Dapat Pumirma si Trump sa Ethics Pledge at Transition Documents

Hindi pa rin lumagda si President-elect Donald Trump ng mga legal na dokumento – kabilang ang isang ethics pledge – na kailangan para pormal na simulan ang paglipat ng kapangyarihan ng kanyang administrasyon. Karaniwang inihahain ng mga kandidato ang mga dokumentong ito bago ang halalan. Bilang resulta ng pagkaantala na ito, hindi makakapagbigay ang gobyerno ng mga security clearance, briefing at mapagkukunan sa papasok na team ni Trump bago siya manumpa sa opisina sa ika-20 ng Enero.

New York Daily News: Democrats back election law change to remove former Lt. Gov. Brian Benjamin from ballot

“This is a problem for New Yorkers who will confront a ballot that does not reflect the reality of the field, and may end up throwing away their vote on a candidate who is not running for office,” said Susan Lerner, executive director of Common Cause/NY. “It’s simply unfair and wrong to present the voters with a false choice.”

Grid: How Big Tech is quietly pushing for watered-down state privacy laws

“I can generally say that there’s certainly the potential for influence from industry giving money to legislators,” said Yosef Getachew, director of the Media and Democracy Program at Common Cause. ...

Getachew noted that the implications of privacy laws extend well past traditional technology companies.

“A lot of the telecom companies have engaged in certain data practices that implicate them and privacy bills, and a lot of telecom companies are working businesses outside of the traditional telecom...

Georgia Public Broadcasting: Ethics experts say Herschel Walker’s U.S. Senate financial disclosure bears further scrutiny

But without a listing of clients that might have paid Walker or the company more than $5,000, the true picture of Walker’s finance is incomplete, said Stephen Spaulding with government watchdog group Common Cause.

“According to this candidate’s financial disclosure form, no person or entity paid more than $5,000 for any services provided by him — at the same time, he disclosed an interest in an LLC valued at more than $25 million and that provides ‘business consulting and professional services,’” Spaulding said....

Baltimore Sun/Tribune News Service: Without a national solution, Maryland Democrats squeezed into uncomfortable spot on redistricting

“There’s a lot that’s just not being said,” said Joanne Antoine, executive director of Common Cause Maryland, a nonpartisan group that focuses on government accountability. “When we talk about politics getting ugly, I think redistricting is at the center of all of it.” ...

Common Cause’s Antoine said redistricting presents a bad look for the state.

“Voters have no reason to trust the redistricting process. The process is riddled with problems,” she said. “We continue to punt to this idea of a...

Confirmation of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to Supreme Court a Victory for the American People 

Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation to the Supreme Court is a victory for the American people at a time when our democracy is under siege. Soon-to-be Justice Jackson has demonstrated a longstanding and unwavering commitment to justice for all Americans. That commitment will be crucial as it has increasingly fallen to the courts to serve as a bulwark to our democracy at a time when too many politicians are passing laws to make it harder for certain Americans – particularly Black and Brown Americans - to vote and to be heard by those...

Ngunit si Karen Hobert Flynn, presidente ng grupo ng reporma sa demokrasya na Common Cause, ay nagsabi: "Ang katotohanan dahil ang desisyon na iyon ay nagpapakita na ito ay hindi kinakailangang independyente - nakikita natin ang maraming koordinasyon sa pagitan ng mga kandidato at Super Pacs - at nagdudulot ito ng malaking pinsala sa ating hindi perpektong demokrasya kung saan ang mayayamang mega-donor, mga korporasyon, mga grupo ng espesyal na interes ay hindi lamang nakakaapekto at nakakaimpluwensya sa mga halalan ngunit, kapag nahalal, ang mga mambabatas ay nararamdaman na kailangan nilang magbigay ng pabor para sa mga nagpopondo sa kanilang mga kampanya.

Beth Rotman, national director of money in politics and ethics at watchdog Common Cause, told CNBC that new ethics laws governing Supreme Court justices should require them to disclose more details of their spouses’ consulting contracts.

“Disclosure must be robust for it to be truly meaningful in this context so financial disclosures should include consulting contracts. As you have seen already, when justices complete their annual reports, they list information that does not give a complete view of their spouse’s...

Hinihimok ng Common Cause ang mga Miyembro ng Kamara na Suportahan ang mga Criminal Contempt Charges para kay Navarro at Scavino dahil sa Pagbabalewala sa mga Congressional Subpoena

Today, Common Cause urged every member of the U.S. House of Representatives to vote “yes” on the resolution to certify criminal contempt citations against former Trump Administration officials Peter Navarro and Dan Scavino for refusing to comply with subpoenas related to their roles in, and knowledge of, the January 6th insurrection at the United States Capitol. The brazen attempt to overturn the 2020 election resulted in multiple deaths and left hundreds seriously injured. The letter emphasizes that the House Select Committee...
