An expansion of a law signed by former President Barack Obama in 2010, for the first time it makes acts of animal cruelty a federal crime with a prison sentence of up to seven years. The U.S. Supreme Court temporarily blocked a court ruling that requires Trumps accounting firm Mazars USA to turn over eight years worth of his personal and business tax returns to the House Oversight and Reform Committee. Federal Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson ruled that former White House counsel Donald McGahn must comply with a congressional subpoena and testify to House impeachment investigators about President Donald Trumps attempted obstruction of Robert S. Mueller IIIs special inquiry into Russian interference in the 2016 election. Jackson called Trumps claim that senior presidential aides are immune from complying with federal subpoenas a fiction. Tuesday, Nov. 26 Jackson granted a temporary pause requested by the Department of Justice on her ruling that McGhan must comply with a federal subpoena. The House Oversight and Reform Committee filed a lawsuit against Attorney General William Barr and Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross to seek information on whether the Trump administrations failed efforts to add a citizenship question to the 2020 census was motivated by political strategy or its stated goal of enforcing the Voting Rights Act. Wednesday, Nov. 27 The New York Times reported on the Federal Emergency Management Agencys stalling relief efforts in Puerto Rico after the back-to-back devastation of Hurricanes Maria and Irma two years ago. It highlighted the disparity between U.S. territories in the Caribbean, where fewer than 500 long-term relief projects out of over 10,000 requested have been funded, and states on the mainland, where nearly 8,000 such projects have been funded between Texas and Florida in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey. Thursday, Nov. 28 On an unannounced Thanksgiving trip to visit American troops in Afghanistan, Trump said he reopened peace negotiations with the Taliban, about three months after a rushed previous attempt at talks fell through. The New York Times reported on the federal governments broken Public Service Loan Forgiveness program. Created in 2007, the program was intended to forgive student loans if students worked low paying but vital jobs after graduation. Less than 1% of applicants received any relief and about 80,000 professionals have been denied relief through bureaucratic snafus, confusion over complex rules or just poor management. Friday, Nov. 29 House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler wrote a letter to Trump asking if he plans to mount a public defense during the committees public impeachment inquiry, setting a deadline of next Friday. Delmer Joel Ramirez Palma, a construction worker serving as a witness in a federal safety investigation of the collapse of an 18-story Hard Rock Hotel in New Orleans that killed three of his coworkers on Oct. 12, was deported to Honduras. Palma raised multiple concerns about the construction to his superiors and became a plaintiff in a lawsuit against the project developers and their construction firms. ICE arrested Palma on Oct. 14 and claims no connection between the deportation and his role in the lawsuit. Saturday, Nov. 30 The Urban Institute, a Washington D.C. think-tank, released an analysis of the Trump administrations proposed rule changes to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program that shows the changes would result in loss of benefits for millions, including 3.7 million people losing eligibility for food stamps, 2.2 million households getting their monthly assistance cut by $127 and about a million students losing access to free or discounted lunches. Sunday, Dec. 1 Trumps lawyers responded to Nadler by saying Trump and his lawyers would not participate in the first public impeachment hearing on Wednesday. We cannot fairly be expected to participate in a hearing while the witnesses are yet to be named and while it remains unclear whether the Judiciary Committee will afford the president a fair process through additional hearings, wrote White House counsel Pat A. Cipollone. Trump and his lawyers did not rule out participation in later hearings. !
