Now that I live in a tiny, rural, red city, I’m finding so much joy and energy from the small local protests. Today we spoke out to save the USPS from privatization, and I was surprised by how many cars honked in solidarity. Definitely feeling less isolated.

Something I haven't seen covered extensively with regards to the Department of Education is the fact that the Individuals with Disabilities in Education Act (IDEA) funds early intervention services, along with Medicaid. EI is usually free, or very low cost for families.
