Trump phải ký cam kết đạo đức và các tài liệu chuyển giao

Tổng thống đắc cử Donald Trump vẫn chưa ký các văn bản pháp lý – bao gồm một cam kết về đạo đức – cần thiết để chính thức bắt đầu quá trình chuyển giao quyền lực của chính quyền ông. Các ứng cử viên thường nộp các văn bản này trước cuộc bầu cử khá lâu. Do sự chậm trễ này, chính phủ không thể cung cấp giấy phép an ninh, thông tin tóm tắt và nguồn lực cho nhóm mới của Trump trước khi ông tuyên thệ nhậm chức vào ngày 20 tháng 1.

Kansas City Star/Yahoo! News: Kansas Senate drops effort to remove ethics watchdog as details of investigation emerge

“It’s really outrageous on a number of fronts,” said Beth Rotman, money in politics and ethics program director at Common Cause, a national group that promotes government accountability.

“This ethics agency has a job to do for everyday Americans,” Rotman said. “They have a job to do for we the people who have these laws in place, and they have a job to do and if there has been any potential issue they need to investigate, they need to be able to start to do their jobs and go forward with this without potential...

PolitiFact: Terrorism bulletin not attempt to criminalize free speech, despite claim

"We've seen real-life harm caused by election disinformation," said Jesse Littlewood, vice president for campaigns with Common Cause, a voter advocacy group. He cited the Capitol attack.

"It is abundantly clear that we live in a time of increased threats of violence against election officials and poll workers fueled by election disinformation and conspiracy theories and like a pile of dry kindling it only takes a spark to ignite real world violence," Littlewood wrote in an email.

Miami Herald: Judge who worked with GOP on redistricting is asked to withdraw from suit over new maps

Common Cause Florida, FairDistricts Now and five individual voters filed a motion late Tuesday asking 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Allen Winsor to recuse himself from the lawsuit the groups filed March 11, asking the federal court to set the new congressional districts.

Winsor, who was appointed to the federal bench by former President Donald Trump, is one of three judges named by Chief Judge William Pryor to a panel to handle the case. Also on the panel is U.S. District Judge M. Casey Rodgers, a George W. Bush...

Courthouse News Service: DeSantis rejects GOP-drawn Florida redistricting map

“At the heart of the map that the governor is pushing, is to dismantle a district that has given Black communities in northern Florida the opportunity to elect a candidate of their choice. The governor’s actions are an effort to bully the Legislature or the courts into adopting a map that takes away people’s voting rights and is unconstitutional,” said Kathay Feng, the national redistricting director for Common Cause, a nonpartisan pro-democracy watchdog group.

“Florida voters overwhelmingly adopted some of the...

HuffPost: Clarence Thomas Has Recused Himself From Cases Involving His Son — But Not His Wife

In 2009, Ginni Thomas founded a “tea party” nonprofit called Liberty Central to help defeat President Barack Obama’s signature legislative accomplishment, the Affordable Care Act. She raised $550,000 from undisclosed donors to fund it. This prompted the nonprofit Common Cause to call on Clarence Thomas to recuse himself from the Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission case challenging limits on corporate political spending. He did not.

Further investigation by Common Cause revealed that Clarence Thomas had failed to...

Cincinnati Enquirer/Columbus Dispatch: GOP OKs Ohio legislature maps tweaked from rejected ones, Democrats say process ‘hijacked’

Advocates for redistricting reform already have their sights set on a better process, possibly an independent commission such as ones used in other states. Catherine Turcer, executive director of Common Cause Ohio, said they would not rush anything to the ballot, but something needed to change. 

"They're drunk on power," Turcer said. "They need to be removed from the decision-making process."

Roll Call: Biden budget seeks $10 billion over decade to improve elections, make ballots postage-free

Sylvia Albert, director of voting and elections at Common Cause, an independent citizens' lobbying group, said that much money would be “transformative” for states holding elections.  ...

Albert said states often save the grant money they receive from the federal government for emergencies or for other unexpected reasons. 

“Officials don't have confidence that more money will be coming. They don’t feel free to use it in a way that could expand access,” Albert said, praising Biden's call for sustained...

The Guardian: How gerrymandering allows a purple state to promote Trump’s big lie

Getting people to look beyond congressional gerrymandering and at distortions for state legislative districts can be a challenge, said Suzanne Almedia, redistricting and representation counsel at Common Cause, a government watchdog group.

“Particularly, given the polarized nature of the US Congress, it’s a lot more straightforward to tell a story of Democrats versus Republicans on the national level than it is to think through the nuances of what happens on the state level,” she said. The policies that most directly affect...

Salon: “Throwback to Jim Crow”: New Texas voting law means Black voters’ ballots get tossed

"Texas was already the hardest state to vote in before Republicans passed these laws that made it even harder," said Anthony Gutierrez, executive director of Common Cause Texas, in a statement to Salon. "What we're seeing today is a small preview of what we can expect to see at a far wider scale in November unless the federal government finally takes real action to intervene."

Gutierrez said the Texas secretary of state's office was repeatedly told about the potential for these problems when the voting-restriction bill was...

Heather Ferguson, a co-signor of the letter and executive director of Common Cause New Mexico, said that Ivey-Soto referred to her and a female colleague by the nickname “Lips and Hips” in 2016.

“We walked into a meeting with him,” Ferguson said. “He said, ‘Here comes Lips and Hips.’”

Ferguson said she told Ivey-Soto the nickname was sexist and degrading, and that he repeated it later. 

She described a “toxic culture” at the Legislature, praised Anaya’s courage for filing a...

Raleigh News & Observer: Is gerrymandering to blame for more extremism in US politics?

“The winner is chosen in the primary and the primary draws, for lack of a better way of saying it, the most extreme and emotional voters,” said Bob Phillips, who leads the redistricting reform group Common Cause NC.

He said he’s heard state legislators on both sides of the aisle complain that their party’s leaders instruct them not to even mingle with the other side when they’re in Raleigh, let alone vote with them.

“We’ve seen it in Raleigh and seen it in Washington,” he said. “Folks that come...
