How does the Stimulus Bill help the private sector?Chuck Boyer
A close examination of the stimulus bill shows that most of the money goes to the Federal and State governments. The Federal government already has a $2.7 trillion budget--and that hasn't "stimulated" the economy.

Voluntary organizations funded by public contributions have existed since the seventeenth century; however, didn’t become a unified sector until the 1970s (Renz, 2016, pg. 7). Because non-profits are diverse and complex it can be difficult to define and make inclusive to one definition. It can refer to charitable tax-exempt organizations, civic organizations that do not allow the deductibility of donations, and unincorporated organizations (Renz, 2016, pg. 3).
The non-profit sector covers a broad spectrum of public services such as hospitals, foundations, charities, religious institutions, and disaster relief organizations. Acknowledging the importance of non-profits is easy as these organizations attempt to address the issues of millions of people whether it be donations, programs, or services. Although tax exempt, government policies play a crucial role in the growing number of nonprofit organizations either indirectly by providing incentives or directly through grants and contracts (Renz, 2016, pg. 17). Non-profits don’t exist to make a profit but to use excess resources to meet needs that the government alone cannot fulfill. These organizations are not prohibited from earning revenue as long as the profit-making activities are related to the recognized program purpose.
The three main sectors private, non-profit, and the government share several similarities and key differences. One of the main differences is how their resources are handled. A non-profit organizations’ money is legally required to support its mission while private entities are able to distribute their resources to shareholders. Government agencies redirect their surplus resources back into government initiatives. Political shifts also highlight additional differences. As the political power changes so do the priorities in governmental agencies and the availability of public sector programs (The role of non-profits vs government and for profit sectors, 2015). Political shifts can garner more support and funding for non-profits but because the organizations secure funding from outside sources, programs can continue indefinitely as long as resources are available without any effect of a political change.
Non-profits are typically restricted with their work inside of the community as long as its business and mission related. Most restrictions imposed on non-profits are administered through state and federal government agencies through tax compliance, incorporation rules, and political participation.

One of the issues that concerns me most is the balancing of the budget. On both the federal and state level, this issue is significant to me -- as a young citizen, I have many more years in the work force ahead of me. The economic impact of debt resulting from unbalanced budgets will impact not only my life, but the lives of upcoming generations for years to come. Furthermore, our nation cannot continue to be a world leader if we constantly run up deficits. As an old proverb says, "the borrower is servant to the lender."
I believe that efforts to counteract the nation's debt must start with the states. If the states cannot balance their budgets when they are constitutionally obliged to do so, there is little chance that the federal government will balance their budget when they are not required to do so.
Fortunately, the actions of my own state legislature look promising. According to the current Massachusetts legislature's official website (found through the link in the lessons tab) , the budget was recently handled in the following manner:
After the proposed budget for the fiscal year 2016 was finalized by the governor on March 4th of this year, it was sent to the state house of representatives. The House Ways and Means Committee reviewed this proposal, amended it, and finalized their version of the budget on April 15th. The full House of Representatives then reviewed this version of the budget, and finalized it by May 4th. This final House version was sent to the Senate Ways and Means Committee (along with the governor's original proposal) to be considered and finalized. This being done by May 19th, the whole Senate then considered and finalized their version of the budget by May 22nd. The House and Senate versions were then submitted to a Conference Committee to iron out the differences between the two. The resulting version was finalized by July 7th, and sent back to both the House and Senate for approval. This final version was placed on the governor's desk for approval. On July 17th, Governor Charlie Baker extended his approval and signed the budget into effect. The 2016 budget was ultimately finalized July 30th, 2015.
As required by the State's Constitution, the approved budget was balanced and managed to resolve a $1.2 billion deficit. The progress made by the Massachusetts legislature in this area of policy can serve as an example for the federal government, especially given the similarities of state legislatures to Congress (Fischer 2015).

As nonprofits consider the problem of program sustainability and capacity building; volunteers are a part of the answer. Effective organizations seek to engage volunteers in a variety of roles and responsibilities. This presentation provides information organizations can use as they seek to implement a volunteer program. This information will be helpful for organizations with current programs as ongoing review and revision is a part of effective volunteer management.
Engaging volunteers effectively to create change requires organization and planning. This presentation provides tips and tools that can be used by organizations as they implement service projects whether a small, episodic project or a multi-event engaging hundreds of volunteers.
In today’s fast-paced environment, it’s hard to keep up with tactics to reach the newsroom desk or blogger computer screen. In this workshop, we will discuss traditional and new media outlets and how to develop relationships with the media to build awareness of your organization.
Effective advocacy not only includes working with elected officials, but also involves strategic interaction with the media and the public. This session is broken down into two sections. The first half of the training will focus on the tricks of the trade for effective media relations, including understanding the different types of media outlets, developing effective letters to the editor campaigns, and techniques for pitching local and statewide media to help gain increased coverage for your organization and its advocacy priorities. During the second half, the session presenters will talk about the use of social media and how to effectively use such mediums for advocacy with legislators, the media, and the general public.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
1. American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA)
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), otherwise known as the federal stimulus package,
authorized $787 billion of funds in “stimulus” money for the United States economy. The majority of the funds
available for nonprofit organizations are available through one of two funding streams: formula dollars (an
expansion of dollars available in currently-existing programs) and competitive grants. A list of available competitive
grants and corresponding grant application requirements and deadlines (where known) is available online at
www.michigan.gov/recovery. Frequently Asked Questions about the stimulus monies and answers to those
questions are available on MNA’s website at www.mnaonline.org.
Charitable Tax Deductions in President’s Budget Proposal
President Obama has indicated that he will issue a budget proposal that will include a stipulation to reduce the tax
incentives for charitable contributions by taxpayers earning more than $250,000 in order to raise the funds
necessary to implement health care reforms. Estimates on how much this decreased tax incentive would cost
nonprofits in charitable donations range from $1.63 billion to over $7 billion per year. While the potential of such a
drop in charitable giving is of concern to the nonprofit sector, at the same time, charitable organizations face
enormous challenges in finding resources to pay the rising costs of health care for the employees who are essential
to carrying out their work for communities. They also see firsthand the consequences to people coming to their
organizations for services who are unable to afford health care coverage.
State Budget Update
The state of Michigan continues to struggle under a deficit that is both structural and cyclical. At the end of April,
the state’s revenue experts estimated a deficit of $1.3 billion for the remainder of the fiscal year; projections into
next year are not looking much better. The Governor released an Executive Order on May 5, making a list of
recommendations to balance the state budget for the remainder of the year. One of the items currently being
debated at the State Capitol that would affect many nonprofit organizations is the proposed elimination of the
Department of History, Arts and Libraries (HAL). The Governor’s Budget Recommendation for FY 2009-2010 would
distribute HAL programs to six different state departments; a recently unveiled bipartisan package of bills would
close HAL and transfer its programs to the Department of State (Secretary of State).
Uniform Prudent Investment of Institutional Funds Act (UPMIFA)
SB 411 (Sen. Switalski), called the Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act (UPMIFA), is a
replacement of and modernization to the current Uniform Investment of Institutional Funds Act (UMIFA). Among
other items, the bill would remove the current requirement that organizations not spend down or accumulate
money in their endowment funds (the value of which is calculated according to quot;historic dollar valuequot;). Instead of
requiring that organizations hold the historic dollar value of their fund(s) steady and spend appreciation and
income, this bill recognizes that the current economic climate has changed the way institutional funds should be
handled for the long-term benefit of the organization holding those funds, and allows organizations to spend or
accumulate money in their endowment funds as long as such changes are handled quot;prudentlyquot; according to the
mission of the organization.
2. quot;No Reason Absentee Voting” Bills
HB 4367 (Rep. Stanley) passed the Michigan House of Representatives on April 30. The bill would implement quot;no
reason absentee voting,quot; meaning voters would not be required to provide a reason or justification for requesting
an absentee ballot. Additionally, registered voters could apply for and return absentee ballots to their clerks by
mail, in person, by fax, or by email.
Serve America Act
President Obama signed the Serve America Act into law on April 21, 2009. The Act will dramatically expand national
service opportunities to address America's most pressing challenges. The House and Senate both passed this bill
with an overwhelming bipartisan majority vote; the bill authorizes a massive expansion of national service
programs for Americans of all ages, but implementation is tied to the availability of funds. The President is expected
to release a detailed budget for Fiscal Year 2010 in May.
Public Good IRA Rollover Act (S 864) Introduced in U.S. Senate
Senators Dorgan (ND-D) and Snowe (ME-R) introduced the companion bill to HR 1250 that extends and expands the
availability of the IRA charitable giving incentive. It would extend the current IRA rollover permanently, remove the
current dollar limit on donations per year, and expand the types of organizations that may receive rollovers.
Michigan Nonprofit Caucus Launched in Michigan Legislature
The Michigan Nonprofit Caucus, officially launched in April 2009, is a bipartisan, bicameral forum through which
lawmakers can lead and collaborate on legislative and regulatory issues impacting charities and foundations in
Michigan. The caucus will focus on issues that globally impact the nonprofit sector, monitoring and taking a
leadership role on legislative issues that impact Michigan's nonprofit sector and serving as a resource for
information on the sector for their fellow legislative colleagues. Co-chairs of the caucus include Senator Hansen
Clarke (D-Detroit), Senator Mark Jansen (R-Gaines Township), Representative John Proos (R-St. Joseph) and
Representative Rashida Tlaib (D-Detroit).
Michigan’s Nonprofit Sector Employs 1 in 10 Workers
Michigan’s nonprofit sector generates $108 billion each year in economic activity according to the 2009 Economic
Benefits of Michigan’s Nonprofit Sector report, commissioned by the Council of Michigan Foundations, Michigan
Nonprofit Association and the Johnson Center at Grand Valley State University and compiled by Public Sector
Consultants. There has been a 14% increase in the total number of nonprofits organizations in Michigan since 2001,
and total employees of nonprofits have increased 2.6% since 2006. The full report, along with a database of the
results that is searchable by type of nonprofit and geographic region, is available online at www.mnaonline.org.
