Các nhóm thúc giục thay đổi điều tra dân số để đếm chính xác dân số nhà tù để phân chia lại khu vực

Hôm nay, Common Cause và Prison Policy Initiative đã thúc giục Cục Thống kê Dân số Hoa Kỳ thay đổi cách tính dân số nhà tù mỗi thập kỷ. Việc Cục sử dụng quyền riêng tư khác biệt, tức là cố tình đưa thông tin không chính xác vào dữ liệu dân số, tạo ra những sai sót không cần thiết trong dữ liệu được các viên chức tiểu bang và địa phương sử dụng để phân chia lại khu vực. Trong một lá thư gửi cho Giám đốc Robert L. Santos và các viên chức cấp cao khác, các nhóm nhấn mạnh rằng dân số của các cơ sở cải huấn đã được công khai và quyền riêng tư khác biệt là...

San Diego Union-Tribune: Hunter will likely receive his taxpayer-funded congressional pension despite guilty plea

“He pleaded to a single felony but not one that is specifically included in the Honest Leadership and Open Government Act,” said Beth A. Rotman, an attorney who is the money in politics and ethics program director for the good government group Common Cause. Rotman noted that while the law includes many more crimes than it did 20 years ago, “It’s not everything. In cases like this, the desire to keep the pension could be one of the reasons someone accepts a plea that is only a portion of the charges.”

USA Today (Op-Ed): The Dayton Daily News is about to shrink. The FCC shouldn’t have allowed it: Dayton mayor

Local newspapers provide a public good that far outweighs their financial value. And the FCC is supposed to ensure that public good is maintained. The approval of this merger with its explicit endorsement of profit over the public interest demonstrates that the FCC has lost its way.

NBC News: Gerrymandering is alive and well. The coming battle will be bigger than ever.

The South is "ground zero for this fight," said Dan Vicuña, a redistricting expert at Common Cause.
Vicuña said the Supreme Court's decision has put in place a "new legal playing field" for partisan gerrymandering and lawmakers can be expected to try to take advantage of that when they are drawing the House maps.
"You'll see kind of more blatant partisanship," he told NBC News.

San Jose Mercury News (Op-Ed): California redistricting should serve as national model

In 2008, I led efforts to fundamentally change California’s redistricting process.
With an unusual coalition of left, right and center allies, we created the nation’s first independent citizens redistricting commission. The power to draw voting maps was taken from politicians and given to people like you and me.
Today our redistricting process is independent and community-led with the goal of keeping communities together in the new maps. No longer behind closed doors, drawing voting lines is conducted openly and transparently.

“Bob Phillips is what’s good about politics,” Dennis Wicker told The News & Observer in an interview. Wicker, a Democrat, served as lieutenant governor from 1993 to 2000 and considered Phillips a trusted advisor, then and now.
“He understands public service starts with fair elections and open elections,” Wicker said. “He’s a true believer that great public service is born from a strong and fair democracy.”

Associated Press: Gabbard faces heat back home for present vote on impeachment

Sandy Ma, the executive director of Common Cause Hawaii, said Gabbard’s votes aren’t representative of the people in her district. She said Gabbard “shamed herself.”

Common Cause Hails $425 Million Election Security Funding but Warns Much More is Needed

At a time of deep partisan divide in Washington, Congress deserves credit for allocating significant additional resources for election security in the face of ongoing attacks on our election infrastructure by hostile foreign governments. This $425 million can be put to good use toward critical contingency plans for the 2020 elections should election systems fail due to foreign interference. As national intelligence agencies have warned the attacks on our election infrastructure are ongoing.

In Wake of Trump Impeachment, Common Cause Urges Fair Trial in Senate

The American people deserve a fair trial of the impeached and disgraced President in the United States Senate – not a show trial to attempt to excuse the abuses of office which led to President Trump’s impeachment. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and his GOP colleagues must put the interests of the nation before the interests of their political party. If Senator McConnell honestly believes that President Trump is innocent of the high crimes for which he was impeached by the House then he should agree a fair trial.

Critics say the partisan nature of Will’s case is clear. “Let’s be honest, Esenberg wouldn’t be pursuing this if it was going to decrease the number of conservative Republican voters as opposed to Democratic and progressive voters,” said Jay Heck, executive director of Common Cause Wisconsin. ...
“They’ll wait in line and then they’ll find out that they’re not registered and then they’ll be told they have to register,” Heck said. “You’ll have people who just say ‘to hell with it’”.

Boston's rally was bipartisan, with not only Democrats invited to speak but also former Massachusetts Republican Gov. William Weld, who is challenging Trump for the GOP presidential nomination, said Pam Wilmot, the executive director of Common Cause Massachusetts, one of the organizers.

Sinclair Broadcasting: Congress steps up election security funding, but experts warn it still falls short

Susannah Goodman, director of election security for Common Cause. stressed that does not necessarily mean high-tech or expensive solutions. Many of the likely consequences of an attack on election systems—machines malfunctioning, inaccurate voter registrations, loss of power—are things election administrators have faced before and can be mitigated with robust back-up plans.
“We don’t need a ‘Star Wars’ sort of defense system over our election infrastructure, but we do need to support our states and counties with these funds...
