We know what to do

Fight the power. Rage against the machine.

@senatorleawebb.bsky.social cities around the world have created public banks to invest in their communities, not big business. It's time for Albany to empower local communities by passing the New York Public Banking Act! Let's keep our public dollars supporting our public institutions.

Notice - Cortland County Legislature intends to make their July vacation permanent. We keep giving ourselves July off & yet each year there is work to be done for our community. Buried in the changes to our Rules of Order in the Gov Ops meeting next week are changes that would make this permanent.

I do not consent to having my data accessed and stolen by an unelected, unconfirmed, foreign-born billionaire and his hired hackers. @schumer.senate.gov @aoc.bsky.social @kenmartin.bsky.social please do more to protect our rule of law! (wish I could ask my reps but they aren't here) #Idonotconsent

February is Black History Month - a perfect opportunity to recall the tremendous contributions and important history of Black Americans to our community and our nation. Let’s continue to work together to build a more equitable and inclusive society.

Some of what DEI is:

-ramps and sidewalk curb cuts
-subtitles & captions (TV & phone)
-family restrooms
-changing tables in men’s restrooms
-breast feeding/pumping stations & accommodations
-floating paid holidays
-pay equity & transparency
-parental leave (time & pay)

Ready for Christmas Eve tomorrow and enjoying our family tradition of Jólabókflóðið (the Christmas book flood). I hope everyone is able to celebrate in their own traditions with those they love.

Finally some snow here in Cortland. It’s pretty late in the year to finally get something #letitsnow #winteriscoming #climatechange

My #jolabokaflod book list just keeps growing because of the great podcast interviews from @goingmedieval.bsky.social , @mattlewishistory.bsky.social , @k8lister.bsky.social and the whole History Hit team. Too many books, not enough time!

#jolabokaflod is one of my favorite traditions of the holiday season. Make it even better by shopping local and supporting independent bookstores!

Yep pretty much

Thank you @chuckschumer.bsky.social for helping to secure $4,000,000 for rail improvements in #Cortland
