CareerFuel's long-term plan includes operating a dedicated cable network. As part of our efforts, my team and I cold-called members of Congress and asked them to write letters to the CEOs of Comcast and Time Warner. Some did. Along the way, I met Jessi Calzado-Esponda in Congressman Bobby Rush's office while awaiting a meeting. What I learned from her was remarkable and today we are very proud to share her inspirational story.
An accidental escapee out of Cuba at age seven, Jessi was permanently separated from her parents and raised by her grandmother (also an immigrant) in Florida. Many years later, following a mantra of "do whatever it takes" Jessi showed up day after day for interviews with a member of Congress. Unexpectedly homeless during her quest for work, Jessi couch surfed and made good use of leftover food from Congressional meetings to survive.
Finally she was seen and got "her break", interning for two members of Congress and ultimately hired by one as a legislative aid.
Jessi's determination is a reminder that anything is possible.
Today we have 23.2 million people who are underemployed. Many face dire circumstances with imminent cuts to unemployment benefits. CareerFuel has done the work for you, bringing you the best resources available right now, if you are seeking employment or interested in starting a business. Inspiration from stories like that of Jessi's can help give you the "high-five" you need to keep trying.

Rep. Tom Marino’s (R-PA) press secretary was arrested on Friday for bringing a gun into the U.S. Capitol building. Ryan Shucard, press secretary for the congressman, allegedly brought a 9mm handgun and magazine into one of the House office buildings, reports Roll Call, but was promptly stopped by Capitol Police and detained. He is being charged with carrying a pistol without a license, a felony.
Shucard was placed on unpaid leave that “will last until we know more about the situation,” Marino’s chief of staff, Bill Tighe, told Roll Call. Another official tells the Washington Post that Shucard brought the gun by accident, not with intention. Still, it is not legal anywhere in the District of Columbia — Congress or otherwise — to carry a pistol without a license.
The arrest comes just two days after another member of Congress, however, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) is pushing to change gun laws in the District by denying any appropriations to city government to enforce its own gun laws. Because DC is only a semi-autonomous district and not a state, its laws are in the hands of members of Congress from other districts, like Massie, who sometimes seek to use it as a political playground.

Representative Don Young (R-AK)
George Noongwook, Chairman, Alaska Eskimo Whaling Commission
What Was Covered:
• The Alaskan Whaling Commission and a group of both Democrat and Republican Alaskan representatives briefed Members of Congress and their staff on the importance of subsistence whaling to the indigenous people of Alaska.
• Indigenous people harvest the gray whale and the bowhead whale, which is indispensable to their survival. The harvesting of whales, which is sanctioned by a quota set by the IWC, provides a large portion of the indigenous people's diet.
• Whaling for the indigenous people of Alaska also provides more than sustenance; it has spiritual and cultural significance that binds the people together.
• Whaling in rural Alaska provides food security for a community that has a subsistence lifestyle and a very high cost of living.
• Eskimo whaling experts have used science and research to understand species management, and whale species that are being harvested are also thriving.
• Communities have been working with experts to improve the tools used to harvest the whales, ensuring more humane hunting.

'Congressional Staffer' is featured as a movie character in the following productions:
Life Tracker (2013)
Actors: Jay Thomas (actor), Tyler Holtman (miscellaneous crew), Ron Canada (actor), Carol A. Compton (miscellaneous crew), Robert Sidney Mellette (actor), Joe McClean (writer), Joe McClean (director), Bianca Bezdek-Goodloe (miscellaneous crew), Sarju Patel (producer), Norma Maldonado (actress), Matt Dallas (actor), Robert T. Barrett (actor), Darren Kendrick (actor), Stevie Mack (actor), Geeta Malik (producer),
Plot: Dillon stumbles on a little known news story about a company called Life Tracker Limited, which claims it has discovered a way to predict biological events in a human's life by looking at their DNA. Everyone views the story as a modern day form of palm reading that will go nowhere, but Dillon keeps turning on his camera when he finds articles on the Internet or hears about it on the news. The story keeps getting bigger. People all over the world are paying tons of money to see if their DNA shows any trace of disease, or future children, or when they'll die. With little to no resources, Dillon is left to guerilla style street interviews and filming the reactions of his small group of friends. When Dillon, his best friend Scott, and Scott's girlfriend Bell all get their futures predicted their lives start to change... along with the world itself. Nothing is physically changed in any single person's day-to-day life, but the ideas that have been put in people's heads convince them to flip the world upside-down. That's when things start to get out of hand. From the intimate relationships in our every day lives, to the literal future of the human race, nothing will ever be the same after Life Tracker.

Plot: Buffalo newsman Evan Baxter is elected to Congress with the slogan, "Change the world." He lucks into a huge house in a new Virginia suburb. His Capitol office is also fantastic, but there's a catch: he's tapped by the powerful Congressman Long to co-sponsor a bill to allow development in national parks. In steps God, who appears to a disbelieving Evan and gently commands him to build an ark. Tools and wood arrive in Evan's yard, animal pairs follow, his beard and hair grow wildly, nomad's clothes and a staff appear. Long grows impatient, Evan starts building, his family leaves him, reporters gather, and drought grips D.C. Still, Evan believes. But will he change the world?

Who says it was deviant?::Shelly Runyon: I do. What I say the American people will believe. And do you know why? Because I will have a very big microphone in front of me.
President Jackson Evans: Who doesn't want a shortcut to greatness?
Shelly Runyon: Greatness is the orphan of urgency, Laine. Greatness only emerges when we need it most... in time of war or calamity. I can't ask somebody to be a Kennedy or a Lincoln. They were MEN created by their times. What I... What I can ask for... is the promise of greatness. And that, Madam Senator... you don't have.::Laine Hanson: Well, then... I just wouldn't be using sex as leverage... if I were you, Sheldon. Because, you know, there's one thing you don't want. It's a woman with her finger on the button who isn't getting laid.
Kermit Newman: The people of this nation can stomach quite a bit. But the one thing they can't stomach is the image of a vice president with a mouthful of cock.
[Trying to dig up dirt on Shelly Runyon]::Kermit Newman: I want something EMBARRASSING! Something sexual! Little boys, midgets, that sort of thing! Cows! I don't give a goddamn!
[Missing a bowling roll]::President Jackson Evans: Well, that's what I get for my Leftist tendencies.
Laine Hanson: Come on, Kermit. If we do that, we are no better than he is.::Kermit Newman: We are no better than he is!
Laine Hanson: Principles only mean something when you stick to them when its inconvenient.
President Jackson Evans: You're the future of the Democratic party. And you always will be.
The American President (1995)
Actors: Martin Sheen (actor), Clement von Franckenstein (actor), David Paymer (actor), George Murdock (actor), Googy Gress (actor), Richard McGonagle (actor), Matthew James Gulbranson (actor), John Mahoney (actor), Beau Billingslea (actor), Michael Douglas (actor), Richard Dreyfuss (actor), Ron Canada (actor), Michael J. Fox (actor), Anne Haney (actress), Annette Bening (actress),
Plot: Andrew Shepherd is approaching the end of his first term as President of the United States. He's a widower with a young daughter and has proved to be popular with the public. His election seems assured. That is until he meets Sydney Ellen Wade, a paid political activist working for an environmental lobby group. He's immediately smitten with her and after several amusing attempts, they finally manage to go on a date (which happens to be a State dinner for the visiting President of France). His relationship with Wade opens the door for his prime political opponent, Senator Bob Rumson, to launch an attack on the President's character, something he could not do in the previous election as Shepherd's wife had only recently died.
Keywords: bouquet-of-roses, camp-david, chief-of-staff, christmas, cult-film, dating, diplomatic-reception, environmental-issues, environmentalist, flag-burningGenres: Comedy, Drama, Romance,
Taglines: Why can't the most powerful man in the world have the one thing he wants most?
Quotes:
President Andrew Shepherd: I want to buy her some flowers. That's what men do when they break a date.::Robin McCall: That's not what men do. I know no men who do that.[Looking through Andrew Shepherd's college transcript]::Sydney Ellen Wade: Oh, Andy, a C minus in Women's Studies.::President Andrew Shepherd: Yeah, well, that class wasn't about what I thought it was about.
[Ushering Sydney out of the White House after spending her first night there]::President Andrew Shepherd: I'm sorry about this. We'll do it better next time.::Sydney Ellen Wade: Well, I'm no expert but I think we did it pretty good this time.
Lewis Rothschild: Can I just state very clearly I can't be part of anything illegal.::A.J.: Good for you, Lewis.::Lewis Rothschild: Say what you want. It's always the guy in my job that ends up doing 18 months in Danbury minimum security prison.
Lewis Rothschild: Who're we calling, sir?::President Andrew Shepherd: I'm calling the Organization of the United Brotherhood of It's None of Your Damn Business, Lewis. I'll be with you in a second.
[ dancing at a state dinner]::Sydney Ellen Wade: I don't know how you do it.::President Andrew Shepherd: It's Arthur Murray. Six lessons.::Sydney Ellen Wade: That's not what I mean. Two hundred pairs of eyes are focused on you with two questions on their minds - who's this girl, and why is the President dancing with her?::President Andrew Shepherd: Well, first of all, the two hundred pairs of eyes aren't focused on me. They're focused on you. And the answers are Sydney Ellen Wade, and because she said yes.
President Andrew Shepherd: You're attracted to me, but the idea of physical intimacy is uncomfortable because you only know me as the President. But it's not always going to be that way, and the reason I know that is there was a moment last night when you were with ME, not the President. And I know what a big step that was for you. So, Sydney, I'm in no rush. Here's my plan. We're going to slow down, and when you're comfortable, that's when it's going to happen.::[Sydney emerges from the bathroom wearing nothing but one of his shirts]::President Andrew Shepherd: Perhaps I didn't properly explain the fundamentals of the slowdown plan.::Sydney Ellen Wade: [feeling the bed] No, you explained it great.::President Andrew Shepherd: Are you nervous?::Sydney Ellen Wade: No.::President Andrew Shepherd: Good. My nervousness exists on... several levels. Number one, and this is in no particular order, I haven't done this in a pretty long time. Number two, uh, any expectations that you might have, given the fact that I'm... you know...::Sydney Ellen Wade: [approaching seductively] The most powerful man in the world?::President Andrew Shepherd: Exactly, thank you. I think it's important you remember that's a political distinction that comes with the office. I mean, if, uh, Eisenhower were here instead of me, he'd be dead by now... and number three...::Sydney Ellen Wade: Andy...::[she kisses him]
[Right before their first kiss]::Sydney Ellen Wade: Do you think this is a good idea?::President Andrew Shepherd: Probably not.
Sydney Ellen Wade: Mr. President, you've got bigger problems than losing me. You just lost my vote.
A. J. MacInerney: The President doesn't answer to you, Lewis!::Lewis Rothschild: Oh, yes he does A.J. I'm a citizen, this is my President. And in this country it is not only permissible to question our leaders it's our responsibility!

Job Search Success Story: Congressional Staff Assistant Jessi Calzado-Esponda

As part of our efforts, my team and I cold-called members of Congress and asked them to write letters to the CEOs of Comcast and Time Warner. Some did. Along the way, I met Jessi Calzado-Esponda in Congressman Bobby Rush's office while awaiting a meeting.

Congressional Staffer Brings Gun Into Congress
Rep. Tom Marino’s (R-PA) press secretary was arrested on Friday for bringing a gun into the U.S. Capitol building. Ryan Shucard, press secretary for the congressman, allegedly brought a 9mm handgun and magazine into one of the House office buildings, reports Roll Call, but was promptly stopped by Capitol Police and detained. He is being charged with carrying a pistol without a license, a felony. Shucard was placed on unpaid leave that “will last until we know more about the situation,” Marino’s chief of staff, Bill Tighe, told Roll Call. Another official tells the Washington Post that Shucard brought the gun by accident, not with intention. Still, it is not legal anywhere in the District of Columbia — Congress or otherwise — to carry a pistol without a license. The arrest comes just two ... -

CareerFuel's long-term plan includes operating a dedicated cable network. As part of our efforts, my team and I cold-called members of Congress and asked them to write letters to the CEOs of Comcast and Time Warner. Some did. Along the way, I met Jessi Calzado-Esponda in Congressman Bobby Rush's office while awaiting a meeting. What I learned from her was remarkable and today we are very proud to share her inspirational story.
An accidental escapee out of Cuba at age seven, Jessi was permanently separated from her parents and raised by her grandmother (also an immigrant) in Florida. Many years later, following a mantra of "do whatever it takes" Jessi showed up day after day for interviews with a member of Congress. Unexpectedly homeless during her quest for work, Jessi couch surfed and made good use of leftover food from Congressional meetings to survive.
Finally she was seen and got "her break", interning for two members of Congress and ultimately hired by one as a legislative aid.
Jessi's determination is a reminder that anything is possible.
Today we have 23.2 million people who are underemployed. Many face dire circumstances with imminent cuts to unemployment benefits. CareerFuel has done the work for you, bringing you the best resources available right now, if you are seeking employment or interested in starting a business. Inspiration from stories like that of Jessi's can help give you the "high-five" you need to keep trying.

Rep. Tom Marino’s (R-PA) press secretary was arrested on Friday for bringing a gun into the U.S. Capitol building. Ryan Shucard, press secretary for the congressman, allegedly brought a 9mm handgun and magazine into one of the House office buildings, reports Roll Call, but was promptly stopped by Capitol Police and detained. He is being charged with carrying a pistol without a license, a felony.
Shucard was placed on unpaid leave that “will last until we know more about the situation,” Marino’s chief of staff, Bill Tighe, told Roll Call. Another official tells the Washington Post that Shucard brought the gun by accident, not with intention. Still, it is not legal anywhere in the District of Columbia — Congress or otherwise — to carry a pistol without a license.
The arrest comes just two days after another member of Congress, however, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) is pushing to change gun laws in the District by denying any appropriations to city government to enforce its own gun laws. Because DC is only a semi-autonomous district and not a state, its laws are in the hands of members of Congress from other districts, like Massie, who sometimes seek to use it as a political playground.

• Eskimo whaling experts have used science and research to understand species management, and whale species that are being harvested are also thriving.
• Communities have been working with experts to improve the tools used to harvest the whales, ensuring more humane hunting.
