Lawmakers kick off 2020 legislative session

(from 11/22/19 post )
Organization Day, which took place Tuesday, Nov. 19, was the ceremonial start of the 2020 legislative session.This day marks the annual first roll call of all state lawmakers, and it provides each Senate and House of Representatives caucus with the opportunity to gather before session officially reconvenes in January.
The  Indiana General Assembly is set up as a part-time citizen legislature. This means lawmakers meet for only a portion of the year so that everyday citizens can serve as representatives or senators while still being able to live and work in the communities they serve. Indiana alternates between “long” and “short” sessions. Even-numbered years are “short” sessions while odd-numbered years are “long” sessions. The extra time is needed during long sessions as lawmakers draft the two-year state budget.Last year, the General Assembly finalized the new state budget, which included a $763 million increase in K-12 funding.This year is a short session, and by state law, will conclude on or before March 14.
In the upcoming months, the lawmakers will examine a wide variety of legislative proposals such as enhancing our state’s education system, increasing health care cost transparency, and reviewing smoking and vaping regulations.To stay up to date on what’s happening at the Statehouse, visit iga.in.gov. On this website, you can stream committee hearings and session meetings as well as view event calendars, vote tallies, meeting agendas and proposed legislation.

 

Wishing you a blessed Thanksgiving

Each year on Thanksgiving, we count the many blessings in our lives. As we prepare for next week’s turkey feast and quality time with loved ones, let us also remember those less fortunate and consider how we can help others.
There are numerous ways to give back during the holiday season, especially on and after the Thanksgiving holiday. From putting together food baskets to volunteering at your local soup kitchen, there is no shortage of opportunities to lend a helping hand. The United Way and the Salvation Army are great organizations hosting and facilitating a wide variety of ways and events for Hoosiers to donate their time and resources year round. Feeding America is another organization connecting Hoosiers with local food banks. For more ideas on how you and your family can give back this holiday season, click here.
Be it your time or a monetary donation, your contribution – no matter how small – can make a big difference in the life of a fellow Hoosier in need. Please consider how you can help others this holiday and beyond. We wish you the happiest of Thanksgivings, and may God bless you and your family.

Dr. Bucshon’s Maternal Health Legislation Passes Committee, Readied For a Vote on the House Floor
(from  11/19/19  Press Release )
Congressman Larry Bucshon, M.D. (IN-08) released the following statement after the House Energy and Commerce Committee unanimously passed the Maternal Health Quality Improvement Act (H.R. 4995), bipartisan legislation he joined Congressman Eliot Engel (NY-16) in introducing, out of committee. H.R. 4995 contains the text of bipartisan legislation, the Excellence in Maternal Health Act (H.R. 4215), that Dr. Bucshon introduced with fellow Hoosier Congressman Andre Carson (IN-07)
As a physician and a father of four, I understand the importance of ensuring the health of mothers during pregnancy and after the delivery of newborns,” said Dr. Bucshon. “This is a critical time for both the mother and the child as a new life is brought into the world. Indiana has an unacceptably high maternal mortality rate state-wide, ranking third in the country. We must do better in our approach across the entire nation, especially in rural America, to use best practices and provide necessary resources to stop preventable maternal mortality. I believe this bipartisan legislation will benefit patients and communities that are currently struggling by providing them with the support and training they so desperately need, and by helping ensure that women in rural areas can have access to maternal health providers.”

The first Presidential Proclamation of Thanksgiving:
President George Washington was the first US President to issue a proclamation calling upon all the “people of the United States” to observe “a day of public thanksgiving and prayer” on a specific date. In 1789, the first year of Washington’s presidency, the U.S. Congress approved a resolution requesting that President Washington “recommend to the people of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer”:
[New York, 3 October 1789]
By the President of the United States of America. a Proclamation.

Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor-and whereas both Houses of Congress have by their joint Committee requested me “to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.”
Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be-That we may then all unite in rendering unto him our sincere and humble thanks-for his kind care and protection of the People of this Country previous to their becoming a Nation-for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of his Providence which we experienced in the course and conclusion of the late war-for the great degree of tranquillity, union, and plenty, which we have since enjoyed-for the peaceable and rational manner, in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national One now lately instituted-for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed; and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general for all the great and various favors which he hath been pleased to confer upon us.
and also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech him to pardon our national and other transgressions-to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually-to render our national government a blessing to all the people, by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed-to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord-To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the encrease of science among them and us-and generally to grant unto all Mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best.
Given under my hand at the City of New-York the third day of October in the year of our Lord 1789.

CONSUMER ALERT: Hoosiers Should Be Cautious This Season While Holiday Shopping

0

Attorney General Curtis Hill is warning Hoosiers to be alert and aware while holiday shopping. Scams and theft around the holidays, including on Black Friday (Nov. 29) and Cyber Monday (Dec. 2), are more prevalent than ever.

“During the holidays, we all look forward to celebrating such blessings as love, joy and peace,” Attorney General Hill said. “Unfortunately, though, there are always schemers among us trying to find ways to take advantage of others and rob them of their hard-earned resources. Hoosiers must be cautious this shopping season when making purchases big or small.”

Attorney General Hill offered the following tips:

  • When you go shopping at brick-and-mortar stores, conceal your purchases in the trunk of your vehicle rather than leaving them in plain sight through the windows.
  • Secure your home deliveries. Beware of “porch pirates.” If you have packages arriving at your home and are not going to be there to receive them, make sure you have a place where they can be hidden from view on your porch. Or see if you can have the packages delivered to a secure location where you can pick them up when you are able. Consider teaming up with trusted neighbors to keep watch on one another’s properties. Security systems with cameras are always an option.
  • If a deal seems too good to be true, then it probably is. Be skeptical of deals and ask questions as needed. Be sure to read the fine print to make sure you are purchasing exactly what you want.
  • Closely check the emails that you receive for holiday deals to make sure that they are from the companies they claim to represent and are not from scammers or imposters. Proactively go to companies’ official websites yourself rather than just clicking on a link emailed to you.
  • To protect your personal information, don’t make online purchases while using public Wi-Fi.
  • Never make a hurried decision. Scam artists want to pressure you into a making a quick decision to buy from them. Slow down and check out the story for yourself first.
  • Make purchases using a credit card if you can. Always review your monthly statements for charges you don’t recognize. You can reverse charges or dispute a charge with your credit card company if necessary. It is more difficult to dispute charges on your debit card or obtain your cash back.
  • If you are purchasing gift cards, make sure you know the expiration date, as well as the terms that apply to the card.

Rachel Tam named to MVC Scholar-Athlete First Team

UE Heads To Cedar Falls For MVC Championship

 University of Evansville senior Rachel Tam earned a spot on the Missouri Valley Conference Scholar-Athlete First Team on Tuesday morning.

“Rachel has been a big asset for this program on and off the court for four years,” UE head coach Fernando Morales said.  “It is not only all of the points and scores on the floor, but also how she performs in the classroom and in the community.  I am so proud of her, it is well-deserved.”

Tam is an Exercise Science major who has posted a 3.747 GPA in her time at UE.  The honor marks her second time on the Scholar-Athlete First Team as she also earned the accolade in 2018.

As a senior, Tam finished the season ranked fourth in the MVC with 3.78 kills per set.  She had 39 kills against Tennessee Tech in September setting the Evansville program record.  Her total was second-most in a match in conference history and remains the second-highest tally of any NCAA Division I player in 2019

In the final weekend of the regular season, Tam moved to third in program history with a total of 1,452 kills.  She passed Lisa Sampson.

Tam and her teammates are set to travel to Cedar Falls, Iowa for the 2019 MVC Championship where they open up against Illinois State on Thursday evening at 7:30 p.m.

Fats, Oils and Grease – Down the Drain This Holiday Season

Fats, Oils and Grease – Down the Drain This Holiday Season

As families gather to celebrate Thanksgiving and the holiday season with traditional meals, the Evansville Water and Sewer Utility (EWSU) reminds everyone to put FOG – fats, oils and grease – from holiday cooking in the trash to avoid clogged drain. To underscore this message, EWSU is launching a public service campaign to raise awareness about the importance of keeping FOG from damaging pipes in homes and our city’s sewer system.

People often don’t realize that every drop of fat, oil or grease that goes down the drain will end up in the sewer line. As FOG collects in sewers it can form large clogs that can damage pipes and cause sewage to back up into homes, eventually reaching local streams and wetlands.

The EWSU FOG billboards and video public service announcements encourage everyone to “Cool It. Can It. Throw it Away. Put FOG in the trash, not the sink!” Fifteen billboards with the FOG holiday message are located on high traffic thoroughfare across the city. The FOG videos, featuring EWSU Director Allen Mounts, are available online offering simple tips on things you can do at home to eliminate FOG.

Otters Acquire And Sign DeJesus For 2020 Season

0

The Evansville Otters have acquired and signed infielder Andy DeJesus to a contract for the 2020 season.

DeJesus was acquired in a trade with the Gary Southshore Railcats of the American Association for a player to be named later.

The infielder is from Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic and brings experience with him to the Otters.

DeJesus has been with the Railcats since 2016 following his collegiate career with the Indiana State Sycamores of the Missouri Valley Conference.

“Andy is an experienced ball player that should compete for a starting job,” Otters manager Andy McCauley said. “His ability as a switch-hitter will give us flexibility in our lineup.”

“What excites me the most is to be given the chance to play baseball at a great competitive level in Evansville,” DeJesus said. “I’m excited to get the chance to show my abilities and skills, and to give it my all every day.”

DeJesus was also a member of the 2015 Prospect League championship team with the Terre Haute Rex, which was led by current Otters hitting coach Bobby Segal.

“A switch-hitting, middle infielder, Andy is extremely dedicated to furthering his future in the game,” Segal said.

Segal mentioned that DeJesus has gotten bigger, faster, and stronger physically since he last worked with him on the Terre Haute Rex.

“He is extremely focused and is not afraid to put the work in,” Segal said. “He will be an asset on both sides of the ball, as his athleticism allows him to play multiple positions on the field.”

In four seasons with Gary Southshore, led by former Frontier League and Evansville Otters manager Greg Tagert, DeJesus batted .260 with 101 runs scored, 29 doubles, seven triples, nine home runs, 96 RBIs, 33 stolen bases and 43 walks.

Defensively, DeJesus spent most of his playing time in the infield at second base, shortstop and third base.

“Offensively, he is an aggressive presence at the plate and will give competitive at-bats, but he remains a passionate individual who takes a lot of pride in his defense,” Segal said.

Collegiately, DeJesus played his first two seasons at Iowa Central before transferring to Indiana State.

With the Sycamores for his junior and senior seasons, DeJesus posted a .282 batting average with 63 runs, 32 extra-base hits, 36 RBIs, and a .971 fielding percentage.

“I consider myself a scrappy player, finding a way to get it done to end the game with a win,” DeJesus said. “I really enjoy doing the unexpected.”

Purple Aces volleyball announces 2019 signing class

Aces add four freshmen for 2020 season

University of Evansville head volleyball coach Fernando Morales has announced his first signing class as the head coach of the Purple Aces.  Morales and his staff have added four freshmen who have signed National Letters of Intent will join the team in 2020.

The class consists of Rachel Basinski (Evansville, Ind./Memorial), Elise Moeller (Rock Falls, Ill./Rock Falls), Emilee Scheumann (Fort Wayne, Ind./Bellmont) and Brooke Springer (Henderson, Ky./Henderson County).

Basinski makes the move just a few blocks from Memorial High School to the University of Evansville.  The 5-5 libero earned a spot on the 2019 SIAC First Team for her efforts, which included a total of 244 digs, which came out to three per set.  She added a total of 18 service aces.  Basinski led Memorial to the IHSAA 3A Sectionals and garnered Indiana High School Volleyball Coaches Association Academic All-State honors as a senior.

Coach Morales on Basinski: “Rachel Basinski is a local player that had a great senior season, taking Memorial to Semi-state.  She will help fill out the spot Gabi will leave, with her and Laura we are comfortable with the future at that position.”

Moeller is a 5-10 outside hitter from Rock Falls, Ill.  In October of this year, she was named the Sauk Valley Media Athlete of the Week.  Moeller averaged 7.5 kills and five digs while helping her team win the IHSSA 2A Regionals.

Coach Morales on Moeller: “Elise Moeller is an all-around player that will give up depth at the OH position.  We know that was one of our weaknesses this year – our depth in that position – so we are happy to have her.”

Scheumann is a Fort Wayne native who starred as an outside hitter at Bellmont High School.  Averaging 2.7 kills per set, the 5-10 Scheumann hit an efficient .373.  Her squad won the IHSSA 3A Semi-State Title.  Scheumann’s personal accolades include spots on the 2019 Indiana High School Volleyball Coaches Association 3A Northeast District Team and the Academic All-State Team.

Coach Morales on Scheumann: “Emilee Sheumann is a combination of power and control.  She can play the role of both scoring and passing OH.  She can help us cover the points we will lose when Rachel graduates while adding ball control as well.”

Springer is another native of the area, coming to UE from Henderson Country High School in Henderson, Ky.  A 6-2 middle blocker, Springer helped her team to its 5th consecutive KHSV 2nd Region Title.  Springer averaged 2.25 blocks per set and 3.34 kills on her way to 2019 KHSV 2nd Region Volleyball Team honors and KHSV 2nd Regional All-Tournament Team recognition.

Coach Morales on Springer: “Brooke Springer is a tall powerful middle that will bring us more offense.  With her we will have 3 young talented middle blockers.  We are excited about the future in that position.”
