Attached is the revised hearing memo. I highlighted the portion added about “last mile” service agreements. Important to note that Claire McCaskill (D-MO) was incredibly harsh on the USPS and their “last mile” service agreements. I also added a comment regarding this issue in Claire McCaskill’s portion of the memo. I have also attached the link to the hearing, Claire McCaskill’s rant about “last mile” begins at 01.56.57, if you want to review that considering she was the brunt of “last mile” references.…
Experienced lobbyists are people whose business is attempting to influence legislation on behalf of a team or person who hires them. Maurice Aguirre Texas: Individuals and non-profit establishments can also lobby such as an act of volunteering or maybe as a small part of their normal duty (for example, a Chief Executive Officer business meeting with a representative about a project relevant to his/her company, or an activist meeting with his or her legislator in an unpaid capacity).…

Specialized lobbyists are people whose business is intending to influence legislation on behalf of an organization or person who hires them. Maurice Aguirre Texas: Individuals and non-profit associations can also lobby as an act of volunteering and also as a limited part of their regular duty (for example, a Chief Executive Officer business meeting with a negotiator about a project valuable to his or her company, or an activist meeting with his/her legislator in an unpaid capacity).…
Just like a salesclerk advertises its products in the market to benefit their business, similarly a Lobbyist manages to influence the government officials to pass such laws that are beneficial for their group. The main job duty of a lobbyist is to communicate and carefully discuss the laws written by them with the government officials. The legislators cannot ignore the lobbyists because they donate a ton of money in their campaigns, and if they go against them, the lobbyists can invest their money into the opposing party and/or can destroy their party’s reputation by spending their money in the advertisement which may be against their party and may result in losing their seat in the next election. Mostly, the lobbyists represent bigger business organizations, such as the oil industry, the beverage industry and the insurance companies as well. However, they not only represent big companies, they also represent smaller companies such as environmental, social, education and labor causes; mainly the things that requires more public interest.…

Homeboy Industries is a great program that gives ex-gang members a second chance. Homeboy Industries gives former gang every opportunity possible to ensure their success. This type of intervention offers jobs, job training, tattoo removal service, and therapeutic counseling. Homeboy industries addresses many issues that these individuals face and ensures its success through use of therapy and job skills. I defiantly think this program should be implemented in the juvenile justice program. A program like Homeboy Industries would offer Juveniles marketable job skills and training, as well as a way to potentially generate income. Therapy and drug counseling services would also play a major role, since many juveniles are in desperate need of some…

1. If Home Depot was correct in that it was not discriminating, but simply filling positions consistent with those who applied for them (and very few women were applying for customer service positions), given your reading of this chapter, was the firm guilty of discrimination?…
I notice that the Set & Prop Designer becomes self-centered when it’s not involving important personnel e.g. Director or Production manager. For one of the plays where it involves three urns, the Set & Prop Designer initially wanted one of us to hide behind the urn for the entire show so that when it ends, we can assist with removing the lids and helping the cast to shift the props out. However, she did not realize that because of the lighting effects, shadows could be seen and therefore the idea is not feasible. She discussed with the lighting designer to see if he can make any compromises but since it concerns the aesthetics of the show, there was no way that the lighting designer can adjust the lighting just to fit her…
