QUESTION: Clinton and McCain voting history on Iraq and Afghanistan war

question / pregunta: 

How have Hillary Clinton, John McCain and Barack Obama voted on key pieces of legislation authorizing spending on the Iraq and Afghanistan wars? The top 10 or 15 spending bills would be sufficient to establish a pattern.

I'm a member of the Int'l Socialist Organization and we would like to use this information on our signs.

This research should go back to the beginning of the Iraq War, since neither Clinton nor Obama were Senators in 2001 when the war in Afghanistan was launched.

QUESTION: Natural Building Books in NYC

question / pregunta: 

My partner and I are interested in natural building using cob, straw bales, and other techniques. We are trying to find a good collection of books on sustainable and alternative building methods that we could browse through and where, ideally, we would be able to borrow books. Is there a library or other resource in NYC for this kind of stuff? And are there are any places that offer workshops on these techniques here or nearby?

Thanks in advance for your help!

QUESTION: Political Science Text Recommendations

question / pregunta: 

What essential reading material (text books) are recommended for political science, history, chicano studies, and economics for college undergrads??

ADDITIONAL INFO: major texts are fine, as well as nonfiction, and I'd love to hear from radical perspectives (preferrably from the most respected and lucid radical authorities of said subjects). By History, I mean the history of the U.S.. I'd say Political science, history, and Chicano studies are my top priorities.

THANK YOU!!!

QUESTION: finding a case against Arkansas prison & Correctional Medical Services about shackling prisoners in labor

question / pregunta: 

In 2003, Shawanna Nelson, a pregnant prisoner in Arkansas, went into labor and gave birth while shackled. She filed a lawsuit against prison officials and Correctional Medical Services to abolish the practice of shackling women while they are in labor. Supposedly, the Arkansas department of corrections compromised and is now using nylon restraints on laboring prisoners instead of metal shackles and an 18-inch chain.

Where would I find the name of the lawsuit she filed and how far it got in the court system before it was dropped/settled?
