So basically RFK Jr’s antivax ACIP were unable to make any big changes to vaccine access because they were too incompetent. We should all take this as a win I guess…

The Japanese government has launched "Decokatsu," a campaign to help citizens decarbonize & live more eco aligned lifestyles. It consists of 4 actions & one of them is...

Japan’s government-run program to encourage climate action promises big monthly savings. But few people have heard of it.
Decokatsu could save you money and help the planet. But you probably haven't heard of it.
The ambitious government program aims to get people to live in ways that are healthier for the planet without being restrictive about it.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will direct federal health agencies to explore potential new treatments for measles as the U.S. faces its largest outbreak in 25 years. Experts fear the decision could have grave consequences, as studies show the existing vaccine is 97% effective in preventing infection.

The so-called “moderate” GOP position on Medicaid cuts is no cuts above $500 billion.
Hello? That would mean 18 million children and 2 million adults with disabilities lose health care coverage, according to the latest estimates.

Working full time for the federal minimum wage is not enough to keep someone over the poverty line — even if that person is single w/no dependents
The right talks about the "dignity of work" but what kind of dignity is provided by a full-time job that is not enough to live on?

By announcing they’re “only” going to cut $600 billion in benefits

NBC has confirmed what we have been saying for weeks. Hegseth clearly copied classified strike schedules from a secure device to his personal phones. This alone would get a line service member thrown in prison. But when it’s SecDef we are supposed to ignore it.
