The hummingbird is the undisputed star of my native garden. A tiny, whirring marvel, it hovers like a gemstone, sipping nectar with a grace that's simply mesmerizing. It's a quick, vibrant shot of pure magic that I never get tired of seeing. #hummingbird #natiplants #birds

NEW: Within the EPA is a small program called IRIS, which measures the threat of toxic chemicals.

Two new bills pose the gravest threat to the program’s existence since it was created four decades ago.
Industry-Backed Legislation Would Bar the Use of Science Behind Hundreds of Environmental Protections
Two bills in Congress would prohibit the Environmental Protection Agency from using hundreds of chemical assessments completed by its IRIS program in environmental regulations or enforcement.

My health insurance story.
Take my hand.

I haven’t paid a $3500 ER bill from May because I simply can’t. And that’s AFTER insurance.
My near perfect credit report is ruined.

I was at home incredibly sick for a month, refusing to go to the hospital because of money.

The American way of life.
