    April 29, 2020 The Honorable Greg Abbott Governor of Texas P.O. Box 12428 Austin, TX 78711 Delivered via Email Dear Governor Abbott: Long-term care facilities like nursing homes, state supported living centers, and group homes are now the epicenters of the COVID-19 pandemic. While media outlets have rightly focused on the deaths in nursing homes across the country, people with disabilities and older adults face increased risks in all institutional and congregate settings. Like nursing homes, there have been similar outbreaks and deaths in our state supported living centers, state hospitals, and group homes. Our state government can and must do more to protect our most vulnerable Texans. That is why we respectfully request the following critical measures to defend our elderly Texans, Texans with disabilities, and the Texans on the frontline serving these communities. • Immediate additional funding through an emergency Texas Medicaid rate increase for long-term and intermediate care facilities to help cover increased costs for direct-care staff wages and personal protective equipment (PPE); • Greater transparency in the reporting of COVID-19 deaths and cases in nursing home facilities, state supported living centers, state hospitals, and group homes; • Mandatory available COVID-19 testing for every employee and resident of a nursing home facility, state supported living centers, state hospitals, or group home in Texas. Thank you for your consideration of our request, and ensuring Texas protects our most vulnerable. Please do not hesitate

  • Legislative Update: New Texas Laws Affecting the Environment Or Environmental Regulation by Anthony Cavender, Amanda G
    Client Alert Environment, Land Use & Natural Resources Client Alert Environment, Land Use & Natural Resources June 12, 2013 Legislative Update: New Texas Laws Affecting the Environment or Environmental Regulation By Anthony Cavender, Amanda G. Halter and Nicholas M. Krohn This Texas legislative session brought several notable environment- and energy-related changes. The major standouts are culled and summarized in this Pillsbury Legislative Update. Txdot Authorized to Conduct NEPA Reviews of Transportation Projects The Transportation Code was amended to authorize the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) to assume the duties of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) with respect to Texas transportation projects under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA). TxDOT is also now authorized to enter into agreements with the USDOT to exclude certain highway projects from environmental assessment and impact statement requirements. TxDOT may adopt rules and standards for implementing these new authorities. Signed by Governor Perry and effective May 18, 2013. Bill: SB 466 Key legislators: Sen. Juan “Chuy” Hinojosa (D – Dist. 20), McAllen; Sen. Robert Nichols (R – Dist. 3), Jacksonville Audit Privilege Act Immunity Extended to New Property Owners The Texas Environmental, Health, and Safety Audit Privilege Act provides that certain documents and information may be privileged when they are collected as part of an environmental self-audit of facilities regulated by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). The Act also grants certain immunities from administrative and civil penalties for health and safety violations voluntarily disclosed and timely corrected. The Act currently provides these benefits only to facility owners and operators. This session’s amendment expands the reach to new owners who begin audits in connection with their pre- acquisition investigations.

The first section examines the location of the members of the Texas Senate and of the Texas House on the liberal-conservative dimension along which legislative politics takes place in Austin. In both chambers, every Republican is more conservative than every Democrat and every Democrat is more liberal than every Republican. There does, however, exist substantial ideological diversity within the respective Democratic and Republican delegations in each chamber. The second section explores the extent to which each senator and each representative was on the winning side of the non-lopsided final passage votes (FPVs) on which they voted.

    the sentinel TEXAS ETHICS & RELIGIOUS LIBERTY COMMITTEE Texas Legislative Update March 15–27, 2021 Texas Issues As of March 27th, there were 66 days left in the Texas Legislative session. The time to get bills out of House Committees, through the Calendars Committee and to the House floor for a vote is running short. After a House floor vote, the bills must go still through the Senate process. In order for House bills to be successful, they need to be voted out of their respective Committees ideally the first week of April. Senate bills also need to make their way out of committees to be voted on and sent over to the House. We need all hands on deck to let our voices be heard. Children & Gender – Bills to Support HB 68 by Rep. Steve TOTH –“The Innocence Protection Act,” has sat in the Texas House Public Health Committee for over a month. It would classify medical procedures to change a child’s sex, such as puberty blockers or genital surgeries, as child abuse. Read more here – thetexan.news HB1399 by Rep.

  • Verizon Political Contributions January – December 2012
    VERIZON POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS JANUARY – DECEMBER 2012 1 Verizon Political Contributions January – December 2012 A Message from Craig Silliman Verizon is affected by a wide variety of government policies ‐‐ from telecommunications regulation to taxation to health care and more ‐‐ that have an enormous impact on the business climate in which we operate. We owe it to our shareowners, employees and customers to advocate public policies that will enable us to compete fairly and freely in the marketplace. Political contributions are one way we support the democratic electoral process and participate in the policy dialogue. Our employees have established political action committees at the federal level and in 20 states. These political action committees (PACs) allow employees to pool their resources to support candidates for office who generally support the public policies our employees advocate. This report lists all PAC contributions, corporate political contributions, support for ballot initiatives and independent expenditures made by Verizon in 2012. The contribution process is overseen by the Corporate Governance and Policy Committee of our Board of Directors, which receives a comprehensive report and briefing on these activities at least annually. We intend to update this voluntary disclosure twice a year and publish it on our corporate website. We believe this transparency with respect to our political spending is in keeping with our commitment to good corporate governance and a further sign of our responsiveness to the interests of our shareowners. Craig L. Silliman Senior Vice President, Public Policy 2 Verizon Political Contributions January – December 2012 Political Contributions Policy: Our Voice in the Political Process What are the Verizon Good Government Clubs? and the government agencies administering the federal and individual state election laws.
