— A Low-Tech Guide to Becoming More Politically Active – BRIAN X. CHEN (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents do NOT want you to “stay educated.” They want you to rely on them and only on them for all information.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/08/technology/personaltech/a-low-tech-guide-to-becoming-more-politically-active.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Stay Educated The first challenge to getting more politically active is filtering out the torrent of political news to understand what you should care about. One high-level approach is to read the executive orders posted on the White House website. Beyond that, following your members of Congress is an important way to get deeper information, says Indivisible, an activism guide published by former congressional staff members. These are the people who introduce legislation, so keeping up with them is crucial if you want to be more politically active. After identifying your members of Congress, visit their websites and sign up to receive their newsletters and invitations to local events. You can create Google News alerts on certain lawmakers to keep up with their actions. Another approach is following the legislation you care about. Mr. Tauberer’s tool, GovTrack.us, lets you share your location, select an issue and view the bills that have been introduced. For example, Senator Dianne Feinstein of California introduced a bill to nullify the effect of the executive order on immigration. The site says there is a 7 percent chance of the bill being enacted. You could then contact Ms. Feinstein’s office to say you support or oppose her bill.)
— Federal Workers Get Guidance for Discussing the Politics of Trump – CHARLIE SAVAGE and JONATHAN WEISMAN (DIERSEN: If I was still working for GAO, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates would have killed me by now figuratively if not literally. They would blame me for Trump’s election just like anti-Trumps blame me for Trump’s election in my precinct, in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/09/us/politics/donald-trump-administration.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With the president already running for re-election, federal workers get guidance on office politics The day President Trump took the oath of office, he filed paperwork to declare his candidacy for re-election, not so much because he was overeager but because money was still flowing into his campaign coffers, and any funds raised over $5,000 in 2017 would have had to be returned unless Mr. Trump registered as a candidate. And we know the president doesn’t like refunds. So what’s a federal employee to do with a boss who was technically running for office the day he stepped into the Oval Office? The Office of Special Counsel has answers. It has told federal employees that they may not express a view about whether Mr. Trump should be re-elected or defeated in 2020 while on duty or in the workplace, but it assured them that they were otherwise free to express support or disapproval about Mr. Trump and his policies. A new guidance document (https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3457194-2017-Hatch-Act-Trump-Guidance.html) was issued on Tuesday after the office said that it had received numerous inquiries about the impact of Mr. Trump’s filing for re-election. In contrast, former President Barack Obama filed such paperwork more than two years after his inauguration. The office — an independent agency that watchdogs civil-service protections — said that with the exception of expressly advocating Mr. Trump’s success or failure in the 2020 election, federal employees were still pretty free. “Because the 2020 election is still more than three years away, at this time not all expressions of support or opposition to President Trump constitute political activity for purposes of the Hatch Act,” which prohibits federal employees from politicking, it said. The office also developed a new answer to its list of frequently asked question (https://osc.gov/Pages/HatchAct-FAQs.aspx) that spells out with greater detail the scope and limits of federal employees’ right to express their views while they are at work or on duty. The new answer distinguished between expressing a view about current events, policy issues and matters of public interest — which federal employees are always free to do — and political activity, meaning advocating the success or failure of a particular political candidate or party.)
— TRAGIC: HARDCOPY ARTICLE TITLE: Almost Half of Young Adults Get Rent Help From Parents – Quoctrung Bui (DIERSEN: Did your parents help pay your rent after you graduated from college? My parents did not. My father died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 years old. I graduated from NIU in 1970 when I was 21 years old. After I graduated, I lived with my mother and brother in Crete and helped pay the bills until September of 1972 when I bought a new town home in University Park. When I bought the town home, I worked as a GS-9 (currently $54,864) IRS Revenue Officer in Harvey and I worked part-time at the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights.)
