Dauster* The right of United States Senators to debate without limit—and thus to filibuster—has characterized much of the Senate’s history. The Reid Pre- cedent, Majority Leader Harry Reid’s November 21, 2013, change to a sim- ple majority to confirm nominations—sometimes called the “nuclear option”—dramatically altered that right. This article considers the Senate’s right to debate, Senators’ increasing abuse of the filibuster, how Senator Reid executed his change, and possible expansions of the Reid Precedent.

Vernon, M.D. I wish to speak with you about the department 's re= arks on current licensing of the uranium mill tailings at Durango, Colorado. Dr. Vernon states in a December 29, 1978 letter to me that, ". .the current license for storage of the tailings at the site in Durango remains in ef fect. Requirements for main- " taining the current stabilization of the tailings, property access and annual reporting also re=ain in effect." My question to you is, why does Ranchers need a license just to leave the tailings where they are? Are you telling us that the tailings piles are inherently dangerous? In light of CDH's action of denying Ranchers' application to move the tailings, we feel the reference to licensing and stabilization is unnecessary and that any such efforts on our part would not be justified. We would appreciate an early response from your agency as to the rationale for any current licensing, stabilization, etc.

  • May 8, 2019 Dear Senator/Representative
    May 8, 2019 Dear Senator/Representative, Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s recent report concluded that, “The Russian government interfered in the 2016 presidential election in a sweeping and systematic fashion.” That is unacceptable, and it must be addressed immediately so that it never happens again. We, the undersigned, as members of Issue One’s ReFormers Caucus — a coalition of former members of Congress, governors, and Cabinet officials representing all fifty states and both political parties — are writing to urge you to hold hearings on and pass the bipartisan Honest Ads Act as a first step toward strengthening our election security ​ ​ ​ and ensuring that interference is much less likely in the future. In addition, Congress should consider legislation — some of which has already been introduced — that addresses other areas of concern raised by the Mueller Report, specifically dark money, foreign expenditures, and the definition of campaign coordination. Our commitment to defending the national security of the United States crosses partisan and ideological divides. Many of us served in a branch of the armed forces, oversaw national security while serving in Congress, or directed an agency charged with preventing domestic and foreign attacks against the United States. Over the last two years, the Intelligence Community and the House and Senate Intelligence Committees have agreed that foreign actors interfered in the 2016 U.S. elections — and that hostile enemies and opponents of democracy around the world will likely try again. These bad actors will continue to infect some of the largest internet platforms in order to divide and weaken the country. As former elected officials, we believe now is the time for lawmakers on both sides of the aisle to address the growing cybersecurity challenges presented by Russia, China, Iran, and non-state actors.
