  • Town of Coventry, Ri Dock
    TOWN COUNCIL MEETING January 24, 2011 5:30 p.m. Work Session – Legislative Delegation, Town Council and School Committee In attendance were Representatives Jared Nunes, Patricia Morgan, Patricia Serpa, Scott Guthrie, Lisa Tomasso and Michael Chippendale and Senators Nicholas Kettle and Glenford Shibley. School Committee members present included Chairwoman Katherine Patenaude and School Committee members Thomas Hetherman, Lianne Russell, Nancy Sprengelmeyer and Judith Liner. Town Council members present were President Gary Cote, Vice-President Kerry McGee, Councilman Ted Jendzejec and Councilman Raymond Spear. Town Manager Thomas Hoover Town Solicitor Frederick Tobin Items for discussion: Replacement of the General Nathanael Greene Memorial Bridge State budget Proposed Legislative actions Increasing the limit for settlement bonds Extension on fire code mandate at Coventry High School Local budget forecasts Unfunded state mandates With regard to anticipated state aid funding, Representative Serpa explained that she has not seen the Governor’s budget yet but will forward all correspondence that she receives to Manager Hoover. She advised that the town should count on no increases. Even though the estimates for projected revenues are looking better, the town should proceed with caution. Neither Representative Serpa nor Senator Shibley have heard anything yet as far as money and agreed that the town should assume no increase, especially since the state has a $350 million shortfall to close. Representative Guthrie thinks the town may be forced to change the way it taxes, for example the motor vehicle tax, as doesn’t expect more money to be given to the cities and towns. Representative Tomasso added that it is important that if the tax rate changes, the levy stays the same.

  • 2018-Mid-Year-Political-Contributions
    1 Verizon Political Activity January – June 2018 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 18 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 and its affiliates during the first half of 2018. 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 Executive Vice President, Public Policy and General Counsel 2 Verizon Political Activity January – June 2018 Political Contributions Policy: Our Voice in the Democratic Process What are the Verizon Political Action Committees? regulations govern many aspects of the contributions process including the setting of monetary contribution limitations and The Verizon Political Action Committees (PACs) exist to help the establishment of periodic reporting requirements.

WARREN LYNCH · WEDNESDAY, JUNE 20, 2018 For all ye doubters (especially those working at NPR) who keep saying that the Berniecrats and progressives are “losing” the 2018 primaries! There are 626 names here, and 82 of them in FEDERAL races! The number of seated progressives is about to at least TRIPLE this November, so don’t believe the hype! (updated 9/16/18) The list is now annotated! People have been asking me for ages: “WHY do these people count as Berniecrats?” So now there’s a key, from most left-leaning to most moderate: (DSA) - endorsed by Democratic Socialists of America, the leftist group that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a member of. (even to the left of Bernie!) (Bernie) - endorsed by Bernie personally (LB) - endorsed by Local Berniecrats, a grassroots group with no money that started on the Internet with the goal of making Bernie’s down-ballot dream come true (OR) - endorsed by Our Revolution, either national or a local branch. The organization started by Bernie Sanders. (W) - personally endorsed by me, Warren Lynch. This candidate is a person I know personally, and I vouch for them that they are a progressive. (JD) - endorsed by Justice Democrats, the group run by The Young Turks (PCCC) - endorsed by, or my friend from, Progressive Change Campaign Committee, the progressive group which sent me to DC to learn stuff. Some of their candidates are a bit moderate or not Berniecrats per se, but all are strong bold progressives.
