Trump Must Sign Ethics Pledge & Transition Documents

President-elect Donald Trump still has not signed legal documents – including an ethics pledge - needed to formally begin his administration’s transition of power. Candidates usually file these documents well in advance of the election. As a result of this delay, the government cannot provide security clearances, briefings and resources to Trump’s incoming team before he is sworn into office on January 20th.

Raw Story/Common Dreams: '우리 민주주의가 요구합니다': 민주당이 투표의 자유법을 부활시키자 인권 단체가 환호

Common Cause의 임시 공동대표인 Marilyn Carpinteyro는 화요일에 자신의 단체와 150만 명이 넘는 회원 및 지지자들을 대신하여 모든 의원에게 "투표의 자유법을 강력히 지지하고 이번 달 초 하원 공화당원들이 발의한 '미국 선거 신뢰법(ACE)'에 강력히 반대한다"는 내용의 서한을 보냈습니다.

"ACE법은 거대한 퇴보이며, 투표에 장벽을 세우고 수백만 달러를 허용함으로써 일반 미국인의 목소리를 침묵시킬 것입니다.

Common Cause는 투표의 자유법에 대한 지원을 촉구합니다.

Common Cause는 투표의 자유법에 대한 지원을 촉구합니다.  

오늘 Common Cause는 미국 상원과 하원의 모든 의원에게 투표의 자유법(S. 1/HR11)을 지지할 것을 촉구합니다. 이 법은 투표자를 변혁시키고 부패를 방지하는 법안이며, 하원의 투표자 반대 "미국의 선거 신뢰"(ACE)법에 반대합니다. Common Cause는 상원과 하원 전체에 보낸 편지에서 투표의 자유법이 미국인이 투표소에서 자신의 목소리를 낼 수 있는 자유를 강화하고, 당파적 선거구 조작을 종식시키고, 위험한 선거 방해 행위에 맞서 싸우고, ...

NBC News: North Carolina elections at risk of chaos with Legislature’s proposed overhaul

“How do they get anything done? Are the important decisions going to be deadlocked? The consequences of that, as we are learning, could be devastating,” said Bob Phillips, executive director of Common Cause North Carolina.

Early voting polling sites and schedules must be approved by the unanimous support of a county election board under current law, Phillips said. If a member of the county board objects, the state board must decide. If it cannot, he said, current law says the only early voting site would be the county board...

Los Angeles Times Editorial: Los Angeles needs a bigger City Council. Here are three ways to get it

Some groups argue L.A. shouldn’t pick a number, but rather set the ideal level of representation. California Common Cause, a good-government advocacy organization, has urged the city to create 150,000-resident districts — the equivalent of 27 districts based on current population — and allow the number of districts to rise or fall every 10 years with population changes.

A hybrid system has some potential pitfalls, warned Kathay Feng with Common Cause. 

“I do think you can have a mixed system if the...

HuffPost: House GOP Wants To Make It Harder To Vote, Easier To Give Dark Money

“There’s a clear contrast here between the two visions for what each party views for going forward with American democracy,” said Aaron Scherb, senior director of legislative affairs at Common Cause, a nonpartisan nonprofit. “One party wants to make it harder for Americans to vote and wants there to be more big money in politics, and the other party wants to make sure that all eligible Americans can vote and wants to make sure big money does not dominate politics.”

CalMatters: What happened to the big changes to California elections?

Officials from Common Cause California, a good government advocacy group that is co-sponsoring AB 1248 and AB 764, said they’re excited to see the “groundswell of support” for independent redistricting this year.

“There are some technical amendments to do to make sure the bills don’t conflict with each other,” said Laurel Brodzinsky, legislative director for the organization. “But definitely on a policy level, it’s really exciting to see.”

Cape Gazette: Seaford voting bill, bond bill pass house after some maneuvering

Common Cause of Delaware along with the American Civil Liberties Union both oppose the legislation that they say will dilute votes of minority residents.

“We’re horrified and disappointed that this bill passed. Corporations have no place in our elections – full stop,” said Claire Snyder-Hall, executive director of Common Cause Delaware. “In a state with more registered businesses than residents, this bill gives wealthy outsiders the power to override the actual people of Seaford. Hopefully, it will not make it through...

Associated Press: 6 charged in alleged straw donor scheme to help get Eric Adams elected New York City mayor

Susan Lerner, the executive director of the watchdog group Common Cause New York, said it was too soon to know if Adams had acted improperly. But she said the indictment was evidence that the city’s public financing system was working as intended.

“The campaign finance system we have in New York City deliberately makes it harder for people who want to buy influence,” Lerner said. “The lesson here is do not try to game the system because you will be caught.”

“We know there are folks engaging with these state agencies who otherwise aren’t registered to vote, so this is a great way to ensure they’re getting on the voter rolls,” said Geoff Foster, the executive director of Common Cause Massachusetts, which played a key role in getting the state’s Medicaid AVR system passed.

“AVR was a huge win to address … the disconnect keeping a certain part of our population who are otherwise eligible to vote from getting on the voter rolls. And Medicaid recipients are certainly part...

In a Voting Rights Act case, Allen v.

Kathay Feng, vice president of programs at Common Cause, said the case has massive consequences for minority voters nationwide.

Inside Sources/Tribune New Service/St. Louis Post-Dispatch (Op-Ed): ‘We the People’ must strengthen our democracy

The state of the republic is precarious. But I am hopeful that democracy will prevail because it is resilient.

We the people have faced serious threats in the past, including even the Civil War, and we have overcome them. We must continue to pass laws to strengthen our democracy in many states. In other states, we will not back down from defeating a new generation of Jim Crow laws crafted to keep targeted communities from the polls.
