July 27, 2021 The Honorable Joseph R. Biden Jr. President of the United States 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, D.C. 20500 The Honorable Charles Schumer The Honorable Mitch McConnell Majority Leader Minority Leader U.S. Senate United States Senate S-221, U.S. Capitol Room S-230, The Capitol Washington, D.C. 20510 Washington, DC 20510 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives H-232, U.S. Capitol H-204, U.S. Capitol Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear President Biden, Majority Leader Schumer, Speaker Pelosi, Senate Minority Leader McConnell, and House Minority Leader McCarthy: As negotiations on the Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework and the reconciliation package continue, we are writing to make clear how important it is that any final bill addresses two of the most significant challenges facing our nation today: climate change and racial equity. The transportation sector is the largest generator of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States; and a lack of safe, accessible, and affordable transportation has cut many Black and brown neighborhoods off from economic opportunity. To meet the moment, we need bold federal action, such as provided for in the INVEST Act, to modernize our transportation policy. Key to this is ensuring public transportation is incorporated and properly funded in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework and the reconciliation package. In this context, 20 percent of guaranteed funding and contract authority from the Highway Trust Fund for transit is simply insufficient. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework and reconciliation package must include a baseline threshold for transit funding that provides a pathway for parity with the level of funding for roads and bridges.

1 Through the Nuclear Door Do We Let High-Level Radiation Burden Our
Through the Nuclear Door This photo by Unknown Author Do we let High-Level Radiation burden our Homes, Families and Empty our Pockets? Answers about HOLTEC’S license to build “Consolidated Interim Storage” (CIS) Site in New Mexico 1. What is “CIS”? “CIS” stands for “Consolidated Interim Storage”. The proposed HOLTEC site is marketed as “temporary” storage for high- level nuclear fuel rods” from nuclear reactors. But there is no permanent disposal site, so “temporary” could be permanent. 2. What are high-level nuclear fuel rods? Nuclear fuel rods are inserted into the reactor and create heat from the uranium, plutonium, and elements inside to produce electricity. In the process they become more highly radioactive and very hot. 3. What happens when a nuclear reactor is “decommissioned” (shut down)? The nuclear reactor’s “contents” are poisoned with radiation and need removal from contact with all organic and inorganic matter including water and soil. The concrete from buildings, motors, wiring, soil from around and below the reactor (low-level waste), and fuel rods (high-level waste) need to be isolated. The reactor and its contents are re-located to isolated licensed storage sites. High-level waste can be millions of times more radioactive than low-level waste. 1 4.Why is radiation removed from contact with organic life? Radiation is like invisible darts that enter organic material. Cells are damaged, causing cancers, birth defects and deaths. 5.What is the life of the contents of the high-level nuclear fuel rods? The materials in the fuel rods are unsafe for contact with organic life, soil or water for 100,000 to 1 million years.

August 10, 2021 the Honorable Nancy Pelosi the Honorable Steny
August 10, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Steny Hoyer Speaker Majority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader Hoyer, As we advance legislation to rebuild and renew America’s infrastructure, we encourage you to continue your commitment to combating the climate crisis by including critical clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives in the upcoming infrastructure package. These incentives will play a critical role in America’s economic recovery, alleviate some of the pollution impacts that have been borne by disadvantaged communities, and help the country build back better and cleaner. The clean energy sector was projected to add 175,000 jobs in 2020 but the COVID-19 pandemic upended the industry and roughly 300,000 clean energy workers were still out of work in the beginning of 2021.1 Clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives are an important part of bringing these workers back. It is critical that these policies support strong labor standards and domestic manufacturing. The importance of clean energy tax policy is made even more apparent and urgent with record- high temperatures in the Pacific Northwest, unprecedented drought across the West, and the impacts of tropical storms felt up and down the East Coast. We ask that the infrastructure package prioritize inclusion of a stable, predictable, and long-term tax platform that: Provides long-term extensions and expansions to the Production Tax Credit and Investment Tax Credit to meet President Biden’s goal of a carbon pollution-free power sector by 2035; Extends and modernizes tax incentives for commercial and residential energy efficiency improvements and residential electrification; Extends and modifies incentives for clean transportation options and alternative fuel infrastructure; and Supports domestic clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation manufacturing.

Congress of the United States Washington, DC 20515
Congress of the United States Washington, DC 20515 June 14, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi Speaker of the House H-232, The Capitol Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Madam Speaker: We write today to urge you to fully reopen the House of Representatives. The positive impact of increasing vaccination rates and decreasing cases of COVID-19 are clear to see. Businesses are open, sporting venues and cultural institutions have welcomed back fans and visitors, and restrictions have been lifted. On June 11, Washington D.C. fully reopened and lifted the restrictions put in place to stop the spread of COVID-19. Unfortunately, the United States Capitol and the People’s House have failed to do the same. The Capitol remains closed to the American people and the House continues to maintain policies that run contrary to science of COVID-19. It is time for you to reopen the House and get back to serving the American people. Weekly case numbers in the United States have reached their lowest point since March of 2020 at the very start of the pandemic, and every day hundreds of thousands of Americans are being vaccinated. This also holds true for the Washington D.C. metropolitan area and the Capitol Hill community specifically. Over the last two weeks cases are down 36% in Washington D.C. and over 40% in both Virginia and Maryland. On Capitol Hill, no congressional staffer is known to have tested positive in weeks and no Member of Congress is known to have tested positive in months. This can no doubt be attributed to the institution’s steady access to vaccinations.

21.05.17 Taiwan-ICAO Letter 0.Pdf
which is an ongoing concern, and we must not allow these issues to continue in airspace diplomacy. Taiwan is home to the eleventh busiest airport in the world, and the country’s absence in this organization ignores the public health and safety issues of global air travel. It is critical that we continue to publicly work with Taiwan and our other allies across the globe in combatting CCP influence in the region and international community, as well as continuing to build our diplomatic and defensive relationships. We are ready to work with your departments to see Taiwan included in the ICAO and the WHO, as well as to build on previous work to ease restrictions that allow us to increase our diplomatic missions to Taiwan. Lastly, we encourage you to continue to work to implement the Taiwan Relations Act and similar legislation related to Taiwan. These steps will reinforce the strength of the U.S.-Taiwan relationship and promote further cooperation between Taiwan and our other allies in the region. We stand ready to work with you on this effort and look forward to protecting the autonomy of a free, democratic Taiwan.

Letter to Speaker Pelosi and Minority Leader Mccarthy About Housing
July 20, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Speaker of the House House Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives H-232 U.S. Capitol H-204 U.S. Capitol Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Minority Leader McCarthy: We write to highlight the urgent need for substantial affordable housing infrastructure investments as part of the broader effort to repair and modernize our nation’s critical infrastructure systems. Without proportional affordable housing investments, there is no path for an equitable recovery and long term financial stability for low and middle income American families. If we fail to act now, our nation’s economic growth will continue to be held back by the over 7 million unit deficit in affordable homes. Our current low affordable housing inventory is a significant driver of higher housing costs, which in turn strains limited federal rental assistance programs. Despite the clear and urgent need, only one in four households who qualify for housing assistance receives it due to decades of chronic underfunding by Congress. Millions of eligible households are currently stuck on waiting lists – often for several years – hoping for help to come sooner. The long wait for help sets families further back year after year. Eight million of the lowest- income renters pay at least half of their income on rent, leaving them without the resources they need to put food on the table, purchase needed medications, or make ends meet. Coronavirus and the compounding effects of explosive wildfires and extreme weather events have made the need for affordable housing more clear than ever in both rural and urban communities.

Welcome to the Halloween Edition of the AMA's Very Influential Physician (VIP) Insider
Welcome to the Halloween edition of the AMA's Very Influential Physician (VIP) Insider. Read on for details about these topics: • Senate introduces bipartisan legislation to make telehealth services permanent – take action! • House members urge action to avert potential E/M cuts • Hotline’s final 2020 House power rankings • AMPAC Campaign School is going virtual Senate introduces bipartisan legislation to telehealth services permanent – take action! As we notified you last month, Congress still remains deadlocked on additional COVID-19 relief legislation our country’s health care system continues to struggle under the massive strain the pandemic continues to exert on it. During this time telehealth services have emerged as a critical tool to provide care to patients while supporting physical distancing efforts and reducing the spread of COVID-19 and other infectious diseases by avoiding unnecessary outpatient visits. Earlier this year, Congress acted to temporarily expand access to Medicare covered telehealth services to all Medicare beneficiaries by authorizing HHS to waive outdated statutory restrictions on where telehealth services may be provided. Before this action, Medicare was only allowed to pay for telehealth services provided to Medicare beneficiaries in rural areas at an originating site health care facility. Unless Congress acts before the end of the COVID Public Health Emergency, millions of Medicare beneficiaries outside of rural areas will lose access to Medicare telehealth benefits, and rural Medicare beneficiaries will once again be required to drive to a health care facility to receive them. Recently, bipartisan legislation was introduced in the Senate to make the expanded access to telehealth services permanent.

November 29, 2020 the Honorable Joseph R. Biden, Jr. President-Elect
November 29, 2020 The Honorable Joseph R. Biden, Jr. President-Elect of the United States Biden-Harris Transition Washington, DC 20500 Dear President-Elect Biden: As members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, we wish to commend you on your efforts to ensure that your Cabinet reflects the diversity of our nation. Your recent nomination of Alejandro Mayorkas, the first Latino and first immigrant to be nominated for the position of Secretary of Homeland Security, reflects your commitment to these efforts. This is a good start in ensuring that Latinos, the largest minority group in the United States, are more fairly represented in our nation’s government. According to the Pew Research Center, Latinos constitute 18 percent of the U.S. population and the diversity of the Latino population in itself is incredibly varied, with Mexican-Americans making up 62.3 percent of the total Latino population. As you continue to finalize your nominees, we write to restate our strong support for the first Democratic Hispanic woman elected state governor in U.S. history, Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham, as Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. For more than 30 years, Governor Lujan Grisham has worked tirelessly to improve health care access and quality for New Mexicans and all Americans. The governor’s extensive record in public service and public health is a national model for leadership. Early in her career, Governor Lujan Grisham served as the New Mexico Secretary of Health and helped to expand school- based health centers and oversaw an increase in childhood vaccination rates. As a member of Congress, she spearheaded policy development to improve the health and livelihoods of American families, with a particular focus on health equity.

Coalition Letter to Congress Re: COVID Impact On
Tuesday, February 16, 2021 United States Senate and House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20510 TO THE MEMBERS OF THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS: Businesses, small to large, across the nation have exponentially suffered as the result of COVID, and have been forced to cut jobs and even close their doors permanently. One of the looming costs is the significant impact on the unemployment insurance fund. To prevent further loss, we respectfully ask Congress to consider the following: Transfer of funds to state UI trust funds equal to the amount of benefits paid due to COVID. Delay the application of the FUTA offset credit reduction for a year. Reduce or waive interest fees. Grant loan extension etc. to the 18 states and the U.S. Virgin Islands that have not only exhausted their state unemployment (UI) fund reserves in the wake of the pandemic, but have borrowed over $48 billion dollars (as of January 25, 2021) from the Federal-State Unemployment Compensation "UC" Program to continue providing jobless benefits. Unlike federal UI benefits, state UI benefits remain financed by state payroll taxes and are expected to rise sharply in the coming years. This will increase taxes on a per-employee basis, which will disincentive hiring employees and slow business recovery. In their weakened state, many more businesses will shut their doors for good under these tax increases. It is the belief of this coalition that it is neither right nor fair to hold employers solely responsible for replenishing state reserves and paying down federal loans. Our state unemployment systems were originally designed to be 100% funded by employers to provide jobless benefits as a result of business decisions.
