In 2004, she became more involved in the Democratic Party, and one month before that year’s primary election, the party recruited her to run. Today, as Masry, who believes she is the first Saudi-born woman to run for office, prepares for her third attempt to win a California Assembly seat, she tells USINFO, "I can run and run because I feel like you teach people that you have to really fight for democracy ... we have to fight for the process."

The portrait, unveiled November 7, is part of a series dedicated to historic members of Congress.

Front-Running Presidential Candidates Face High ExpectationsFront-runners in the race for U.S. president face a paradox: the advantage in leading their competitors might also be a disadvantage.

Jonathan Emord, the only attorney in history who has defeated the Food and Drug Administration in federal court on six separate occasions, hosts the new show “Health Law and Politics.” The program airs every Saturday from 4PM to 6PM Eastern and Sunday from 2PM to 4PM Eastern, via radio stations nationwide and over the Talk Star Radio Network. Jonathan Emord’s program documents instances of FDA and FTC abuse of power that sacrifice life or liberty. He interviews experts in the fields of health and medicine, litigants in cases against the FDA and the FTC, members of Congress and other government decisionmakers, and victims of FDA denial of access to medical treatment or health information. He also provides his own expert commentary on the legal and health implications of the government’s actions. “We will reveal the cost in human life, health, and liberty of political decisions that protect drug companies from competition at the expense of consumers,” Emord said. “We will show how FDA and FTC fail to follow the rule of law, harm those they were designed to help, and ignore the will of Congress, the Courts, and the American people,” he said.

GOP members announce principles on immigration reform by TimChapmanToday House Republicans opposed to the Senate McCain-Kennedy bill announced a set of five principles that immigration reform must adhere to. Those principles are: Republicans strongly support strengthening enforcement and stiffening penalties for illegal immigrants who break our immigration laws. Republicans support enforcing the law on employers who knowingly hire illegal immigrants and holding them accountable. Republicans oppose efforts to reward the behavior of illegal immigrants who have made the choice to break our laws. Republicans believe the success of our country depends on newcomers obeying the law, assimilating into American society by learning English, and embracing our common identity as Americans.
