Stop the Giuliani family dynasty

 

Rudy Giuliani is not only Trump's confidant and attorney but also the father to New York's newest gubernatorial candidate, Andrew Giuliani.   The younger Giuliani has dutifully followed in his father's footsteps -- serving officially as a special assistant to the president during Trump's rule and unofficially as Trump's closest golfing buddy for decades.   The Giuliani dynasty is power-hungry, and the younger Giuliani seems even more excited than his father to carry on Trump's legacy in office.   And that's saying a lot: Rudy Giuliani was associated with practically every backfiring scheme from Trump's last years in office.   We have to stop Andrew Giuliani and his crew of Trump-loving friends from infiltrating EVERY elected office, and that starts with meeting our weekly fundraising goal. We're still $1,247 short, and we need you to pitch in right now to stop the Giuliani family from poisoning American politics for years to come. Can you contribute anything you can right now to help us meet our goal? Thank you for toppling the Giuliani dynasty with us.   Progressive Majority Progressive Majority PAC is leading the fight against Trump's GOP and their dangerous and divisive agenda by supporting elected progressives, helping elect even more progressive Democrats to Congress, and protecting the gains we made in the past election. This movement is powered by progressives like you.   Paid for by Progressive Majority PAC   Progressive Majority PAC 410 1st St, SE Suite 310 Washington, DC 20003 United States

We’re Not Here to Entertain You, We’re Here to Protect You

The mission of Reader Supported News is to take whatever steps are necessary to inform our readership of the threats that exist to democracy, the environment, social justice and international order.

That gets messy and risky. When the budget disappears, it gets exponentially more difficult. Nonetheless, if we have to fight for a budget, we can do that too.

We must have a budget.

FOCUS: Bernie Sanders | What Happens Next in Congress Will Determine Future of Country

Bernie Sanders, CNN
Sanders writes: "In this pivotal moment in American history, Democrats in the US House of Representatives and US Senate, working with the White House, have proposed several pieces of legislation which can strengthen working families, protect the planet and save American democracy from right-wing extremism."

hat happens in Congress in the next few months will determine the future of our country -- and our planet.

In this pivotal moment in American history, Democrats in the US House of Representatives and US Senate, working with the White House, have proposed several pieces of legislation which can strengthen working families, protect the planet and save American democracy from right-wing extremism.

We can create millions of good paying union jobs rebuilding our crumbling roads, bridges, water systems and constructing the millions of units of affordable housing we desperately need. We can also end starvation wages in America by raising the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour. At a time when real wages for American workers have been stagnant for decades, these actions will be a major step forward in improving the standard of living of a declining middle class.

Further, we can create millions more jobs by taking the global leadership in combating climate change -- the existential threat to our planet -- and transforming our energy system away from fossil fuels.

By extending the child tax credit, we can cut childhood poverty nearly in half and end the international embarrassment of the US having one of the highest rates of childhood poverty in the industrialized world.

By having the federal government negotiate drug prices with the pharmaceutical industry, we can not only lower the outrageous cost of prescription drugs but we can raise the necessary funds to expand Medicare to finally cover dental, vision and hearing needs and improve the lives of millions of struggling seniors. We can also provide good quality health coverage to millions of older workers by lowering the eligibility age of Medicare to 55.

By passing universal child care and Pre-K legislation, we can make sure that every child in America, regardless of income or zip code, gets a good start in life. We can also strengthen the economy by enabling parents to go to their jobs knowing that their young children are safe and well taken care of.

By passing paid family and medical leave, we can join every other wealthy country in making certain that workers can stay home with their sick kids or spend precious time with a new born baby.

By making public colleges and universities tuition free, and substantially lowering student debt, we can create the best educated workforce in the world and provide support to a younger generation which, otherwise, will likely have a lower standard of living than their parents.

By passing progressive tax legislation that finally asks the wealthy and large corporations to begin paying their fair share of taxes, we can begin to address the grotesque level of income and wealth inequality and raise trillions of dollars to address the needs of working families.

By passing universal voting rights, ending outrageous levels of gerrymandering and moving forward on campaign finance reform, we can end voter suppression, increase voter turnout and strengthen our democracy.

By passing new criminal justice reform, we can reduce the rate of incarceration and make certain that all of our citizens, regardless of the color of their skin, can safely walk the streets of this country without fear of abusive, illegal or lethal police action.

By passing comprehensive immigration reform we can, after years of inaction, finally give Deferred Action for Childhood Arrival recipients and temporary protected status holders the stability they deserve, and create a path toward citizenship for 11 million undocumented people, many of whom are doing the critical work that keeps our economy going.

Relying on the same budget process we used to pass the American Rescue Plan in March, we can improve the lives of working families with just 50 votes in the Senate and a simple majority in the House of Representatives.

In other words, if the Democrats in the House and Senate are able to stand together, have the courage to take on powerful special interests and do what so many working families of this country want us to do, we can create an economy that works for all and not just the few, we can help save the planet from the ravages of climate change and we can strengthen American democracy.

These are no small accomplishments. They are transformational.

And because good policy is always good politics, passing a progressive and popular agenda like this would, in my view, guarantee that Democrats not only retain control of the House and Senate but expand their majorities in both bodies next election cycle.

But what happens if Democrats go forward in a different direction? What happens if they spend week after week, month after month "negotiating" with Republicans who have little intention of addressing the serious crises facing the working families of this country? What happens if, after the passage of the vitally important American Rescue Plan -- the Covid-19 rescue package signed into law by President Biden in March --the momentum stops and we accomplish little or nothing?

Without strong and ongoing accomplishments that improve the lives of working families, there is a strong possibility that Republicans will win the House or the Senate or both bodies next year. The American people want action, not never-ending "negotiations" and obstructionism, and they will not come out and vote for a party that does not deliver.

And if the Republicans do regain control of Congress, we can be sure that the economy will move steadily forward toward a system in which the rich get richer thanks to increased corporate domination. We can be sure that the climate crisis will intensify, diminishing the likelihood of our children and grandchildren living in a healthy and habitable environment. We can be sure that our government will drift away from democracy, as voter suppression, dark money and conspiracy theories continue to dominate our political system.

This is an unprecedented moment in American history. The Democrats in Congress must move forward boldly, protecting the working families of our country and restoring faith in government. Yes, the future of the country is at stake.

And that is why I'm prepared to do everything in my power as Chairman of the Senate Budget Committee to enact a reconciliation bill that reflects the main tenets of President Joe Biden's transformational agenda, an agenda that millions of Americans want and need in these difficult times.

If not now, when?

By Jay Fitzgerald and Keith Regan 05/28/2021 One more day | Bump sued | Attitude change   Advertisement     Happening Today   Memorial Day weekend   No major events have been announced for today, as the state and nation gear up for the long Memorial Day weekend.     Sponsored Say YES to the hotel comeback! As the hospitality industry comes back to life, the government can act responsibly again - so laid off hotel workers are offered their jobs back as customers come back. Support S.1158 and H.1956. Learn more here.     Today's News   Reminder to readers: SHNS Coronavirus Tracker available for free   A reminder to our readers as the coronavirus crisis unfolds: The paywalled State House News Service, which produces MASSterList, is making its full Coronavirus Tracker available to the community for free on a daily basis each morning via ML. SHNS Coronavirus Tracker.     The coronavirus numbers: 9 new death, 17,491 total deaths, 215 new cases   MassLive has the latest coronavirus numbers for Massachusetts.     Appeals court: OK, you can fire White now   The firing of suspended BPD commissioner Dennis White is a go again. The Globe’s Danny McDonald reports that a state appeals court judge has cleared the way for Acting Mayor Kim Janey to finally fire the embattled top cop, after a lower court judge ruled Janey could and then couldn’t give White the heave. McDonald explains.  Universal Hub’s Adam Gaffin and CommonWealth’s Michael Jonas have more in the crazy legal and political saga. And the Globe’s Joan Vennochi thinks Janey is doing the right thing by canning White. Boston Globe     Advertisement     Tomorrow’s full reopening: ‘It’s like the end of Prohibition'   Is it really almost over? Yes indeedy. CBS Boston reports on the 10 things you can finally do starting tomorrow, when the state fully reopens the economy (with some mask requirements here and there). CBS Boston reports separately that bar and nightclub owners are especially pumped about the end of pandemic business restrictions. And so are amusement-park owners, as the Globe’s Adam Sennott reports. And, btw, Senate President Karen Spilka says the legislative wheels are indeed in motion to extend some of the more popular pandemic-era emergency orders in Massachusetts, reports SHNS’s Katie Lannan.     MassDOT: Memorial Day weekend traffic could exceed 2019 levels   How eager are people to resume their normal lives, now that most COVID-19 restrictions will be lifted tomorrow? So eager that MassDOT’s Jonathan Gulliver expects crowded holiday roadways today and through the weekend. Very crowded. Heather Morrison at MassLive has more. MassLive     Except for masks, pandemic restrictions will be lifted in schools this fall   The state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education last evening alerted school superintendents across the state that A.) In-person learning will be required this fall and B.) COVID-19 restrictions, such as social-distancing rules, will be lifted, though masks will still be required. SHNS’s Katie Lannan and the Globe’s Felicia Gans have more.     Sponsored Thousands of local workers and businesses benefit from film and TV production spending in Massachusetts. Now, the State Senate is considering making the film tax credit program uncompetitive, effectively killing our local industry. Urge the Senate to make our current film tax program permanent and save MA film jobs.  Learn more here.     The last remaining COVID-19 hotspot: Tisbury?   They once numbered more than 200 communities. But now it’s down to just one community on the state’s “high risk” list for the spread of COVID-19: Tisbury on Martha’s Vineyard. MassLive’s Tanner Stening and the Boston Herald’s Rick Sobey have more.     Bharel stepping down as DPH Commissioner   After what we just went through over the past year, can you blame her? MassLive’s Melissa Hanson reports that state Public Health Commissioner Dr. Monica Bharel plans to step down June 18, after six years running the agency and 15 months dealing with the COVID-19 crisis. MassLive     Don’t leave home without it: Cape vaccine card   State Sen. Julian Cyr of Truro and others have some advice for those venturing to the Cape post-reopening: Bring a proof-of-vaccination card just in case. Many businesses may require the card for entry, they say. SHNS’s Katie Lannan and the Globe’s Anissa Gardizy have more.     Auditor Bump’s family firm sued over claims of sexual harassment, pay inequity and Covid compliance   State Auditor Suzanne Bump is being sued by a former employee of her late husband’s Quincy-based substance abuse treatment company, claiming she was the victim of sexual harassment, pay and benefits inequities based on gender and lax Covid-19 protocol compliance, Wheeler Cooperthwaite at the Patriot Ledger reports. This timing is interesting though probably not relevant to the fact that Bump, who took ownership of the firm after her husband died in 2016, announced this week she would not seek re-election.  Patriot Ledger     Advertisement     Senate approves $47.7B budget. Next up: conference committee   From SHNS’s Matt Murphy: “The Senate unanimously passed a $47.7 billion budget for next year after three days of debate over how best to invest state resources as Massachusetts looks to recover from the hardships of the past year of the COVID-19 pandemic.” And here are some sidebar headlines about the Senate budget, all from the indispensable SHNS, starting with Katie Lannan’s piece: “Senate Agrees to Spike Three Tax Breaks/ Branches Must Also Settle Film Tax Credit Differences.” And from SHNS’s Chris Lisinski: “New Senate Plan Revives Push for Higher TNC Fees.”      Senate Dems reject GOP’s ‘back-to-work’ bonuses   Considering how much ink and bandwidth have been expended on the issue, we thought we’d point out that a Republican proposal for a $1,200 ‘return to work’ bonus got shot down by Dems during this past week’s Senate budget deliberations, as SHNS’s Michael Norton reports. SHNS (pay wall -- free trial subscription available)     Attitude change: A year after George Floyd's death, change has indeed come to Beacon Hill   GBH’s Mike Deehan has a good story this morning marking the one-year anniversary of George Flyod’s death – and how it’s changed things on Beacon Hill. Sure, some reforms have been passed. But attitudes in general have also changed, Deehan reports. GBH     Are Baker and Polito about to lose a key state GOP committee fight? Howie certainly hopes so   We usually don’t keep MassterList readers posted on Howie Carr’s latest Baker Derangement Syndrome screed in the Herald. But today he does address the power struggle now under way within the state GOP over control of the party’s executive board – and it looks like conservatives may win this fight.  Fyi: It should be noted that conservatives are trying to do to Baker-Polito today what Baker-Polito tried to do to conservatives five years ago, as the Globe reported back then. Boston Herald         Judge orders Robinhood to follow our Sheriff of Nottingham’s new securities rules   Knowing Bill Galvin, he probably revels in the new nickname. From Bloomberg’s Janelle Lawrence: “Robinhood Markets lost a bid to immediately stop Massachusetts securities regulators from enforcing a new rule that holds brokers accountable to a fiduciary standard of care. Superior Court Judge Kenneth Salinger denied Robinhood’s request for an injunction against the state rule.” Bloomberg News     DUA’s mysterious two-sentence caveat: What does it mean?   It’s the Department of Unemployment Assistance’s equivalent of ‘What’s the frequency Kenneth?’ or ‘I buried Paul,’ i.e. a mysterious two-sentence caveat about a “system processing error” that may impact job-claim estimates. The Globe’s Sean Murphy tries – and fails – to get answers from DUA. Boston Globe     Gust of hope: Mayflower Wind strikes Brayton Point deal   From CommonWealth’s Bruce Mohl: “Mayflower Wind, which is planning to bring ashore on Cape Cod the electricity generated by its first wind farm, said on Thursday that it intends to shift the landing point for the power produced by its future wind farms off the coast of Massachusetts to Brayton Point in Somerset.” But there’s a huge multi-year caveat: Mayflower Wind must first win a second state procurement contract. CommonWealth     Is Somerville the latest ‘next Kendall Square’?   We thought Seaport was supposed to be the next Kendall Square. But, no, Somerville is now the latest ‘next Kendall Square,’ reports the BBJ’s Rowan Walrath and Catherine Carlock, who are well aware of many past claims of next-Kendall-Square status. But wait! It seems a zoning amendment could disrupt Somerville’s bid for next-Kendall-Square status, as Carlock reports separately at the BBJ. BBJ     Prefer to enjoy Keller at Large in print rather than audio? You can access Jon’s most recent columns here: 5/18/21 - Why Boston Needs To Remember Its Miracle 5/11/21 - Geoff Diehl's Bronco Ride To Nowhere 5/4/21 - Keller's Grim Commencement Speech     Long shot: Gordon College to ask U.S. Supreme Court to hear discrimination case   Attorneys for Gordon College say the Wenham Christian school will ask the U.S. Supreme Court to hear an appeal of a recent Supreme Judicial Court ruling that found teachers are not exempt from employment discrimination laws, Julie Manganis of the Salem News reports. The college has argued its teachers act as ministers and can be fired at any time.  Salem News     Who are you? Cape agencies launch outreach to understand newcomers   Welcome, pandemic-fleers. The U.S. Postal Service says Barnstable County had the country’s fourth-highest move-in rate last year as workers freed from the physical workplaces set up shop on the Cape -- and now the Cape Cod Commission says it will hire pollsters from UMass Lowell to learn more about the flood of new residents and their future plans, Cynthia McCormick at the Cape Cod Times reports .
