We discussed the Campus Accountability and Safety Act (CASA-)S. 590 and H.R. 1310, the Safe Campus Act (H.R. 3403), and the Fair Campus Act (H.R. 3408). FIRE has not endorsed any of these bills. Instead we are explaining to Congress which provisions in each bill we like and which provisions we oppose. FIRE is advocating that any final legislation must include meaningful due process/ procedural protections, like the right to active assistance of counsel and the right to the disclosure of any exculpatory and inculpatory evidence known to a college. FIRE also met with Congressional staffers to discuss overly restrictive speech codes on college campuses and threats to academic freedom. No legislation is pending on those issues. | HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,SENATE | 0 | 0 | 2015-10-16T17:13:36.117000-04:00 | ||

The OLC Memo reaches the erroneous and dangerous conclusion that the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 (RFRA) provides a blanket override of a statutory non-discrimination provision.

Other members of the CCD Rights Task Force, as well as representatives from the National Council on Disability and Lead On were present. Representatives from the Domestic Policy Council, the US Department of Justice, and the Task Force presented. Members of the disability community spoke on a range of concerns, including lack of disability issues presented in the Task Force report. Participants discussed the need for the criminal justice system to be aware of the needs and concerns of the disability community, to treat victims, witnesses and those suspected of crime with respect; data collection regarding people with disabilities and police violence; as well as time spent in the prison system, and access to supports and services while in and transitioning out. United Spinal supports a Consortium for Citizens with Disabilities Rights Task Force letter sent to the United States Senate. The letter voiced concerns about the Helping Families in Mental Health Crisis Act (H.R. 2646). The letter pointed out that instead of addressing the dramatic gaps in community services, the bill would remove critical protections for individuals with psychiatric disabilities and promote involuntary treatment. Community Integration Act - United Spinal supports the concepts described in the Community Integration Act, supported by Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY), which ensures that people with disabilities receive home and community-based supports and services in the home setting of their choice.

Other members of the CCD Rights Task Force, as well as representatives from the National Council on Disability and Lead On were present. Representatives from the Domestic Policy Council, the US Department of Justice, and the Task Force presented. Members of the disability community spoke on a range of concerns, including lack of disability issues presented in the Task Force report. Participants discussed the need for the criminal justice system to be aware of the needs and concerns of the disability community, to treat victims, witnesses and those suspected of crime with respect; data collection regarding people with disabilities and police violence; as well as time spent in the prison system, and access to supports and services while in and transitioning out. United Spinal supports a Consortium for Citizens with Disabilities Rights Task Force letter sent to the United States Senate. The letter voiced concerns about the Helping Families in Mental Health Crisis Act (H.R. 2646). The letter pointed out that instead of addressing the dramatic gaps in community services, the bill would remove critical protections for individuals with psychiatric disabilities and promote involuntary treatment. Community Integration Act - United Spinal supports the concepts described in the Community Integration Act, supported by Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY), which ensures that people with disabilities receive home and community-based supports and services in the home setting of their choice. NDLA members are continuing the dialogue with each other to consider additional language tweaks. | Defense, Dept of (DOD),Education, Dept of,Federal Aviation Administration (FAA),Federal Communications Commission (FCC),Food & Drug Administration (FDA),Government Accountability Office (GAO),Health & Human Services, Dept of (HHS),HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,Natl Institutes of Health (NIH),SENATE,Transportation, Dept of (DOT),Veterans Affairs, Dept of (VA),White House Office | 75000 | 0 | 0 | 2015-10-21T16:30:47.340000-04:00 | |

The loophole stems from a 2007 memo issued by the Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) under then-President George W. Bush. According to that memo, faith-based groups do not have to comply with certain non-discrimination provisions even though they are funded by the government.
