  • A Historical Timeline 1970S and Before
    NJ Election Law Enforcement Commission- A Historical Timeline By Joseph Donohue, Deputy Director (Updated 10/2/17) 1970s and Before October 16, 1964- Governor Richard Hughes enacts New Jersey’s first lobbying law (Chapter 207). It requires any lobbyist who makes $500 or more in three months or spends that much to influence legislation to register with the Secretary of State. Trenton attorney John Heher, representing American Mutual Insurance Alliance of Chicago, becomes the state’s first registered lobbyist.1 New Jersey Education Association, historically one of the most powerful lobbyists in the capitol, registers for the first time on December 15, 1964.2 September 1, 1970- The interim report of the bipartisan New Jersey Election Law Revision Commission concludes “stringent disclosure requirements on every aspect of political financing must be imposed and enforce at every election level….If there were full public disclosure and publication of all campaign contributions and expenditures during a campaign, the voters themselves could better judge whether a candidate has spent too much.” It recommends creation of a 5-member Election Law Enforcement Commission and a tough enforcement strategy: “withhold the issuance of a certificate of election to a candidate who has not complied with the provisions of this act.”3 November 13, 1971- A new lobbying law (Chapter 183) takes effect, repealing the 1964 act and transferring all jurisdiction to the Attorney General. It requires lobbyists to wear badges in the Statehouse for the first time and file quarterly reports that list the bills they are supporting or opposing. April 7, 1972- Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 requires disclosure of campaign contributions and expenditures for federal candidates.4 June 17, 1972- Break-in occurs at the Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate office complex in Washington, DC.

He also said that the announcement marks the beginning of a new approach to conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, and that the United States will support a two-state solution if agreed to by both sides. But although he noted that recognition serves efforts to establish peace and stability in the Middle East, Trump failed to specify the area that Israel can control in Jerusalem, something which could, theoretically, represent a chance for making east Jerusalem a capital for a future independent Palestinian state.Trump made the decision despite opposition from the United States¶closest allies who warned against its consequences. Before the announcement was made, Jordan¶s King Abdullah II reportedly warned Trump ³personally´against the dangerous repercussions on the stability and security of the region. Saudi King Salman also warned against the decision. Additionally, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Qatar, Turkey as well as United States¶European allies, including France and Germany, immediately condemned Trump¶s decision. Because it runs against international consensus about Jerusalem and broke with a long-standing tradition held by former US Administrations, questions were raised about the motives of Trump¶s decision.

  • The Politics of Planning the World's Most Visible Urban Redevelopment Project
    The Politics of Planning the World's Most Visible Urban Redevelopment Project Lynne B. Sagalyn THREE YEARS after the terrorist attack of September 11,2001, plans for four key elements in rebuilding the World Trade Center (WC) site had been adopted: restoring the historic streetscape, creating a new public transportation gate- way, building an iconic skyscraper, and fashioning the 9/11 memorial. Despite this progress, however, what ultimately emerges from this heavily argued deci- sionmakmg process will depend on numerous design decisions, financial calls, and technical executions of conceptual plans-or indeed, the rebuilding plan may be redefined without regard to plans adopted through 2004. These imple- mentation decisions will determine whether new cultural attractions revitalize lower Manhattan and whether costly new transportation investments link it more directly with Long Island's commuters. These decisions will determine whether planned open spaces come about, and market forces will determine how many office towers rise on the site. In other words, a vision has been stated, but it will take at least a decade to weave its fabric. It has been a formidable challenge for a city known for its intense and frac- tious development politics to get this far. This chapter reviews the emotionally charged planning for the redevelopment of the WTC site between September 2001 and the end of 2004. Though we do not yet know how these plans will be reahzed, we can nonetheless examine how the initial plans emerged-or were extracted-from competing ambitions, contentious turf battles, intense architectural fights, and seemingly unresolvable design conflicts.

Contact: [email protected] Kushner Companies Questionable Business Practices are Another Dent for the Trump Administration By: Teddy Grant The 24-hour news cycle has been dominated by President Trump’s policy decisions, tweets and the investigation into his campaign ties with Russia, but businesses connected to the president and his family continue to raise concerns about the wall between the White House and the president’s private businesses. While investigators from special prosecutor Robert Mueller zero in on Jared Kushner's role in the alleged collusion between the Russian government and the Trump campaign, the real estate company of President Trump's son-in-law is mired in increasingly serious financial and legal problems which could upend the business. Examining Kushner is to look at his family’s real estate empire in New York, New Jersey and the surrounding areas. Kushner Companies, the real estate development firm, handles billions of dollars’ worth of residential and commercial properties throughout the northeast. The company founded by real estate developer Charles Kushner—Jared’s father—presided over some of the biggest deals in real estate.

  • Law and Order As the Foundational Paradox of the Trump Presidency
    Stanford Law Review Online Volume 73 June 2021 SYMPOSIUM ESSAY Law and Order as the Foundational Paradox of the Trump Presidency Trevor George Gardner* Abstract. This Essay scrutinizes the feuding between the Trump White House and various federal law enforcement agencies, concurrent with criminal lawbreaking in the Trump Administration, in an effort to extend scholarly understanding of the relationship between law-and-order politics and popular regard for rule-of-law principles. Sociolegal scholars have long argued that the politics advanced under the banner of “law and order” reduces the whole of the criminal–legal order to minority violent crime. In doing so, these politics stoke white racial anxieties regarding one or more racial minority groups. But under the Trump regime, law-and-order politics exhibited an additional benefit to its purveyors: obfuscation of the threat to the criminal– legal order posed by the very purveyors of these politics. This is to say that the criminal offending of the Trump campaign and Administration would likely have been more politically damaging to the Administration had much of the public not been fixated on Trump’s allegation of a rising tide of minority violent crime. Moreover, this same reductive logic has badly damaged the political standing of Black Lives Matter. It has often reduced the Black Lives Matter organization—effectively, a rule-of-law campaign targeting extra-legal police violence—to the limited instances of violent crime found at the margins of Black Lives Matter protest activity. * Professor of Law, Washington University in St. Louis School of Law. This Essay was written for the 2021 Policing, Race, and Power Symposium hosted by the Stanford Law Review and the Stanford Black Law Students Association, and for the cross-journal Reckoning and Reformation Symposium.
