In this week's roundup: A big FDA announcement on menopause, what the recent elections mean for reproductive freedom, Kim Davis flops but efforts to undermine marriage equality continue, and fetal personhood laws continue apace.

An anonymous donor just offered to match up to $1,000 to my fundraiser in support of health benefits for @scarleteen.com's staff and an as-needed health fund for volunteers, which means your $1 is worth $2! Anyone want to join in with ANOTHER match to turn that into $3?

It just doesn’t get NIMBYer than Annapolis freaking Maryland and Chelsea’s spouse is an urbanist ready to tackle the NIMBYs. If you’re pissed at Schumer, start in your own back yard. I assure you there’s a Schumer or ten in your state legislature, on your city council, on your school board.
Very personal example: My spouse won two local elections (2021 + 2025) on an unapologetically pro-housing, pro-working class platform even though the city of Annapolis has a strong and vocal anti-housing contingent. You can run on your values (or support those who do) and show folks what's possible!

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office.
No matter how they voted last night, every one of them has a say in maintaining Chuck Schumer and Dick Durbin as their caucus leaders. Every one of them is accountable here.

What gets me, among other things, is thinking about how few of these Senators have likely ever really worried about healthcare. Gone without insurance just hoping nothing awful happens. Lost access to a medication because of cost. Panicked that a chronic illness would make it impossible to get care.

Schumer can be removed from his Dem leadership role this week - 23 Dems (and/or independents) just have to vote to depose him
And they should, given this is his fault.
And they should, given this is his fault.
This is a lovely sentiment but Schumer isn't up for re-election until 2028 and he knows this. At which point he will be 77/78. There's no mechanism to recall a sitting senator AFAIK.
Let’s be clear: Chuck Schumer is the one ending this shutdown, no matter how the votes read.
Chuck Schumer is claiming that he’s voting no, while letting other Senators (Fetterman, Kaine, King, etc) do HIS dirty work.
He must be removed from his leadership & primaried for the sake of this country
