Before "At This Moment", Vera had a small career in movies and television including appearances in The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai, Late for Dinner, The Doors and soap opera Days of Our Lives. "At This Moment" propelled his movie career as he and the Beaters were featured prominently in the Bruce Willis movie Blind Date. He appeared in one episode of a TV series, Wiseguy and had several other roles on shows such as Baywatch, Boy Meets World, and a recurring role as Duke on Beverly Hills, 90210 as well as nine appearances on The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson. These roles would lead him into singing theme songs for TV shows, such as Empty Nest and The King of Queens, as well as voice acting on Cartoon Network cartoons. He served as band leader on Rick Dees' short-lived late-night talk show Into the Night on ABC in 1990. He also made a guest appearance in an episode of Double Rush in 1995.[6]

Incarcerated people earn pennies per hour for the work they do in prison, so Pell Grants, their primary source of need-based financial aid, had made it possible for students to access higher education. The 1994 crime bill stripped incarcerated students of Pell Grant eligibility, making a college education practically unattainable. In the following years, the number of prison education programs quickly shrank, from 772 programs in the early 1990s to only eight in 1997.

The bill's co-sponsors, House Science Committee chair Eddie Bernice Johnson of Texas and Representative Jenniffer Gonzalez-Colon of Puerto Rico, introduced H.R. 3196, the "Vera Rubin Survey Telescope Designation Act" on June 11. If it passes, the telescope will join Asteroid 5726 Rubin and Mars' Vera Rubin Ridge in bearing Rubin's name.

Fortunately, perhaps that message is getting through: Some of these bills have already died. The North Dakota motorist law has stalled in the face of national ridicule. And lawmakers defeated anti-protest bills in Virginia and Michigan, recognizing that they were unconstitutional.

During the 1973 legislative session, Representative Vera Katz introduced a bill that would have prohibited "discrimination in employment and certain real property transactions" based on "sexual orientation." This reprint of the bill came from Katz's office. The bill was co-sponsored by representatives Stephen Kafoury, Margaret U. Deleri, Ralph Groener, Lloyd C. Kinsey, William McCoy, Mary Wendy Roberts, Keith D. Skelton, Pat Whiting, and Howard Willits and senators Keith Burns, Edward N. Fadeley, Keith A. Burbridge, Ted Hallock, Betty Roberts, and Bill Stevenson. HB 2930, the first bill of its kind, did not pass and it was not until 2007 that Oregon enacted statewide anti-discrimination protection for homosexuals.

Governments repeatedly acted on this new push for anti-discrimination legislation, but citizens, who held widely disparate views about the relationship between civil rights and GLBT people, complicated the process. In December 1974, for example, the Portland City Council adopted a measure that ensured sexual orientation could not affect hiring policies in municipal agencies, and the council extended that protection to private employment throughout the city in 1991. On November 28, 1978, the Eugene City Council passed anti-discrimination legislation, but voters soon repealed it in a referendum. Governor Bob Straub appointed an advisory committee, the Task Force on Sexual Preference, which met for several months from fall 1976 through spring 1977. Portland Mayor Neil Goldschmidt made a proclamation that June 25, 1977, would be Gay Pride Day and, as governor in 1988, used an executive order to protect gay and lesbian employees throughout the state. Later that year, voters passed Ballot Measure 8, which overturned the governor's order.

Photocopy of a letter from Jack Davis and Bill McCarter, co-directors of North Texas Institute for Educators on the Visual Arts, to Dr. Vera Brooks-Ray. Describing the North Texas Institute for Educators on the Visual Arts fifth year as a staff development program for the school districts and museums, and as such Davis and McCarter established an advisory board several years to serve the community as well as receive their input. Davis and McCarter continue, sharing their appreciation for Janice Wiggins and other teachers of the Dallas ISD as major components of their Institute, as well as how fortunate they are to have Jan Muhlert, Director of the Amon Carter Museum chair their board. Davis and McCarter explain how much they would like to have Brooks-Ray serve as a board member for the Institute as well. At the end of the letter Davis and McCarter ask Brooks-Ray to take their request into consideration and that the board will meet at the Amon Carter December 1 at 4 pm. The letter mentions a fact sheet being given to Brooks-Ray about current board members, fact sheet not present with letter. Copied on the letter is Jan Muhlert.

Shifting away from the infrastructure created by the crime bill is not easy, especially because much of the American public equates public safety with policing, prosecutors, and prisons and jails. Polling shows that despite significant drops in the crime rate, the majority of the general public believes that crime has gotten worse.10 When the public feels tense about their safety, the solution they seek is often more police officers, more convictions, and longer sentences. When tensions diminish or crime rates decrease, mayors or governors proudly stand at a podium with law enforcement to boast of the achievement.

For federal lawmakers, there are virtually no barriers to passing a new criminal statute or increasing a criminal penalty. Congress is under no requirement to know whether a new statute is necessary; if the increased penalties would deter or prevent future crimes; or what population would be affected most by the new statute. Even traditional procedures for any legislation such as conducting hearings and voting a bill out of a committee have been bypassed when deemed necessary. The Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986, for instance, was another landmark tough-on-crime statute that infamously established the 100-to-1 powder versus crack cocaine sentencing disparity.27 That bill was introduced and signed into law within a span of just two months. According to the U.S. Sentencing Commission:

The sentencing provisions of the Act were initiated in August 1986, following the July 4th congressional recess during which public concern and media coverage of cocaine peaked as a result of the June 1986 death of NCAA basketball star Len Bias. Apparently because of the heightened concern, Congress dispensed with much of the deliberative legislative process, including committee hearings.28

Elected leaders should not add to the already cluttered criminal code. At the very least, they must substantially raise the bar that must be met to consider new crimes and criminal penalties. Current and future presidents should issue veto threats, making it clear that they will not sign any bill that increases criminal penalties or creates a new crime unless there is clear evidence that such a measure is not only necessary, but also that no other noncriminal justice solution could achieve the same result. Congress can pass a rule that requires a supermajority to pass any legislation that increases a criminal penalty or adds a new offense to the federal criminal code. Additionally, Congress should be required to produce data on who a new criminal statute or penalty would affect to ensure that it does not disproportionately criminalize people of color or other vulnerable communities. The lifelong consequences of incarceration and criminal records on people and their families are too harmful for lawmakers not to carefully consider whether a criminal statute is necessary.

Private prisons, however, are just a sliver of the for-profit criminal justice industry. Private industry has permeated virtually every sector of criminal justice operations. Every year, bail bondsmen collect $1.4 billion in nonrefundable fees from defendants and their families; private vendors earn $1.6 billion selling goods in prison commissaries; and telephone companies collect $1.3 billion in exorbitant fees for calls from prisoners to loved ones and lawyers.41 Furthermore, private industry is undermining efforts to reduce reliance on incarceration by monetizing the use of community supervision. A private electronic monitoring company in California, for example, collects more than $750 in monthly fees from every individual on supervision who wears a monitoring device.42 This model not only expands the scope of mass supervision, but it is also designed to keep people trapped in a cycle of justice involvement. Anyone who is unable to afford the steep costs of electronic monitoring can expect to end up in jail, regardless of the nature of their alleged offense. 17dc91bb1f
