  • No Rhode Islander Can Resist a Cabinet: Raimondo Heads to DC, Leaving a Power Vacuum in Her Wake
    No Rhode Islander Can Resist a Cabinet: Raimondo heads to DC, leaving a power vacuum in her wake Governor Gina Raimondo is leaving the Ocean State for another job. News broke last week via a leak to The New York Times that President-elect Joe Biden was picking our two-term Rhode Island executive for commerce secretary. The decision comes after months, if not years, of rampant speculation. Raimondo, a rising Democrat within her own party, boasts moderate (read: conservative) credentials and is a stellar fundraiser for Democrats’ causes. Her appointment would be the first time in the state’s history that a sitting governor left office to accept a cabinet appointment. Raimondo, a former venture capitalist and Rhodes scholar whose educational pipeline goes from Lasalle Academy to Harvard to Yale to Oxford, was first elected state treasurer in 2010. Her pension reform policies remain controversial to this day, with critics rebuking the sharp rise in fees paid to hedge fund managers and her lowering of entitlements. She defeated Ocean State blueblood scion Clay Pell and former Providence mayor Angel Taverez in the 2014 Democratic primary. She went on to defeat Allan Fung in the general (doing so again in a rematch in 2018) to become the Ocean State’s 75th governor. As governor, Raimondo has boasted lowering the state’s employment rate (pre-COVID of course), pushing for more diversity in the state’s judiciary, reducing small business taxes and regulation, and moving the state toward clean energy. Her tenure has not been without controversy, however. The UHIP rollout disaster saw the state spend millions on a new computer system for government programs like childcare and food assistance only for the system to crash and create a backlog of 20,000 cases.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Denver Law Review by an authorized editor of Digital Commons @ DU. For more information, please contact [email protected],[email protected]. BRANDING IDENTITY KATE SABLOSKY ELENGOLDt ABSTRACT The Civil Rights Act of 1964 protects against discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin-the so-called "pro- tected classes." To make out a successful civil rights claim under the current legal structure, a plaintiff must first identify the protected class under which her claim arises (i.e., race or religion). She must then identify a subclass of that protected class (i.e., African American race or Christian religion) and assert that, due to her membership in or relation- ship to that subclass, she was treated differently in violation of the law. This Article explores the disconnect between self-identity and perceived identity in the context of assigning membership in protected classes and subclasses. Specifically, it analyzes the tension inherent in the protected class deemed "color." By tracing the relevant legislative history of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the jurisprudence that has developed in the wake of its passage, this Article provides critical historical context for how identity has been assigned in civil rights jurisprudence.

  • Ethnic and Racial Identity in Italian-American Postwar Political Experience, 1945-2008
    Saggi From William C. Celentano to Barack Obama: Ethnic and Racial Identity in Italian-American Postwar Political Experience, 1945-2008 Stefano Luconi Università degli Studi di Roma «Tor Vergata» According to conventional wisdom, political science has generally overlooked an in-depth examination of Italian-American voting behavior and politics (Martellone, 1991; Cappelli, 2008). This contention, however, hardly depicts the state of the art in the 1960s. After the number of Italian-Americans serv- ing in the U.S. House of Representatives and state legislatures in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island had roughly doubled during the previous decade, this ethnic minority seemed a ris- ing political group and consequently captured scholarly attention (Lubell, 1965, pp. 76-77). In particular, in the 1960s academicians drew upon the electoral history and events involving the Little Italy in the city of New Haven, Con- necticut, as a microcosm for case studies to analyze ethnic politics. Specifically, at the beginning of that decade, in a path-breaking research on the mechanics of municipal politics, Who Governs?, Robert A. Dahl (1961) used the example of Italian-American William C. Celentano’s 1945 rise to the mayoralty in New Haven in order to elaborate an influential three-stage theory for the political assimilation of immigrant groups in the United States. The local Republican organization slated Celentano, an undertaker by pro- fession, to lure his fellow ethnics into breaking away from the Irish-dominated Democratic Party. Defeated in 1939 and bypassed in the choice of candidates for the duration of World War II because his Italian descent made him a liability while his ancestral country was fighting against the United States, Celentano received again the Republican nomination in 1945 and, this time, managed to © Centro Altreitalie, Globus et Locus 7 Altreitalie gennaio-dicembre 2009 win election to City Hall.
