Senate News: Republicans are trying to sneak a provision into their latest government funding bill that would make it easier to sell off public lands and national parks, and may have the votes to do it. If you care about protecting your public lands, now’s the time to make it known.

RFK Jr. has cancelled grants to the American Academy of Pediatrics because “they no longer align with departmental priorities”.

The grants were on such topics as “reducing sudden infant death, rural access to health care, and mental health…”

The AAP has criticized RFK Jr. That’s the real reason.

For over half a century, the Endangered Species Act has protected our plants and wildlife from permanent extinction on planet Earth.

We’re two days from Congress recessing for the holiday, and the GOP is trying to gut the ESA. This is Project 2025 in action, and we are fighting back!

"There is a cult of ignorance in the US, and there has always been.

Please if you could call or write your congressman and senators. Tell them we are asking for a new law to make sure people with disabilities are able to live a life with dignity.

Anyone can become disabled at anytime. We are a large group. 1 in 4 people has a disability.

We can do better.

Two babies were born in New York within a year of each other, soon after WWII.

One, Rob Reiner, lived a life of humanity and achievement. He brought us delight and joy. His memory will be a blessing.

The other, Donald Trump, will be remembered as an embarrassment to our nation.

Here’s Zelenskyy, freely walking in Kupyansk that Russia claimed to have occupied.

So when we talk about “occupied territories in exchange for peace”, what exactly are we talking about.
