House Passes 37th Bill on ObamaCare

May 16, 2013

ObamaCare is falling apart. Two-thirds of the states have refused to set up the health insurance exchanges. Only 26 Governors support Medicaid expansion. And, as Phyllis noted in a recent column, even one of ObamaCare’s leading architects, Sen. Max Baucus (D-Montana), admits it is heading for a \”train wreck\” later this year.

ABC News reported that the IRS official in charge of tax-exempt organizations from 2009 to 2012, when tea party conservative groups were improperly targeted for scrutiny and harassment, is now in charge of the office responsible for enforcing ObamaCare! The IRS official, Sarah Hall Ingram, received over $100,000 in bonuses during the years 2009-2012 on top of her $170,000 annual salary.

This evening, in the House of Representatives, two Democrats voted with 227 Republicans and passed another full repeal of ObamaCare. This is the 37th bill to pass the U.S. House that repeals or rescinds funding for all or part of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Seven of these bills have been passed by the Senate and signed into law by the President. See that list here.

NJPP Report: Over 400,000 NJ Workers to Benefit by Raising Minimum Wage | cnbnews.net

press release May 16

Over 400,000 low-paid workers would benefit from a ballot measure that would raise New Jersey’s minimum wage by one dollar to $8.25 per hour and index the minimum wage to rise automatically with the cost of living, according to a new report released today by New Jersey Policy Perspective. The report finds that this wage increase would generate more than $174 million in new economic growth and support the creation of the equivalent of over 1,500 new full-time jobs as businesses expand to meet increased consumer demand.

NRA ILA : New Jersey Gun Control Package Advancing in Trenton

MAY 17, 2013

$\"\"$

The shameless plotting of gun control advocates in Trenton was caught on tape last week when a live microphone in the Senate Budget Committee was left on. Senate Majority Leader Loretta Weinberg was part of a conversation discussing gun confiscation. This recording has been posted on YouTube and has garnered national attention. Undaunted by the negative public reaction, New Jersey Senators continued to push forward with their anti-Second Amendment agenda.

The state Senate approved several gun control measures on Monday, May 13, and the New Jersey Assembly has placed them on their calendar for consideration this Monday, May 20 at 1:00 pm. The Assembly floor agenda is subject to change. The remaining bills passed in the Senate on May 13 may require action in Assembly committees before they can be taken up on the Assembly floor. As of today, the Assembly is currently scheduled to consider the following bills, among others:

St. Augustine beats Gloucester Catholic in matchup of baseball powers

– pressofAtlanticCity.com: High School Sports Blog

The game matched two perennial powers seeking to build momentum before the state tournament begins next week. The two schools scheduled Friday’s game after they both lost in the first round of the prestigious Joe Hartmann Diamond Classic last weekend.

Gloucester Catholic has won a New Jersey record 16 state titles, including three straight. The Rams (21-5) are the top seed in this year’s South Jersey Non-Public A bracket and No. 4 in The Press Elite 11. St. Augustine (16-6) is the No. 2 seed in South Jersey Non-Public A and No. 6 in The Elite 11.

Gloucester Catholic beat St. Augustine 12-4 in last year’s South Jersey Non-Public A final.

The game had a playoff atmosphere. Enthusiastic fans circled the field, located just off Route 130. Major League scouts sat behind the backstop measuring the speed of Oakley’s pitches with radar guns.

The Rams bench is loud. They get louder when a runner gets on base.

The game went to extra innings tied at two (high school games last seven innings).

As Enos prepared to leadoff the top of the eighth, he discussed his upcoming at-bat with Bylone. The coach wanted him to take a strike.
