National parks in Canada are free this summer. Without a doubt, the US should protect public lands. Once they’re gone, that’s irreversible damage for future generations.

An autism "registry" culled from private medical records could potentially violate federal privacy laws and runs the risk of abuse.

It also harkens back to a time when disabled people were labeled, segregated, and excluded. We won't go back.

A felon is President of the US. Evangelical white christians reject teachings of Jesus; billionaire from South Africa is cutting benefits for millions of Americans: a puppy killer is head of Homeland Security. An anti-science man is head of HHS. and on and on... this isn't an April fools joke.

When they lie the bombing plans were not classified, take hostage visa holders because they said something they didn’t like, remove people with tattoos to an El Salvador prison without due process…they are telling us they reject the rule of law and embrace a fascist future as a pariah state.

Steve Bannon did a Sieg Heil at CPAC. I'm a 3rd generation Holocaust survivor. My grandparents met in a Concentration Camp. My grandfather's wife & young daughter were murdered. My grandmother's brothers were murdered. Her mother died in her arms from starvation. Is THIS what life in America is NOW?

In order to keep my tenure as a public school teacher, I can’t accept gifts worth more than $50, and I am evaluated once a year to prove I am proactively working for my students.

I’d like the same to be true for Supreme Court Justices.
