  • Congress Approves Spending Bills House Approves USMCA
    In classic Greek mythology, a golden apple of discord inscribed "For the fairest" was awarded to Aphrodite, beginning a chain of events that led to the Trojan War. GrayRobinson's newsletter reports on the most recent issues, individuals, and discourse deemed fairest in Washington. December 20, 2019 Are you tired? We’re tired. The House of Representatives debated and voted on two articles of impeachment against the President of the United States, but the House and Senate also voted on bills to fund the government through the end of the next fiscal year, and the House struck a deal with the White House on the US-Mexico-Canada free trade agreement (USMCA). We’re ready for the weekend. But first . Congress approves spending bills The House and Senate approved two spending bills that will keep the government running through September 30, 2020. HR 1158 provides funding for the Departments of Defense, Commerce, Justice, Treasury, and Homeland Security; the Judiciary; the independent agencies; and all related agencies. HR 1865 provides funding for the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, Agriculture, Energy, Interior, Veterans Affairs, State, Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, and all related agencies. Among provisions of interest to our clients, the package includes: Reauthorization of the Export-Import Bank for seven years Reauthorization of Brand USA through 2027 A requirement that HUD issue guidelines for including manufactured housing in community plans for housing affordability and community development, as described in S. 1804 Retroactive renewal of the $1-per-gallon biodiesel tax credit, with extension through 2022 House approves USMCA Yesterday the House of Representatives voted 385-41 for legislation to implement the US- Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA).

  • Jefferson Van Drew
    DECEMBER 2019 GLOBE 2019 YEAR IN REVIEW NONE OF THE ABOVE WINNER OF THE YEAR BRITTANY O’NEILL OPERATIVE OF THE YEAR DONALD TRUMP’S : NEW BEST FRIEND JEFFERSON VAN DREW 2019: YEAR IN REVIEW | 1 2019: YEAR IN REVIEW | 2 NEW JERSEY GLOBE POWER LIST 2019 That removes one typically automatic Sweeney vote from the Senate Democrats, unless the senate president can convert Mike Testa into a Sweeneycan. There were also two prominent party switchers: freshman Rep. Jeff Van Drew became a Republican, and State Sen. Dawn Addiego is now a Democrat. In the year of the unlikely voter, just 27% of New Jersey voters cast their ballots in 2019 – a number that was up 5% over 2015 thanks to the state’s new vote-by-mail law that caused the participation of many New Jerseyans who would never have voted if ballots didn’t show up at their homes. A 5% increase was significant. Off-off year elections like 2019 when State Assembly candidates head the ticket happens twice every other decade, so New Jersey won’t see another one until 2035. The race for Democratic State Chairman ended in a draw – John Currie keeps the job for eighteen months, when LeRoy Jones takes over. Legislative reapportionment, which was the entire reason for the state chairman battle, gives an edge to the anti-Murphy faction – if that’s where Jones is when the new districts are drawn. Murphy continues to struggle to win the approval of New Jersey voters, yet he appears – at least right now – to have a lock on the Democratic nomination when he seeks re-election in 2021.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PRESS CONTACT: Tina Berger October 29, 2019 703.842.0740
    Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission NEWS RELEASE Sustainable and Cooperative Management of Atlantic Coastal Fisheries FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PRESS CONTACT: Tina Berger October 29, 2019 703.842.0740 ASMFC Horseshoe Crab Board Sets 2020 Specifications for Horseshoe Crabs of Delaware Bay Origin New Castle, NH – The Commission’s Horseshoe Crab Management Board approved the harvest specifications for horseshoe crabs of Delaware Bay origin. Under the Adaptive Resource Management (ARM) Framework, the Board set a harvest limit of 500,000 Delaware Bay male horseshoe crabs and zero female horseshoe crabs for the 2020 season. Based on the allocation mechanism established in Addendum VII, the following quotas were set for the States of New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland and the Commonwealth of Virginia, which harvest horseshoe crabs of Delaware Bay origin: Delaware Bay Origin Horseshoe Crab Quota Total Quota** (no. of crabs) State Male Only Male Only Delaware 162,136 162,136 New Jersey 162,136 162,136 Maryland 141,112 255,980 Virginia* 34,615 81,331 *Virginia harvest refers to harvest east of the COLREGS line only ** Total male harvest includes crabs which are not of Delaware Bay origin. The Board chose a harvest package based on the Delaware Bay Ecosystem Technical Committee’s and ARM Subcommittee’s recommendation. The ARM Framework, established through Addendum VII, incorporates both shorebird and horseshoe crab abundance levels to set optimized harvest levels for horseshoe crabs of Delaware Bay origin. The horseshoe crab abundance estimate was based on data from the Benthic Trawl Survey conducted by Virginia Polytechnic Institute (Virginia Tech). This survey, which is the primary data source for assessing Delaware Bay horseshoe crab abundance for the past two years, as well as the ongoing benchmark stock assessment, does not have a consistent funding source.

  • ABSTRACT Guided Probabilistic Topic Models for Agenda-Setting
    ABSTRACT Title of dissertation: Guided Probabilistic Topic Models for Agenda-setting and Framing Viet-An Nguyen, Doctor of Philosophy, 2015 Dissertation directed by: Professor Philip Resnik Department of Linguistics and Institute for Advanced Computer Studies Professor Jordan Boyd-Graber College of Information Studies Institute for Advanced Computer Studies Probabilistic topic models are powerful methods to uncover hidden thematic structures in text by projecting each document into a low dimensional space spanned by a set of topics. Given observed text data, topic models infer these hidden struc- tures and use them for data summarization, exploratory analysis, and predictions, which have been applied to a broad range of disciplines. Politics and political conflicts are often captured in text. Traditional ap- proaches to analyze text in political science and other related fields often require close reading and manual labeling, which is labor-intensive and hinders the use of large-scale collections of text. Recent work, both in computer science and political science, has used automated content analysis methods, especially topic models to substantially reduce the cost of analyzing text at large scale. In this thesis, we follow this approach and develop a series of new probabilistic topic models, guided by additional information associated with the text, to discover and analyze agenda- setting (i.e., what topics people talk about) and framing (i.e., how people talk about those topics), a central research problem in political science, communication, public policy and other related fields. We first focus on study agendas and agenda control behavior in political de- bates and other conversations. The model we introduce, Speaker Identity for Topic Segmentation (SITS), is able to discover what topics that are talked about during the debates, when these topics change, and a speaker-specific measure of agenda control.

In doing so, we played a large role in the monumental election of President Barack Obama. Through our “Boots on the Ground” program, Lobby Week, and other activist endeavors, NATCA surpassed the hands of power and acts of oppression and elected a man whose vision includes a commitment to restoring fairness; one that will help us achieve what we have long been awaiting. The next year will be one of hope, promise and change. We have welcomed Transportation Secre- tary Ray LaHood who will follow the direction of the White House and Congress to address our country’s problems, including NATCA’s contract dispute with the FAA. This progress report highlights all that our union has accomplished in 2008. From the election of President Obama to NATCA in Washington and Communicating for Safety, NATCA has remained busy paving the way for a successful future. Through an escalating amount of media attention, we are getting closer to our anticipated outcome of recognition and respect among the aviation in- dustry. We will remain persistent against the FAA as we collectively work towards our common goal. Our members have gotten us where we are today, and without you, the remarkable milestones of the past year would not have been possible.

  • Offshore Drilling Proposal Public Hearing Scheduled Dear Mayor
    March 6, 2015 RE: Offshore Drilling Proposal Public Hearing Scheduled Dear Mayor: On January 27, 2015, U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) Secretary Sally Jewell announced a Draft Proposed Program (DPP) for the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management’s (BOEM’s) 2017- 2022 off-shore oil and gas drilling program. The DPP schedules 14 potential lease sales for the 2017–2022 period in eight program areas – 10 sales in the Gulf of Mexico, one in the Atlantic (which would cover portions of two planning areas) and three off the coast of Alaska. On behalf of their colleagues in municipal office, up and down New Jersey’s maritime coast; on behalf of the workers and businesspeople whose livelihood depends on the health of our coastal waters; on behalf of the millions of visitors who annually visit our ocean and bay beaches for rest and recreation; and on behalf of the millions who count on our salt water fisheries for nourishment and enjoyment; League President, Mayor Brian Wahler of Piscataway, and a number of members of our Executive Board wrote to Secretary Jewell, to register objections to the plan to permit oil and gas exploration on a site, yet to be determined, somewhere off the shores of our southern Atlantic Coast neighbors. This latest proposal in the development of the Nation’s Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Oil and Gas Leasing Program for 2017-2022 will put at risk a fragile and priceless ecosystem that supports an irreplaceable and diverse array of marine life. Further, Atlantic Coast drilling will jeopardize New Jersey’s $38 billion tourist industry, which has just begun to recover from the havoc wreaked by Superstorm Sandy.
