Advocacy Manager Reagan Stone reviews two bills that threaten your voting rights: the Texas version of the SAVE Act and the “Use it or lose it” bills! Joined by Vote Riders' Vicente Martinez to discuss SB 16,  Texas' SAVE Act introduces new, incessant barriers to register to vote—requiring proof of citizenship to register. And from the National Coalition for Voting Rights, Robin Lederer and Dr. Andrea Barreiro discuss the “Use it or lose it bills,” or SB 396/HB 4253—as well as the soon to be published study on these bills' actions and their correlation to disproportionately disenfranchising marginalized Texans.Learn more about Vote Riders: https://www.voteriders.org/Learn more about the National Coalition for Voting Rights: https://www.ncvr.org/Thanks for listening!

On May 20 constitutional attorney and COS co-founder Michael Farris gave a tour de force performance in defense of Article V and the Convention of States movement.

Rita Peters and Andrew Lusch provide commentary. After the hearing stream,  Regional Director Catherine Zemanek shares behind-the-scenes information and previews what's next in the process.

It may be a phone-it-in Friday, but Richard gets serious talking about HB 455 and the fallout from it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

House Bill 2808 and House Bill 2165 seek to address the Oregon Water Resources Department (OWRD) budget shortfall of $875,000, but through different methods. Instead of choosing which bill offers the best path towards good governance, the legislature is saying, “both.” HB 2808 would increase the permitting and licensing fees related to wells. HB 2165 would provide an increase in funding to OWRD from the general fund of $830,415.Initially proposed as a one-or-the-other approach, the current recommendation from the committee is that both bills are needed, with no downsizing. The solution addressed by these bills is critical to the one-in-four Oregonians relying on domestic wells. But well owners, not taxpayers, should pay for increased employment costs at OWRD. Permit fees are a means of ensuring that the agency has a fiscal responsibility to process applications, versus relying on a one-time bailout from the general fund that has no statutory requirements for processing applications.When fees are required by law, project beneficiaries should pay the price, not taxpayers. Fee increases should be permitted only when agencies can show increasing employment costs, increasing demand for processors, and that no agency rulemaking has created obstacles to processing. In the case of OWRD, funding increases are needed, but this should come from landowners wanting a new well, not unsuspecting taxpayers who are already paying their own monthly water bills.

Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/editorialtpv El día de hoy hablaremos sobre el fin del movimiento puritano, de acuerdo capítulo 5, “Later Stuart Puritanism” por John Spurr del libro The Cambridge Companion to Puritanism. Ver aquí: https://www.cambridge.org/gb/universitypress/subjects/religion/church-history/cambridge-companion-puritanism?format=HB&isbn=9780521860888 . Páginas 89-106. El programa de hoy examina la evolución del puritanismo en la Inglaterra posterior a la Restauración de la monarquía de 1660. Traza la transición del puritanismo a la disidencia, destacando los diversos grupos englobados en la disidencia y sus experiencias de persecución y evolución de las alianzas políticas. El programa explora la dinámica interna de la disidencia, incluidos los debates teológicos y las estructuras organizativas, y examina la relación entre la disidencia y diversos grupos sociales y económicos. En última instancia, sostiene que, aunque el puritanismo se adaptó y cambió significativamente después de 1662, sus valores y prácticas fundamentales persistieron en diversas formas dentro del movimiento disidente.

Tuesday, Sheridan County School District #2 held a forum to talk about HB 172, the repeal of gun free zones.  What I found was a group of teachers who are grossly misinformed about firearms and the facts.

Over-promising and under-delivering has been the habit of Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF) for decades, with businesses and counties enduring financial hardships from ODF's inconsistent timber sales. House Bill 3103 with the -1 amendment seeks to address these concerns by requiring ODF to create five-year projections on Sustainable Harvest Levels (SHL) by December 31, 2026 and to offer one-fifth of this timber for sale annually.If there is a deficit in volume from the previous year, it will be added to the volume of the following year. The proposal also accounts for exceptions due to changing forest dynamics like wildfire, disease, and pests. HB 3103 also grants standing for those receiving funds from state timber sales to sue ODF if the SHLs are not published or met.In the 1940s, counties placed thousands of acres of forest land in a public trust with the state of Oregon. Millions of dollars were expected to be generated from this arrangement. But in recent decades, ODF has consistently failed at meeting sale projections.In a state with some of the most stringent timber harvest regulations worldwide, unpredictable harvest levels will cause end-users to import timber from less regulated regions. Oregon timber is harvested responsibly, but the only way to ensure that Oregon's environmental priorities are impactful is by creating a consistent supply of Oregon timber products.

Host Greg Williams and co-host, Addia Wuchner, are joined by KY Senator Shelley Funke Frommeyer and former State Representative, Melinda Prunty to discuss the ceremonial signing of HB 90 and the positive impact for mothers and babies! Share. Make it a great day in the Love & Lordship of Christ (Mark 12:29-31)!

Paul L. Singer, Beth Bolen Chun, Abigail Stempson, Andrea deLorimier Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier sued Snap, Inc., the operator of the social media platform Snapchat, this week for violations of Florida's HB 3 (§§ 501.1736–.1738, Fla. Stat. (2024)) and the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act (FDUTPA). The complaint alleges that Snapchat is a covered social media company under HB 3 because the app features allegedly addictive features that unfairly harm its users.

Will Estrada, Senior Counsel at HSLDA, shares his journey as a homeschool graduate and his ongoing work defending homeschool freedom nationwide. He and HSLDA President Jim Mason discuss recent legislative developments—celebrating a victory in Wyoming, where the annual letter of intent requirement for homeschoolers was repealed, while raising concerns about a proposed bill in Illinois (HB 2827) that would impose burdensome regulations and even criminal penalties for noncompliance. In these unprecedented times, homeschool families and state organizations are uniting to make their voices heard at state capitols across the country. Please note that this interview was recorded on April 16th, 2025. “We were not going to even try and fight HB 2827 in the [Illinois State] House. [We thought], ‘It's going to pass the House, let's focus on the Senate where we've got a better shot.' I was talking to an Illinois Senate Staffer the other day and he was telling me it's amazing that the bill is struggling so much in the House. I have seen so many people who have risen up to fight this bill. It's a powerful reminder that as we read in Ephesians 6, that we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities. And so, take on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all to stand. And I love that here at HSLDA, we get to pray together, to pray for homeschool parents in Illinois, Virginia, Wyoming, and other states, because it really is a reminder that what we do matters in eternity”—Will Estrada

We're excited to launch a brand-new series on the IASP Advocacy Podcast featuring members of our Executive Board! Over the next three weeks, we'll be spotlighting school leaders from across Indiana — each offering their unique perspective on key education legislation from the 2025 General Assembly session. This week's guest is Andrew Allen, Principal of Batesville High School and IASP President-Elect. Andy brings a thoughtful and experienced voice to the conversation as we dive into three impactful bills: HB 1064 – Student Transfers: Exploring how the bill may shift local control and enrollment dynamics. HB 1498 – Accountability: Unpacking new provisions around data, assessment, and what they mean for schools. HB 1001 – Teacher Appreciation Grants: Discussing changes to how these funds are distributed and recognized.  Whether you're a principal, administrator, or education advocate, this series is designed to keep you informed and connected to the policy decisions shaping our schools.  

GDP Script/ Top Stories for May 1st Publish Date: May 1st From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, May 1st and Happy birthday to Scott Carpenter ***05.01.25 - BIRTHDAY – SCOTT CARPENTER*** I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Gwinnett police searching for suspect after woman found dead in Snellville area home Discovery High football team takes part in Family Promise bed races to help make a community impact Lilburn and Norcross homestead exemption bills awaiting decision from governor Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on diabetes All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Gwinnett police searching for suspect after woman found dead in Snellville area home Gwinnett County police are searching for a suspect after a woman was found dead in her Snellville home late Tuesday in what appears to be a domestic dispute. A juvenile called 911, reporting an argument between a man and woman. Officers arrived to find the woman deceased, while the suspect had fled on foot. The juveniles in the home were unharmed and unrelated to the victim or suspect. Police believe the incident was isolated, involving individuals who knew each other. Anyone with information is urged to contact detectives or Crime Stoppers for a potential cash reward. STORY 2: Discovery High football team takes part in Family Promise bed races to help make a community impact Discovery High’s football team, led by Coach Roy Groshek, is fostering a positive culture by engaging in community events ahead of spring practice starting May 1. The Titans participated in a pep rally at a local elementary school and the 14th annual Bed Race in Lawrenceville, benefiting Family Promise of Gwinnett, which raised $36,000 to combat homelessness. The team finished second in the youth division, with Principal Robert Maffeo steering their bed. Groshek emphasized the importance of community involvement and rewarding players who excel academically and athletically. Spring practice culminates in a scrimmage on May 15 at Seckinger. STORY 3: Lilburn and Norcross homestead exemption bills awaiting decision from governor Lilburn and Norcross residents await Gov. Brian Kemp’s decision on two bills, House Bill 761 and House Bill 772, which could lead to referendums this fall on new or increased homestead tax exemptions. HB 761 proposes a $5,000 exemption for Lilburn homeowners and $10,000 for those 65 and older, while HB 772 would codify Norcross’s escalating senior exemptions, raising the maximum from $45,000 to $90,000 for homeowners aged 65+. Separate school tax exemption bills for Gwinnett County are also under review, with a countywide referendum set for May 2026. These measures aim to provide tailored local tax relief amidst rising property valuations. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: STORY 4: National Day of Prayer Ceremony To Be Held Thursday at Lawrenceville Lawn The Gwinnett County National Day of Prayer is set for tonight at 6 p.m. at the Lawrenceville Lawn, featuring speakers like Lilburn Mayor Johnny Crist, Pastor David Brunson, Police Chaplain Michael Soop, and teacher John Leece. Attendees will join in prayers for government, religion, first responders, and education. The event will also include a performance by the Georgia Worship Choir. The Lawrenceville Lawn is located at 210 Luckie Street, Lawrenceville. STORY 5: Duluth police still on the lookout for runaway goat Duluth police are on the hunt for a runaway goat that’s been evading capture for over a week. Spotted in backyards and even running down Peachtree Industrial Boulevard, the elusive billy has outmaneuvered officers multiple times, earning comparisons to a "huffin' Houdini." Police suspect it might be the same goat recently loose in Suwanee but can’t confirm. Residents are urged to call Gwinnett County Animal Control at 770-339-3200 if they spot the goat, rather than attempting to catch it themselves.

Do you have an idea for a podcast episode?In this special edition of the Talking Pools Podcast, we're interrupting our regular Tuesday broadcast to bring you an urgent conversation about critical legislative threats facing Florida's pool industry. Pool Magazine's Editor-in-Chief Joe Trusty sits down with Dallas Deason, Chief Government Relations Officer for the Florida Swimming Pool Association (FSPA), to break down the serious legislative challenges that nearly slipped through unnoticed — and what the industry did to stop them.Joe and Dallas dive deep into two explosive topics:SB 712/HB 683 Amendment: A last-minute proposal that would have dangerously expanded the ability of general and building contractors to build wet deck areas around swimming pools, bypassing the licensed pool contractors entirely.HB 991: A sweeping and alarming bill aimed at dismantling the Construction Industry Licensing Board (CILB) and eliminating mandatory continuing education requirements, not only for pool contractors but across 32 professional categories in Florida.Dallas explains why these bills would have been catastrophic for both consumers and industry professionals, outlines how FSPA rapidly mobilized to defeat the SB 712/HB 683 amendment, and gives an insider look at the ongoing battle to stop HB 991 before it can cause lasting damage.Key Topics Discussed:Why the proposed wet deck amendment was a threat to pool safety and professional standardsHow FSPA mobilized industry professionals to advocate at the state CapitolThe critical role of the CILB and why its elimination would lead to a rise in poor workmanship and deregulation chaosThe vital importance of continuing education for contractors and inspectorsWhat pool professionals and consumers can do right now to help fight HB 991What happens next if HB 991 passes — and why the consequences could ripple far beyond the pool industryGuest:Dallas Deason, Chief Government Relations Officer, Florida Swimming Pool Association (FSPA)Host:Joe Trusty, Editor-in-Chief, Pool MagazineAction Steps for Listeners:Visit the Florida House of Representatives websiteFind and contact your legislators — urge them to vote NO on HB 991Stay informed and engaged with FSPA's legislative updatesRemember to Like, Share, Subscribe, and Follow Support the showThank you so much for listening!

The number of registered voters who choose not to be members of any political party is growing. In fact, in Oregon, the percentage of these voters is bigger than both registered Democrats and Republicans. But those who vote in the major party primaries are the ones that decide which candidates appear on the general election ballot that is open to all voters. While Oregon’s neighbors, Washington and California, have made changes to their primary systems to allow for more participation, Oregon voters have said "no" in the past to doing the same. Nonetheless, Rep. Mark Gamba, D-Milwaukie, is among the sponsors of HB 3166, which would scrap the closed primary system that only allows party members to vote. Gamba joins us to discuss how to best enfranchise non-affiliated voters (NAVs), along with attorney and political consultant Julie Parrish, who served four terms as Republican representative in the Oregon House.
