CAFTA Falls Far Short of a Consensus on Trade by Rep
CAFTA Falls Far Short of a Consensus on Trade By Rep. Adam Smith, Rick Larsen and Brian Baird Seattle Times: Opinion May 6, 2005 Our nation's economic and trade policy under President Bush has consistently failed to help workers both within the United States and internationally prepare for the challenges of the global economy. Domestically, the Bush administration's fiscal irresponsibility with tax cuts and unnecessary spending priorities has crippled our ability to help workers retrain and compete on the international stage. Globally, through its trade policy, this administration has done little to help workers overseas. With the the Dominican Republic-Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA), the administration missed an opportunity to craft a pact that balances the need to open more global markets to American workers and businesses with the need to ensure that our workers and businesses can compete and prosper in those global markets. Our nation's trade policy is only one spoke in the wheel of economic policy. Yet, this administration has replaced that economic wheel with one spoke - trade. With an active global-trade policy coupled with an inactive economic-competitiveness policy, our businesses and workers will be left in the dust of economic progress. Because of these and other concerns listed below, we will oppose CAFTA when it comes to the floor of the House of Representatives. We support trade and know firsthand its critical importance to Washington state. That is why it is essential that we have a trade policy that provides American workers and businesses with real opportunities to grow and that expands and strengthens our economy. -

Letter from State-Level Elected Leaders in All 50 States Supporting Betsy Devos for Secretary of Education
LETTER FROM STATE-LEVEL ELECTED LEADERS IN ALL 50 STATES SUPPORTING BETSY DEVOS FOR SECRETARY OF EDUCATION January 17, 2017 The Honorable Lamar Alexander Chairman U.S. Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions 428 Dirksen Senate Office Building Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Chairman Alexander, As one of the most critical issues impacting the future of our nation, we must have a Secretary of Education committed to the needs of all of our nation’s children. Betsy DeVos has made it her life’s mission to find, support and push for education solutions in her home state of Michigan and across the country. She is an advocate and ally for all children, and we write to you today to express our support for her nomination to this important position as her confirmation hearing approaches. We represent elected state offices from all 50 states, and as such, we each know the impact of an overgrown federal government reaching into the states to push a one-size-fits all approach to education. No two states, localities or school districts are the same, nor are the needs of the children who reside there. Betsy DeVos understands this distinction and for years has embraced a variety of education solutions to meet this need. Her support for an all-of-the-above approach to K-12 education – from charter schools, to public, private and online education – defines the school choice movement that has helped countless children across many of our states. By advancing these innovative solutions from the Department of Education, Betsy DeVos will put children first and empower not only states to lead the way in making critical education decisions, but also empower parents to choose what type of education is best for their children. -

Week 10 Idaho Legislative Update for March 15-19, 2021
Week 10 Idaho Legislative Update for March 15-19, 2021 The tenth week of the First Regular Session of the Sixty-Sixth Idaho Legislature was fueled by a fervent push to move toward "Sine Die" but ended abruptly Friday as word of several House Members contracting COVID 19 spread. This resulted in the House and Senate pausing for 18 days. The Idaho Legislature is now in recess until April 6, 2021. Prior to recessing this week, both chambers were meeting on the floor morning and afternoon with committee hearings interspersed. Debates were lengthy. The Senate Calendar has 78 items remaining, with more to be added. The House Calendars have 68 items to be dealt with in addition to those bills still moving through committees. With over 150 bills still working through the process on the floor and in committee, the session seems far from over. This week we saw the introduction of another new transportation idea and a tax relief bill fast-tracked through the House, which was later found to have a significant drafting error that will likely mean amendments are necessary in the Senate. The big battles of the session were certainly ramping up before the abrupt stop. Thursday, Idaho Governor Brad Little held a Press Conference where he outlined the state's allocation of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) federal funding. How the state will spend billions of dollars, which, based on current U.S. Treasury guidance, cannot be used for tax relief, the top priority for the Governor and Idaho Legislature. The Joint Finance and Appropriations Committee (JFAC) spent the week concluding its budget settings. -
