175 women demand change to culture, sexual harassment policies at the Legislature
More than 170 women who work or have worked at the state Capitol have signed onto a letter urging sweeping change at the Legislature to end inappropriate behavior and misconduct women say they face on the job. The letter, released Monday, comes after a turbulent last week in Olympia where two former lawmakers faced accusations of sexual misconduct, and a host of women at the Capitol said they often experience sexist or inappropriate behavior, ranging from unwanted comments and touching to groping or harassment. The letter is the broadest call yet for reform following a story last week by The News Tribune, The Olympian and Northwest News Network about the atmosphere for women at the Legislature. Organizers say they started circulating the letter on Friday. So far 42 women lawmakers, dozens of women lobbyists, and some former legislative staffers have signed onto the letter. There was a bipartisan mix of legislators, including 32 Democratic women lawmakers and 10 Republicans.

Australian PM Issues Warning, Announces New Plan to Halt Dual Citizenship Crisis
New rules are to be introduced to make all MPs and senators in Australia register their citizenship status following the scandal that has forced six politicians to quit office - leaving the country's government deadlocked. Current and future MPs and senators will have to lodge declarations and produce evidence that they are not foreign citizens before standing for official office under a new disclosure measure announced by Australian prime minister Malcolm Turnbull on Monday, November 6. The move comes amid a dual citizenship crisis that has already led to six politicians — some of them high-profile — being forced to quit their government roles after being discovered to have links with another foreign country.
US Air Force Didn’t Notify FBI of Texas Church Shooter’s Criminal History
The man believed to have murdered 26 people in a Texas church on Sunday was able to legally purchase the firearm used in the slaughter because the US Air Force mishandled information about his criminal history, the service reported Monday. The US Air Force did not submit the criminal history of gunman Devin Patrick Kelley to the FBI as required by their own regulations. Kelley, who also injured 20 in his attack on the First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs, Texas, was ousted from the Air Force for domestic violence toward his ex-wife and his stepson in 2012. That information, had it been shared, should have prevented him from buying a firearm.

Why church shootings don’t intimidate the church
Whether they are crazed loners in the United States or jihadist cells in Syria or governing councils in the old Soviet bloc, these forces fundamentally misunderstand the source of Christianity’s strength in the first place. Killers assume, after all, that gunfire or poison gas or mass beheadings will show Christians how powerless we are. That is true. They assume that this sense of powerlessness will rob the community of its will to be the church. That is false. If they looked overhead, in almost any of the churches they attempt to destroy, these killers might see what they miss: the cross. The day of the shooting was, for many churches, a day of remembrance for the persecuted church.
