  • February 26, 2020 Chairman David Skaggs Co-Chairwoman Allison
    February 26, 2020 Chairman David Skaggs Co-Chairwoman Allison Hayward Office of Congressional Ethics 425 3rd Street, SW Suite 1110 Washington, DC 20024 Dear Chairman Skaggs and Co-Chairwoman Hayward: We write to request that the Office of Congressional Ethics (“OCE”) investigate whether Representative Devin Nunes is receiving free legal services in violation of the Rules of the House of Representatives (“House rules”). Specifically, Representative Nunes retained an attorney who represents him in several defamation lawsuits in various courts where he seeks a total of nearly $1 billion in damages. House rules prohibit a Member from receiving free legal services, unless the Member establishes a Legal Expense Fund (“LEF”). According to the House Legislative Resource Center, Representative Nunes has not filed any of the required reports to establish an LEF. The relevant facts detailed below establish that the OCE Board should authorize an investigation of Representative Nunes. Representative Nunes’s overt involvement with the highly-publicized lawsuits threatens to establish a precedent that the Legal Expense Fund (“LEF”) regulations no longer apply to Members. Although Representative Nunes is entitled to legal representation and he may pursue any legal action to protect and defend his interests, he must comply with House rules. An OCE investigation will preserve Representative Nunes’s legal right to counsel while upholding well-established House rules and precedent. House Rules Prohibit Members from Receiving Discounted or Free Legal Services A Member of the House of Representatives “may not knowingly accept a gift” with limited exceptions.1 A “gift” is defined to include “a gratuity, favor, discount, entertainment, hospitality, loan, forbearance, or other item having monetary value.

  • 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.

  • PO Box 5978 Beverly Hills, CA 90209 (424) 254-9598
    PO Box 5978 Beverly Hills, CA 90209 (424) 254-9598 www.californiatargetbook.com February 6h, 2018 Between 2012 and 2016, a total of 66 Democratic candidates ran for the 14 out of 53 California House seats held by Republican incumbents, raising $17.3 million for their campaigns along the way. This year alone, 69 Democrats have filed with the FEC and are currently running for those same seats. Before the first ballot has even been printed, those candidates have collected $22.8 million, raising more in a single year than all the Democratic candidates running in those districts raised in the previous six years combined. Are we witnessing the beginning of a wave, or of a speculative bubble? Here’s part two of the rundown on the state of play in the 14 California Republican‐held Congressional seats. In CA21 (R‐Valadao), which has historically been a recruiting nightmare for Democrats, 2016 candidate Emilio Huerta remains the only Democratic candidate in the race. The son of labor icon Dolores Huerta, whose endorsement is a much sought‐after commodity for Democratic candidates, he won the pre‐endorsement conference without any competition. After filing a statement of candidacy with the FEC in May, he raised $35,828 in the second quarter, with each successive quarter worse than the previous. He raised $95,193 over the course of the year, building up a $96,554 war chest that was less than a tenth of the incumbent’s. In his 2016 attempt, Huerta spent $655,395, was aided by over $1.7 million in outside spending from the Democratic House leadership PAC, and suffered a 13.48% defeat in a district where Democrats hold a 17‐point voter registration advantage over Republicans.

  • Tall Poppy Syndrome & Patriarchal Femininity
    Tall Poppy Syndrome & Patriarchal Femininity: An Auto-ethnographic Investigation into New Zealand’s Female-identifying Comedians BY KATIE HILL A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of a Master of Arts in Theatre Victoria University of Wellington 2021 - 2 - Abstract This practice-based and auto-ethnographic research project explores the correlation between Tall Poppy Syndrome (TPS) and patriarchal femininity in the performances of female-identifying stand-up comedians in New Zealand. I identify ways TPS, as a patriarchal ideology, has an impact on the subconscious/and or conscious choices of New Zealand’s self-deprecating female-identifying comedians in contemporary performance. I have chosen to analyse TPS through an intersectional feminist lens, focusing on ways the historical construction of patriarchal femininity directly relates to the cultural phenomenon of Tall Poppy Syndrome. I aim to connect this relationship to the ways New Zealand female-identifying comedians ‘perform’ autobiographical comedy, as part of expected social and cultural conventions. As I want to investigate the impact of TPS in an exclusively New Zealand context, my research isolates its case studies to comedians who make comedy primarily for a New Zealand audience, discussing international comedians as a point of comparison. - 3 - ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The completion of this thesis would not have been possible without the invaluable guidance and support of my peers, friends and family. To my supervisor, Dr. Nicola Hyland - your counsel on my academic, practical and wellbeing needs was immensely helpful. Many of my anxieties were eased by your kind and understanding approach to teaching.
