tech companies turn over user information about critics of the Trump administration, according to reports.
In several cases over recent months, Homeland Security has relied on the use of administrative subpoenas to seek identifiable information about individuals who run anonymous

If the federal government won't hold ICE accountable, then Chicago will do everything in our power to bring Trump and his completely out of control federal agents to justice.

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

Yes, I felt guilt or something too often over the paths I took that led me to my happy place, because *those* paths were obvious and I chose to proceed otherwise. Did I choose or was I given the alternatives? In the end, it doesn’t matter because I’m living my dream. Thanks for the reminder, Tinker.

And, as a final testament to Alan Alda on his 90th birthday, let us never forget that he was not just a strong advocate for passage of the Equal Rights Amendment, he was literally chairman of Men For The ERA & traveled the country for it for YEARS while starring in one of the top-rated TV shows
• Rocky Mount, N.C. Telegram Tues., Jan. 23, 1979-6 Alan Alda Talks On The N Necessity Of The ERA BY BARBARA FUSSELL Telegram Family Editor "I have come here to North Carolina to plead with North Carolinians to extend to all of the people of this country the same rights that now only a minority of the people in the country have," Alan Alda said in a speech in Elizabeth City Saturday. Alda, star of television's M-AS-H on which he plays the 1 role of Hawkeye, has been traveling throughout the United States to encourage support of the Equal Rights Amendment. "I have not come to North Carolina to tell the people of this state what to think, but I want to tell them about the necessity of the ERA," Alda said. The amendment will come up again for consideration at this year's session of the N.C. General Assembly. Thirty-five states have ratified the amendment. Thirty -eight must ratify it before June : 30, 1982 for it to become part of the U.S. Constitution. In some states, Alda said, laws exist which give women few rights if they should suddenly find themselves without their husbands. "I have h heard it said many times over that we want to protect the women in our lives, and yet by not putting the ERA into our Constitution, we are doing just the opposite." Alda said. "We are not now éven recognizing that women are people, according the Constitution, and salary scales show. how much, we really care about them. say that we want to put women ‹ on pedestals and keep them there. Well, I think it is time to bring them up from their pedestals and treat them as equals." Today 12 percent of the women in this country are heads of households and have the responsibility to support and maintain a home for themselves and their families, but they experience many roadblocks, Alda said. Alda is the father of three daughters, but said that is only part of the reason he supports passage of the amendment. "I don't want my daughters to have to shop around for a state to live in where they will have the same rights have," he said. "My daughters' are American citizens, and I want to know that they, as well as all the other women in this country, will have the same opportunities and rights to be treated as people just as men Dear Abby families under the ERA are unfounded. "We don't have to worry about * what would happen,' he said. "There are 14 states that now have ERAs in their state constitutions. Millions of people are now living under ERAs in those states, and no problems have developed which make those fears worth worrying about.' In Pennsylvania, Alda said, the passage of a state ERA has meant that women who have been homemakers while their hubands supported them now get credit for the value of their work when a divorce occurs. Before the state ERA was passed, Alda said, a woman involved in a divorce case was not entitled to any of the household goods unless she could prove she had paid for them with her own money. Now, he said, monetary and nor considered. contributions to a marriage are "This is an extraordinarily important principle," he said. "The work that homemakers do is now being valued. A bunch of flowers every once in a while is not the same as saying it is worth money, and it's worth money now in those 14 states." There has been no breakup of families, no striking down of protective labor laws, he said. "And," he added, "toilets have not been integrated. I'm sure you were waiting breathlessly for that news." . "A great injustice is being done to the women in this country as well as the men,' Alda says. "Most women have what they have as a privilege, but what happens should they find themselves without a man, then t they will find out that what they have is a privilege and not their right. "Men like to feel that they are protecting the women in their lives, and this is fine. We should protect them, but by protecting them we are also cutting them off and making things harder for them," Alda says. "If you really love the women in your lives, you will. protect them by giving them their rights and by letting them be recognized as persons in the U.S. Constitution and the only way this can be done is by the passage of the Equal Rights Amendment. "The laws which now exist are valuable to women as well as to men, but they are not enforced and I do not say that with the passage of ERA that there will be any immediate overwhelming changing of things. It will still be a battle, but at the time of the passage of the amendment the struggle will begin and the Equal Rights Amendment will be a tool with which to work to fight the battle of equality in this country. "We love the women in our lives and we want to protect and love them, and I say, let's care enough about them to let them have the right to make their own decisions just as we as men have this right. The passage of ERA will not change the feelings or the love that we have for women, but will give them the equality that they should have," Alda says. "ERA is not dead in North Carolina and I implore the people of this state to say yes and to do it right now," Alda said. "We have an obligation and a responsibility to pass this amendment and to give women the rights with which they as people are entitled to have," Alda concluded. "The only thing wrong with the ERA is that we don't have it yet." Miss Blevins Is Wed Sheila Renee Blevins and James Elmer Savage, Jr., both of Rocky Mount, were united in marriage on Saturday, January 20, at 2. p. m. at Falls Road Baptist Church in Rocky Mount.
