Who knows how to use it.” (“Lessons” 7.1) “I would suggest, then, that the monsters are not an inexplicable blunder of taste; they are essential, fundamentally allied to the underlying ideas of the poem …” (J.R.R. Tolkien, “Beowulf: The Monsters and the Critics”) Introduction: Names and Blood in the Buffyverse [1] In Joss Whedon’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997-2003) and Angel (1999- 2004), words are not something to be taken lightly. A word read out of place can set a book on fire (“Superstar” 4.17) or send a person to a hell dimension (“Belonging” A2.19); a poorly performed spell can turn mortal enemies into soppy lovebirds (“Something Blue” 4.9); a word in a prophecy might mean “to live” or “to die” or both (“To Shanshu in L.A.” A1.22).

  • COVID-19 Legislative Update
    COVID-19 Legislative Update June 29, 2020 Legislation Supplemental IV Timeline/Process/Politics: While Congress has been focused on infrastructure, police reform, the FY21 NDAA, movement toward the next supplemental has stalled. However, over the weekend, Senate Republican appropriators have begun to seriously consider what to include in the next package. As the federal boost to unemployment insurance ends July 31, lawmakers will attempt to put something on the floor before August. It should not be forgotten that the most recent supplemental, which only focused on the Paycheck Protection Program and its funding, took multiple weeks to negotiate. August looms large. Policy: While the Heroes Act will not be taken up by the Senate (as Sen. McConnell has indicated), it can serve as a marker of what the Senate will be responding to. Heroes Act text (as of 5/12/2020) here. Section by section here. One pager here. State and Local one pager here. NCAI’s summary on tribal provisions here. Manager’s amendment here. House Rules Committee report here. While we have yet to see what plan Senate Republicans will propose that threads the needle on liability protection, we’ve seen a bipartisan bill in the House on the issue from Reps. Garret Graves (R-LA) and Henry Cuellar (D-TX). However, Democrats have been disregarding that proposal and have looked to Rep. Lou Correa (D-CA) to take the lead or at least be involved in whatever compromise comes out on liability protection.

  • 2020 Election Recap
    2020 Election Recap Below NACCHO summarizes election results and changes expected for 2021. Democrats will continue to lead the House of Representatives…but with a smaller majority. This means that many of the key committees for public health will continue to be chaired by the same members, with notable exceptions of the Appropriations Committee, where Chair Nita Lowey (D-NY) did not run for reelection; the Agriculture Committee, which has some jurisdiction around food safety and nutrition, whose Chair, Colin Peterson (D-MN) lost, as well as the Ranking Member for the Energy and Commerce Committee, Rep. Greg Walden, (R-OR) who did not run for reelection. After the 117th Congress convenes in January, internal leadership elections will determine who heads these and other committees.
