CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE August 7, 2020
MCALVEY MERCHANT & ASSOCIATES CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE August 7, 2020 CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE WEEK OF AUGUST 3, 2020 Integrity, Individual Attention. Precision Strategy. Proven Results RECORD-SETTING PRIMARY ELECTIONS A record number of voters participated in Michigan’s primary election on Aug. 4, with more than 2.5 million people casting a vote either in person or by absentee ballot. One of the most followed races in the primary was the 13th Congressional District rematch between U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Detroit) and Detroit City Council President Brenda Jones. Jones represented the district for a few weeks in 2018, following the resignation of Rep. John Conyers (D-Detroit) in December 2017. After his resignation, there were two elections for the seat with Jones winning the special election to complete Conyers unexpired term, and Tlaib winning the regular race for the Congressional seat. This year, Tlaib and Jones were the only primary candidates. On Tuesday, Tlaib won the strongly Democratic district with nearly twice as many votes as Jones, potentially guaranteeing her a second term. In the 3rd Congressional District in West Michigan, Republican Peter Meijer, a U.S. Army veteran whose family founded the well-known Meijer retail chain, won a five-way contest with more than 50 percent of the vote, including holding a strong lead over his main opponent Rep. Lynn Afendoulis. Meijer will face Democratic attorney Hillary Scholten. The winner of that race will succeed U.S. Rep. Justin Amash, a former Republican turned Libertarian who is not seeking reelection. In the 10th Congressional District, a Republican stronghold in the Thumb region, Republican businesswoman Lisa McClain of Bruce Township, a pro-Trump Republican who outspent her opponents, beat state Rep. -
The Federal Advisor a Policy and Political Update from Washington, D.C
The Federal Advisor A policy and political update from Washington, D.C. January 2021 Dear Friends, On Wednesday, January 13th, the House voted to impeach President Trump for the second time, charging him with “incitement of insurrection” after the violence and rioting last week at the Capitol, where five people tragically died. With that vote, he is the only President in history to be impeached twice. The final vote tally was 232 to 197, with 10 Republicans in support. The timing and next steps of a possible Senate trial are unclear, though Leader McConnell indicated that there will be no trial before Mr. Biden is inaugurated next week. See below for more on Derek N. Harley Senior Vice President of Federal Affairs the impeachment vote and what’s next. Shumaker Advisors, LLC 419.321.1256 [email protected] With the Democratic challengers prevailing in both Georgia runoff races on January 5th, the Democrats will have de facto control of the U.S. Senate with Vice President-elect Kamala Harris casting a tie-breaking vote.

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. -

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.

June 30, 2021 Chairman Gregory Meeks Ranking Member Michael McCaul House Foreign Affairs Committee House Foreign Affairs Committee 2170 Rayburn House Office Building 2170 Rayburn House Office Building Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Chairman Meeks and Ranking Member McCaul: We write to you concerning H.R. 3524 – Ensuring American Global Leadership and Engagement Act – legislation that will be marked-up in HFAC on Wednesday, June 30. On behalf of the 10,000 members of the American Nuclear Society (ANS), we request that you oppose any amendments to H.R. 3524 that would cut off U.S.–China nuclear energy cooperation. China is projected to have the largest nuclear fleet in the world within a decade, and it’s positioning itself to aggressively market its growing technology portfolio for export, including to newcomer nations around the globe. Of course, there is also ample evidence that, along the way, Chinese nuclear companies have engaged in illegal efforts to collect sensitive US nuclear intellectual property, seen most famously in the case of Allen Ho, who pleaded guilty in 2017 to “conspiracy to unlawfully engage or participate in the production or development of special nuclear material outside the U.S., without the required authorization from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), in violation of the Atomic Energy Act.” Perhaps because of this, some in Congress have called for a total cessation of bilateral nuclear cooperation between China and the U.S. Recent legislation passed by the Senate, S.1260 – Endless Frontiers Act contains a provision (Section 2515) that restricts the U.S. -

MICHIGAN REPORT an Analysis of the Jewish Electorate for the Jewish Electorate Institute by the American Jewish Population Project
A Report by the AmericanAmerican Jewish Jewish Population Population Project Project MICHIGAN REPORT An Analysis of the Jewish Electorate for the Jewish Electorate Institute by the American Jewish Population Project At the request of the non-partisan Jewish Electorate Institute, researchers at the American Jewish Population Project at Brandeis University’s Steinhardt Social Research Institute conducted an analysis of hundreds of national surveys of US adults to describe the Jewish electorate in each of the 435 districts of the 116th US Congress and the District of Columbia. Surveys include the American National Election Studies, the General Social Survey, Pew Political and social surveys, the Gallup Daily Tracking poll, and the Gallup Poll Social Series. Data from over 1.4 million US adults were statistically combined to provide, for each district, estimates of the number of adults who self-identify as Jewish and a breakdown of those individuals by age, education, race and ethnicity, political party, and political ideology. The percentages of political identity are not sensitive to quick changes in attitudes that can result from current events and they are not necessarily indicative of voting behaviors.
