While their constituents are asleep, Republicans are trying to take away health care from 13.7 million people to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.

So, a single parent of a 7-year-old is subject to work requirements to qualify for SNAP. But a *married* parent of a 7-year old can stay home to care for their child, if their spouse works.
The Ag Committee's part of the Reconciliation Bill raises the SNAP work requirement age for able-bodied adults without dependents from 54 to 64. It also changes the definition of "dependent child" from under 18 years to under 7 years old to determine "Able-bodied adult without dependents."

Never talk to them.

Serious answer: cops don't only arrest guilty people. If they did, my job would be a lot easier.
It doesn't matter why the cops are questioning you. If they're questioning you, they're planning to charge you with something. Don't help them.
ALWAYS shut up and demand a lawyer. ALWAYS.

It’s going fast. Lawyers have to move in unity - law firms, civil rights, law schools, tax lawyers, prosecutors, criminal defense, family law, civil law, immigration.
Stand together. Fight for our integrity and our profession.

And, for the selfish, likely our greatest source of soft (if not often hard) power.
And it is getting torched to the ground.
