    COMPLAINT BEFORE THE FEDERAL ELECTION CBHMISSIOAl INTRODUCTXON - 1 The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee ("DSCC") 7-_. J _j. c files this complaint seeking an immediate investigation by the 7 c; a > Federal Election Commission into the illegal spending A* practices of the National Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee (WRSCIt). As the public record shows, and an investigation will confirm, the NRSC and a series of ostensibly nonprofit, nonpartisan groups have undertaken a significant and sustained effort to funnel "soft money101 into federal elections in violation of the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971, as amended or "the Act"), 2 U.S.C. 5s 431 et seq., and the Federal Election Commission (peFECt)Regulations, 11 C.F.R. 85 100.1 & sea. 'The term "aoft money" as ueed in this Complaint means funds,that would not be lawful for use in connection with any federal election (e.g., corporate or labor organization treasury funds, contributions in excess of the relevant contribution limit for federal elections). THE FACTS IN TBIS CABE On November 24, 1992, the state of Georgia held a unique runoff election for the office of United States Senator. Georgia law provided for a runoff if no candidate in the regularly scheduled November 3 general election received in excess of 50 percent of the vote. The 1992 runoff in Georg a was a hotly contested race between the Democratic incumbent Wyche Fowler, and his Republican opponent, Paul Coverdell. The Republicans presented this election as a %ust-win81 election. Exhibit 1. The Republicans were so intent on victory that Senator Dole announced he was willing to give up his seat on the Senate Agriculture Committee for Coverdell, if necessary.

  • Historical Musings: the Contours of South Dakota Political Culture
    Copyright © 2004 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. Historical Musings The Contours of South Dakota Political Culture JON LAUCK, JOHN E. MILLER, AND EDWARD HOGAN like other states of the Midwest and Great Plains, South Dakota en- joys a moderate republican political culture, rooted in a belief in the equality of individuals and their ability to work together for the greater good. While similarities among these states abound, differences also persist. The political culture of South Dakota is distinct from that of Minnesota, known historically for its liberal leanings, and that of Wy- oming, known for its conservatism. The political culture of South Da- kota, where Populism originated, is even quite distinct from that of North Dakota, where radical pohtical reforms did not take hold until later. As the editor of the Watertown Public Opinion noted in 1890, the "politics of North Dakota is a product of an entirely different breed of cats."' We aim to sketch some of the influences that shape the broad contours of South Dakota's political culture and, therefore, the prac- tice of politics in the state. These contours, like those of a winding streambed, can change in response to events and trends from without but frequently return to form, or what anthropologist Adam Kuper calls "the authentic, local way of being different."^ The authors wish to thank Dwight Adams, Robert Burns, Loren Carlson, Herb Cheever, Alan Clem, Marshall Damgaard, Dave Danbom.

    THE S.O.H.O. NEWSLETTER REFLECTIONS MAY 1980 P .O. BOX 3571 SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA 92103 (714)222-3148 National Preservation Week May I I._17 It's National Preservation Week again an annual time set aside to recognize outstanding preservation efforts, and to make more Americans and San Diegans! aware of the preservation movement and its contributions to the quality of life in every community. The theme of National Preservation Week, 1980 is "Preservation: Reusing America's Energy': and this year is co-sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy. The message is three-fold: 1) old buildings are a past investment of energy; 2) old buildings can be renovated for greater energy efficiency in their operation, and 3) new technology like solar power, for example, can be used in manv old buildings without destroying their historical and architectural cl--~racteristics. Look downtown this week at the Knights of Pythias Building at 3rd and E, which has housed the Community Arts complex, as a good example of adaptive reuse. Look at the Lyceum and Hor­ ton Hotels -- all freshly painted, and beautifully too. Gaslarnp is blooming, albeit too slowly for some, into a showy flower. All around us we see examples of positive preservation-- both public and private. Paul Thoryk's Soledad Franco Restaurant in the newly renovated Columbia Square is a showplace. Ted Krauss' offices at Front and Fir, an early-on example of preservation in action. Parker Industry's on-going rehabilitation in the spectacular Long­ Waterman House at First & Kalmia, and of course, the lovely new bed and breakfast remodel ­ ling of the Britt House at Fourth & Maple.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.
