineteen of the 20 expelled members were Democrats. The first expulsion was in 1797, for treason. The rare modern instances have involved corruption and bribery scandals. In 1980, the Democrat-controlled House voted to expel Rep. Michael Meyers, a Democrat from Pennsylvania, following his conviction in the Abscam bribery scandal. In 2002, with the House then under Republican control, Democract James Traficant of Ohio was expelled following his conviction on 10 counts, including bribery, conspiracy to defraud the United States, corruption, obstruction of justice, tax evasion, and racketeering. Both chambers have less severe measures with which to discipline members. The Senate, with a simple majority vote, may censure members to express disapproval of their conduct.

  • 2020 Election Recap
    2020 Election Recap Below NACCHO summarizes election results and changes expected for 2021. Democrats will continue to lead the House of Representatives…but with a smaller majority. This means that many of the key committees for public health will continue to be chaired by the same members, with notable exceptions of the Appropriations Committee, where Chair Nita Lowey (D-NY) did not run for reelection; the Agriculture Committee, which has some jurisdiction around food safety and nutrition, whose Chair, Colin Peterson (D-MN) lost, as well as the Ranking Member for the Energy and Commerce Committee, Rep. Greg Walden, (R-OR) who did not run for reelection. After the 117th Congress convenes in January, internal leadership elections will determine who heads these and other committees. The following new Representatives and Senators are confirmed as of January 7. House of Representatives Note: All House of Representative seats were up for re-election. We list only those where a new member will be coming to Congress below. AL-1: Republican Jerry Carl beat Democrat James Averhart (open seat) Carl has served a member of the Mobile County Commission since 2012.

Of the three branches of government, the legislative branch is intended to be the most representative of the people. However, it consistently faces the lowest approval ratings among the American public. Although the public largely disapproves of Congress as a legislative body, most Americans support their own representative.1 This phenomenon is reflected in high reelection rates for congressional incumbents.
