Lisl Sen. Feinstein to FTC: Investigate Calif. gas prices
This post originally appeared in National Journal. Congress is captive to the calendar.Deadlines dictate action. There is no regular order, only regular disorder.Disorder is here to stay, and we d better start understanding where it came from, why it persists, and how to adjust to what will be an ever-tighter cycle of budget stalemates, flirtations with default, and high-stakes budget haggling.That means shedding clicheacute about national consensus or national mood as it relates to Congress. No one in Congress wins or loses reelection based on stanley cup national polls or generic-ballot comparisons. Especially not in October of an odd-numbered year. Democrats hold a 47 percent to 39 percent generic-ballot stanley romania advantage over Republicans in the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, for example. Just for some historical context, let s look at the same poll tak stanley water bottle en a month before House Democrats lost 63 seats to Republicans in 2010. That survey showed Democrats leading Republicans 46 percent to 44 percent in the generic ballot. What s more, the same poll in October 2009 gave Democrats a 46 percent to 38 percent generic lead over Republicans. Not only do things change in politics, national numbers obscure district-by-district truths and gloss over individual members calculations about legislative votes.At this stage of any congressional year, if members sift any national polling data, it s to find out how incumbents are viewed.

This story was written by Clint Waltman, Daily NebraskanFor some people, it seems as though issues dealing with life, race and gender only matter when talking about growing masses of cells in wombs.On Sept. 30, Nebraska Congressman Jeff Fortenberry, along with fellow Congressman Trent Franks of Arizona, introduced the Susan B. Anthony Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act of 2008.Masked by the Capitol Hill dram stanley cup a surrounding the economic bailout, the bill aims to prohibit discrimination against the unborn on the basis of sex or race, and for other purposes. The implications of such a measure are that federal law would recognize abortion as immoral, as well as recognize developing cells the unborn as l stanley cup ive children with gender and race.A purely symbolic gesture, Fortenberry s bill is yet another attempt to change the rhetoric of the issue of abortion until the opposition can achieve an outright ban.The act is red me stanley quencher at to his constituents before Election Day -- a measure which will not do much of anything if passed except change the dialogue surrounding abortion.The Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act is yet another attempt in a long line of Bush-era steps to prohibit a woman s right to choose, and Americans need to be vigilant of the continuing changes in political landscape which will be catastrophic for families.Not surprisingly, Fortenberry s bill comes hot off the heels of a new Department of Health and Human Services order by the Bush administration which would undermine women s

With reporting from Jennifer De PintoAn estimated 113 million people participated in the 2018 midterm elections, making this the first midterm in history to exceed over 100 million votes, with 49 percent of eligible voters participating in the election. By comparison, the 2014 midterm elections had one of the lowest turnouts in American history, with only 36.4 percent of eligible voters participating. In 2010, the first midterm of President Obama s tenure, 41 percent of voters participated.University of Florida associate professor Michael McDonald, who oversees the Election Project, told Red Blue on CBSN last week that the last time voter turnout reached 49 percent was in the 1966 midterm elections. In the last three decades, we ve had about 40 percent of those eligible to vote participating in midterm elections.

Grec Senator Has New Plan To Partition Iraq
The top Democrat and Republican on the House Armed Services Committee have called for a measured drawdown of National Guard troops at the U.S. Capitol, after Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin approved a request from the U.S. Capitol Police for guardsmen to remain at their post through May 23. We are deeply troubled by the current level of security around the United States Capitol, Armed Services Chair, Democrat Adam Smith, and ranking member, Republican Mike Rogers, said in statement Thursday. More than two months after the January 6 attack, the seat of our nation s democracy remains heavily protected by guardsmen and surrounded by a perimeter fence. The request for an extension came after the FBI and Department of Homeland Security issued a security bulletin that said violent extremists discussed plans to travel on or around March 4 to Washington, D.C., to take control of the U.S. Capitol and remove Democratic lawmakers.

It s been nearly one year since pro-Russian separatists began seizing territory in the Crimean region of Eastern Ukraine, enabling Russia to annex the peninsula and set off months of increasingly bloody clashes between pro-Russian forces and the Ukrainian government.

The researchers would do it by completely reengineering batches of cells so that they are light-sensitive.

He hopes that cells like these could ultimately be implanted into people, and exposed to light either through the skin or down a optic fibre to release proteins that would help treat diabetes. In twenty years, we could be treating a whole range of gene
