About Carissa Johnson:

Carissa Johnson is addicted to playing rock and roll. The kind of sweaty, turbulent, in-your-face, post punk rock that makes uptight people squeamish and uncomfortable. Hailing from Boston MA, rock artist Carissa Johnson has proven to leave her mark and she is just getting started. With a debut full-length album winning “Album of the Year” by the Limelight Music Awards and a nomination for “Best Punk Act” by the Worcester Music Awards in 2016, Johnson continues to push ahead, writing and producing enthusiastically honest songs. With influences evident in her songs, her sound pays tribute to seventies punk and new wave, yet remains authentically her own. Johnson is known for her straight-forward lyrics and her driving, four on the floor melodies, her “heartening anthemic rock” stands out among her contemporaries. In April of 2017 she won Boston's legendary 38th annual Rock and Roll Rumble. Determined to share her music with the world, she continues to book her own tours and play shows throughout the country – with or without a band, in support of her sophomore release, Only Roses (2016).

General Lori Robinson, Commander of the North American Aerospace Defense Command and U.S. Northern Command, provides the following statement in light of Friday's North Korean ICBM Launch

 

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. – North Korea’s launch on Friday of an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile was detected, closely tracked, and determined not to be a danger to North America.  However, this provocative launch served as yet another reminder of North Korea’s continued threat to the United States and our allies with their missile program.  As the Commander responsible for defending the homeland, I want to assure our citizens that USNORTHCOM remains unwavering in our confidence that we can fully defend the United States against this ballistic missile threat.  At NORAD and USNORTHCOM, we stand this watch each and every day

NORAD and USNORTHCOM, U.S. Strategic Command and U.S. Pacific Command remain vigilant in the face of these continued North Korean provocations. We are fully committed to working closely with our Republic of Korea and Japanese allies to maintain the security of their region and our great Nation.

Defense union applauds House for blocking outsourcing of civilian Defense jobs

AFGE thanks Rep. Cartwright for including amendment in DoD spending bill

WASHINGTON – Federal civilian employees who provide critical support to our nation’s military would be protected from having their jobs outsourced under an amendment to the Defense spending bill that won the support of the largest federal employee union.

“Tens of thousands of federal civil service employees, many of whom are veterans, provide critical support to our nation’s military every single day at depots, arsenals, and defense installations across the country. They shouldn’t have to worry about losing their jobs or not being able to provide for their families,” American Federation of Government Employees National President J. David Cox Sr. said.

“I applaud Congressman Matt Cartwright of Pennsylvania for introducing this amendment and thank members of both parties who voted to add this language to the Defense appropriations bill.”

President Cox extended special thanks to amendment cosponsors Don Beyer of Virginia, Rob Bishop of Utah, Tom Cole of Oklahoma, Paul Cook of California, Dan Donovan of New York, Walter Jones of North Carolina, Derek Kilmer of Washington, Dave Loebsack of Iowa, John Ratcliffe of Texas, Austin Scott of Georgia, and Carol Shea-Porter of New Hampshire.

The amendment passed by a vote of 253-172 and was added to a spending package including the Department of Defense, Military Construction-Department of Veterans Affairs, Energy and Water, and Legislative Branch appropriations bills.

“Taxpayers benefit when the government’s work is performed by civil service employees, who are less costly and more accountable than private-sector workers. But the current privatization process is biased against federal workers, which is why Congress must retain the longstanding ban on contracting out federal jobs using the flawed A-76 outsourcing method,” Cox said.

“The Government Accountability Office and the Department of Defense’s Inspector General both have concluded that the A-76 process itself is deeply flawed, disruptive, and costly to agency missions. Using the A-76 process becomes even more problematic when the military is growing, as it is now, because when competitions are conducted for functions that are performed jointly by the military and civilians – which is common throughout DoD — the military end strength either must be reduced, which is impractical, or costs are increased and cuts must be made to other units otherwise uninvolved in the study.

“Until these systemic problems with the contracting out process are corrected, Congress should not even consider lifting the moratorium. To do otherwise would put federal employees in danger of losing their jobs, reward OMB for its failure to fix A-76, and reward agencies for their failures to inform Congress about the size, scope, and cost of their contractor workforces.”
