Repudiation! the Crisis of United States Civil War Debt, 1865-1870

The Crisis of United States Civil War Debt, 1865-1870 Dr. Franklin Noll President Noll Historical Consulting, LLC Electronic copy available at: http://ssrn.com/abstract=2196409 Repudiation!

Abstract: From 1865 to 1870, a crisis atmosphere hovered around the issue of the massive public debt created during the recently concluded Civil War, leading, in part, to the passage of a Constitutional Amendment ensuring the “validity of the public debt.” However, the Civil War debt crisis was not a financial one, but a political one. The Republican and Democratic Parties took concerns over the public debt and magnified them into panics so that they could serve political ends—there was never any real danger that the United States would default on its debt for financial reasons. There were, in fact, three interrelated crises generated during the period: a repudiation crisis (grounded upon fears of the cancellation of the war debt), a repayment crisis (arising from calls to repay the debt in depreciated currency), and a refunding crisis (stemming from a concern of a run on the Treasury). The end of the Civil War debt crisis came only when there was no more political advantage to be gained from exploiting the issue of the public debt. -

Waltz Florida Dems PPP Letter (/Uploadedfiles/Waltzsba FDP PPP)
October 8, 2020 The Honorable Hannibal “Mike” Ware Inspector General U.S. Small Business Administration 409 3rd Street SW Washington, D.C. 20416 Dear Inspector General Ware: The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) was designed to provide a direct incentive for small businesses to keep their workers on the payroll. Congress intended the program to provide relief to America’s small businesses quickly, and demand for the program was extraordinary: PPP lenders approved more than 1.6 million loans totaling more than $342 billion in the program’s first two weeks, according to your office.1 The Small Business Administration subsequently released data that shows a political organization may have taken advantage of the program’s expedited nature to obtain funds for which they were ineligible. Specifically, the data show a Democrat-affiliated political organization in Florida applied for and received PPP funds, contrary to the intent of Congress that the program should support small businesses, non-profits, veterans’ organizations, and tribal concerns. The Small Business Administration issued regulations that specifically prohibit “businesses primarily engaged in political or lobbying activities” from receiving PPP loans.2 Despite this restriction, the Florida Democratic Party (FDP) applied for and received a PPP loan worth $780,000.3 The details of the FDP loan application raise serious questions as to whether the applicant intentionally misled the Small Business Administration in order to obtain PPP funds. FDP filed its application under the identity of a non-profit organization called the “Florida Democratic Party Building Fund, Inc.” The Florida Democratic Party Building Fund, Inc. is a separate legal entity from the Florida Democratic Party, but Florida state records show the party formed the not-for-profit corporation in April of 2019 to construct, own or operate “the headquarters of the state executive committee of the Florida Democratic Party and related political organizations.”4 Documents show the Florida Democratic Party Building Fund, Inc. -

HUGHS, et al., § Defendants. § DEFENDANTS’ RESPONSE IN OPPOSITION TO INTERVENORS’ MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT AND COUNTER-MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT DISMISSING INTERVENORS Intervenors1 lack standing and their sole claim is meritless. Their Motion for Summary Judgment, Dkt. 77—which presents no new facts or authority to alter this conclusion—should be denied, and the Court should enter summary judgment dismissing Intervenors from this case. FACTUAL BACKGROUND I. Texas Voter Registration Voter registration in Texas is governed by a carefully considered statutory framework. Importantly here, “[a] registration application must be in writing and signed by the applicant.” TEX. ELEC. CODE § 13.002(b); see also id. § 65.056(a) (allowing the affidavit on a provisional ballot to serve as a voter-registration application if it contains the necessary information). Likewise, any request to change voter-registration information must also be in writing and signed. Id. § 15.021(a). The signatures may then be used for, inter alia, investigations of fraud or identity theft, consideration of absentee ballots, or if there are any problems with electronically captured signatures.

No one filed to challenge her by the deadline, which means she will be unopposed this November and will take her seat on the bench in January. I am proud of the races Melissa and Stephen Smith ran for this seat, and I know she will represent us well in this new capacity. Congratulations too to all who won their races for municipal seats and now move on to the General Election. Portage County residents will have a number of great options this fall when they go to the ballot to choose their local leaders, and I look forward to working to elect these fine Democrats in the months ahead. Below, you will find several opportunities for engagement happening in the weeks ahead. I hop you'll take advantage of them and keep up the good work we're doing to lead Portage County forward. If there are items you'd like us to share in future newsletters, please don't hesitate to let us know by responding to this email.
