My electrician is a green card holder who's been here since he was a kid. He got married to a citizen, applied for citizenship, went to court for the papers and when he got there ICE kidnapped him and he's been locked up for a month.

Between 1979–2019, top pay (90th pct.) climbed 53%, middle only 23%, bottom (10th pct.) even lower 7%. (Productivity per hour climbed much more at 73%.)
But since 2019, fast gains at the bottom have already reversed about 1/3 of the rise in pay inequality.

Sometimes the concept that some people have of interdisciplinary is analogous to thinking that if you put more and more chefs from different background in the kitchen you’ll get a better dish and never thinking that there are too many chefs in the kitchen

Michiganders are sharing their health insurance premiums increases with me… not 10% or 20%, but in one example - $200/month to $2900/month.
Republicans have tried to kill the ACA more than 70 times since 2010, and have never once had a plan for anything better.
