Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

A US-Israeli startup is working on a way to blot out (turn down?) the SUN! They are claiming it will help climate change. So far there are no international regulations against it. This scientist, who was a consultant for them, still has questions.

Rep. Rosa DeLauro: "On the food stamp issue, the money is there! Let them not get away with saying they can't do it. Their political will isn't there to feed the people who rely on the SNAP program which is the most effective anti-hunger program in the USA."

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

“Money is an abstraction to keep score for them. But it’s food, health, and shelter for everyone else.”
Billionaires are now in the business of advocating policies that will make the vast majority’s lives tangibly worse in order to make their lives unnoticeably better. Money is an abstraction to keep score for them. But it’s food, health, and shelter for everyone else.

Starting November 1st, New Mexico will become the first state to offer free universal childcare to all its residents.
It's expected to save families over $12,000 per child annually.
This is a huge step forward — and a reminder that we have the power to fix the system.

In the midpoint of the decade, it is crazy that my law firm is currently involved in eight redistricting cases. Even worse, as of today, I expect that will grow to twelve in the next month or so.
Republicans want to make it harder for you to vote and easier for them to cheat.

Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts.
But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy.
In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states.
This is why unions are vital.
