    Resolution Urging Governor Hochul and Commissioner Zucker to Modify the Proposed COVID-19 Mandate for all Healthcare Workers WHEREAS, Governor Hochul announced, in her first day in office, that she would be implementing a mandate that all healthcare workers in New York State be vaccinated against COVID-19 by September 27, 2021; and WHEREAS, many nursing homes and hospitals across the Finger Lakes region have indicated that significant numbers of their staff have threatened to resign effective September 26, 2021 rather than receive the COVID-19 vaccine; and WHEREAS, our nursing homes and hospitals are already experiencing staff shortages caused by complex and diverse factors; and WHEREAS, while well-intentioned, the vaccine mandate proposed by Governor Hochul and Commissioner Zucker runs the risk of effecting the mass resignation of unvaccinated healthcare workers throughout the state; and WHEREAS, both hospitals and nursing homes have indicated they would be forced to shutter beds and reduce capacity if the threatened resignations come to fruition; and WHEREAS, as the Delta variant of COVID-19 increases its spread through our communities and college and K through 12 schools resume classes, our community cannot risk losing critical healthcare workers and acute and long-term care capacity; and WHEREAS, allowing for a twice a week, or more frequent, testing alternative to the proposed vaccine mandate would protect patient safety, respect the personal rights of healthcare workers, and ensure that our medical system is as prepared as possible

  • 1 Redistricting and Congressional Control Following the 2012 Election
    Redistricting and Congressional Control Following the 2012 Election By Sundeep Iyer On Election Day, Republicans maintained control of the House of Representatives. While two Congressional races remain undecided as of November 20, it appears that Democrats may have picked up about eight seats during the 2012 election,1 falling well short of the 25 seats Democrats needed to take back control of the House. Before the election, the Brennan Center estimated that redistricting would allow Republicans to maintain long-term control of 11 more seats in the House than they would have under the previous district lines.2 Now that the election is complete, it is worth re-examining the influence of redistricting on the results of the 2012 election. This brief assesses how the new district lines affected the partisan balance of power in the House. The report is the prologue to more extensive analyses, which will examine other aspects of redistricting, including the fairness of the process and its effect on minority representation, among others. Based on our initial analysis of the 2012 election, several important trends emerge: • Redistricting may have changed which party won the election in at least 25 House districts. Because of redistricting, it is likely that the GOP won about six more seats overall in 2012 than they would have under the old district lines. • Where Republicans controlled redistricting, the GOP likely won 11 more seats than they would have under the old district lines, including five seats previously held by Democrats. Democrats also used redistricting to their advantage, but Republicans redrew the lines for four times as many districts as Democrats.
