@adammockler.com There isn’t a topic as important as #IndoorAirQuality, how it impacts our future, and how politics is preventing the betterment of health for students and teachers.

Republicans have given up on governing for the American people and are all-in on serving their wealthy masters. That’s why we’re focused on training one million Americans — this is how we move forward as a movement in the face of Trump’s GOP that does not care about rules, laws, or the courts.

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.

While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.

This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

I’ve been in academic medicine for 45 years. This is the first time I’m seeing a perfect storm, as proposed federal funding cuts threaten our ability to provide patient care, train the next generation of doctors, and conduct life-saving research. More from my conversation with @cnn.com last week.

Funding cuts to Medicaid and other programs included in the sweeping tax-and-spending bill would hurt low-income households financially more than the tax cuts would boost their finances, according to nonpartisan analyses of the bill.
GOP tax bill could hurt the poorest households more than it helps them
Cuts to Medicaid and anti-poverty programs wipe out gains low-income households could see from policies like no taxes on tips and overtime, nonpartisan estimates show.

In addition to protest marches and rallies, we have many more options for peaceful resistance to the authoritarian regime.

These two web sites outline many nonviolent strategies. You can choose the ones that work best for your community.

No uniform, unmarked car, what the hell?
WE HAVE QUESTIONS…

This is a kidnapping. No uniform, no badge, civilian car. Who are they?

ICE? Sanctioned bounty hunters? Either way, they’re grabbing people without warrants.

How often is this happening, and why aren’t more people talking about it? Congress?
