  • Police Misconduct at Black Lives Matter Plaza
    July 2, 2020 Honorable Muriel Bowser John E. Wilson Building 1350 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20004 Re: Police Misconduct at Black Lives Matter Plaza Dear Mayor Bowser: With the utmost urgency, we call on you to require the Metropolitan Police Department to immediately cease all activity to remove protesters from Black Lives Matter Plaza and the adjacent sidewalks. We are alarmed by the daily excessive force and abusive conduct by MPD officers against people who have gathered at the Plaza to demand an end to the killing of people of color and to other police misconduct. The First Amendment’s protection of free speech is one of the most profound rights in the United States Constitution. When people seek to exercise that right, the role of MPD should be to facilitate the First Amendment activity and protect the ability of protestors to have their voices heard. Instead, the people who have gathered at Black Lives Matter Plaza have met with police violence; including: The unjustified and excessive use of batons and chemical irritants causing significant physical injuries; Unjustified arrests and detentions; The destruction of tents and supplies set up for the purposes of supporting the health and safety needs of the people protesting; The destruction of protest signs and cultural material; and The destruction of equipment for the preparation of food. The conduct of MPD is not only a violation of the First Amendment, but of the District’s own laws and policies. District law recognizes the sanctity of protest and the importance of people “to engage in First Amendment assembly near the object of their protest so they may be seen and heard.” First Amendment Assemblies Act of 2004, 5- 331.01, et.

At the Department of Employment Services (DOES), we take our commitment to our residents and our unemployment claimants very seriously. We appreciate your concerns and would like to address each of your requests. 1. Backpay: “We urge DOES to plan a claims processing “blitz” in the next 30 days in order to expediently process all remaining claims from 2020 and the backlog of emailed weekly certification forms that resulted from recent IT errors.” The agency did not have IT errors that resulted in a backlog of weekly certification forms that were emailed to DOES. As a result of changing federal guidance, we have utilized a strategy of updating our system while also continuing to collect certification forms, which is a pre-requisite for receiving payments. This strategy allows DOES to have the proper documentation in place to facilitate payments to claimants, as well as ensuring the new federal benefits can be dispersed as quickly as possible. DOES’ unemployment teams are working as quickly as possible to process all eligible claims.

  • Final List George Floyd
    The below collection of data is one of three key elements in Mapping a Moment, a project created by the Cleveland based musical duo the Baker’s Basement. Mapping a Moment was crafted after a long journey across America and beyond in the weeks immediately following the murder of George Floyd. The full presentation includes these 3 parts: 1. A written reflection on the response of Americans in public spaces during a time of crisis 2. A five and a half minute video illustrating this reflection through song, image, and an animated map displaying the occurrence of demonstrations across America 3. The below spreadsheet containing data on over 1600 public demonstrations that occurred from May 25, 2020 to June 13, 2020 in the United States and throughout the international community. To see all three parts of Mapping a Moment, go here: www.thebakersbasement.com/mapping-a-moment To see the full video of the murder of George Floyd, go here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zaGmz4DPlJw&app=desktop&bpctr=1596415559 Summary of Data: The spreadsheet below contains data on a large portion of the public demonstrations held in response to the murder of George Floyd in the weeks immediately following his death (From May 25, 2020 to June 13, 2020). It was collected to help provide a wider understanding of how people in the United States and the international community initially reacted through a variety of public demonstrations. This data was used to construct the animated map presented in the video & song portion of Mapping a Moment - Youtube. This is not to be considered a complete list of the demonstrations that occurred during that time period, but an effort to create a fuller picture of how the USA and the international community reacted in public spaces.

  • 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.
