IAPAC focuses exclusively on domestic policy issues such as civil rights and immigration, and it encourages Americans of Iranian descent to actively participate in civic affairs. Mission • To support and promote the election of candidates for federal, state and local office, regardless of party affiliation, who are attuned to the domestic needs and issues of the Iranian American community • To support and promote Iranian American participation in civic affairs Issue Advocacy Civil Liberties: Balancing Civil Liberties and National Security in the Post-9/11 Era. Protecting our security and ensuring that the government does not infringe upon basic constitutional rights have long been important issues for civil libertarians and certain ethnic communities. IAPAC believes that our government must take the appropriate measures to protect our nation from further atrocities, but that it can do so without eliminating basic constitutional rights. Immigration: Immigration reform that is driven by proper national security concerns and remedies based on a fair and accurate appraisal of deficiencies in the immigration process, and not simply on national origin.

Capitol Insurrection at Center of Conservative Movement
Capitol Insurrection At Center Of Conservative Movement: At Least 43 Governors, Senators And Members Of Congress Have Ties To Groups That Planned January 6th Rally And Riots. SUMMARY: On January 6, 2021, a rally in support of overturning the results of the 2020 presidential election “turned deadly” when thousands of people stormed the U.S. Capitol at Donald Trump’s urging. Even Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, who rarely broke with Trump, has explicitly said, “the mob was fed lies. They were provoked by the President and other powerful people.” These “other powerful people” include a vast array of conservative officials and Trump allies who perpetuated false claims of fraud in the 2020 election after enjoying critical support from the groups that fueled the Capitol riot. In fact, at least 43 current Governors or elected federal office holders have direct ties to the groups that helped plan the January 6th rally, along with at least 15 members of Donald Trump’s former administration. The links that these Trump-allied officials have to these groups are: Turning Point Action, an arm of right-wing Turning Point USA, claimed to send “80+ buses full of patriots” to the rally that led to the Capitol riot, claiming the event would be one of the most “consequential” in U.S. history. • The group spent over $1.5 million supporting Trump and his Georgia senate allies who claimed the election was fraudulent and supported efforts to overturn it. • The organization hosted Trump at an event where he claimed Democrats were trying to “rig the election,” which he said would be “the most corrupt election in the history of our country.” • At a Turning Point USA event, Rep.

The Southeast Arizona Land Exchange and Conservation Act of 2013
The Southeast Arizona Land Exchange and Conservation Act of 2013 .H.R.687 – Introduced by Reps. Paul Gosar, Ann Kirkpatrick, Matt Salmon, David Schweikert, and Trent Franks .S.339 – Introduced by Senators John McCain and Jeff Flake Why do we need the Southeast Arizona Land Exchange and Conservation Act of 2013? • Creates thousands of high paying jobs. • Reduces U.S. dependence on foreign sources of energy and minerals. • Preserves Apache Leap. • Protects endangered species habitat, sensitive ecosystems, recreational sites, and historic landmarks in rural Arizona. • Generates billions of dollars of revenue for federal, state, and local governments. Overview of the Legislation • H.R.687 authorizes, directs, facilitates, and expedites the exchange of land between Resolution Copper, the U.S. Forest Service, and the Bureau of Land Management. – Legislation is required because the exchange involves three parties. • The exchange will bring into federal stewardship 5,344 acres of high-priority conservation lands in exchange for 2,422acres of national forest system land containing one of the largest undeveloped copper resources in the world. • H.R.687 and S.339 are nearly identical to the bill Rep. Gosar introduced and navigated to passage last Congress - the first time the exchange passed either body of Congress in its history. Resolution Copper will acquire the 2,422 acre “Oak Flat” parcel • This land is checker- boarded within Resolution Copper's lands. • Resolution Copper already has unpatented mining claims that cover about 75% of the parcel. • This conveyance is an important step to the development of the largest producing mine in North America. Economic Highlights • Over 3,000 construction jobs over a six to ten year period.

Potential Committee Vacancies in the 117Th Congress Last Updated November 25, 2020
Potential Committee Vacancies in the 117th Congress Last updated November 25, 2020 Congressional committees are a critical part of the legislative process. Committees serve as gatekeepers for legislation, considering and amending bills before they reach the floor. Hearings and investigations shape policy debates and provide critical oversight. At the beginning of each Congress, Members receive their committee assignments. Members pursue membership on committees that align with their interests and priorities, and their assignments are determined by the Democratic Caucus and the Republican Conference - with heavy influence from party leadership and steering committees.1 When determining committee assignments, the parties weigh member preferences along with seniority, regional balance, and balance among ideological and identity caucuses.2 Committee vacancies present opportunities for returning members to gain spots on new committees and for incoming freshmen to get their initial assignments. Vacancies for committee chairs and ranking members can have major policy implications because those leaders shape committees’ priorities. Committee vacancies may occur due to a preexisting vacancy or because a previous member retired, ran for another office, or lost reelection. On the Democratic side, Members can receive waivers that allow them to serve on additional committees beyond the caps in Democratic Caucus rules.3 While returning members usually have the option to remain on their previous committees (except for committees with term limits4), a returning Democratic committee member using a waiver is not guaranteed the option to keep the committee slot. The Democratic Caucus uses waivers to distribute remaining committee slots after all members, including incoming freshmen, have hit their caps. The actual number of vacancies going into the 117th Congress depends on the final partisan composition of the House, which is reflected in the committee ratios negotiated by Democratic and Republican leaders.

April 26, 2021 the Honorable Rosa Delauro Chairwoman U.S. House
April 26, 2021 The Honorable Rosa DeLauro The Honorable Tom Cole Chairwoman Ranking Member U.S. House Subcommittee on Labor, Health U.S. House Appropriations Subcommittee and Human Services, Education and Related on Labor, Health and Human Services, Agencies Education and Related Agencies 2358-B Rayburn House Office Building 1016 Longworth House Office Building Washington, DC Washington, DC 20515 Chairwoman DeLauro and Ranking Member Cole, As you develop the Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations bill, we are writing to respectfully request that you provide robust funding for the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG). Recognizing the need to direct taxpayer resources to programs that can demonstrate a return on federal investments, quality child care - which has a strong evidence base - plays a crucial role in supporting children's healthy development, learning, and school readiness, while also enabling parents to work, train, or pursue an education. In this way, CCDBG not only improves future opportunities for children, but also invests in parents by supporting their ability to work and be successful. Prior to the coronavirus pandemic, families at every income level struggled to find and afford high-quality care, and less than twenty percent of eligible children received support through the CCDBG subsidy program. These challenges have only been exacerbated over the last year, and now, more than ever, access to affordable high-quality child care remains a barrier for many parents who wish to enter and remain in the workforce. Given the importance of this program to working families across the country and the fundamental role of child care in our economic recovery, there is a critical need for robust CCDBG funding.
