A pathway to citizenship is the least these workers deserve. documentedny.com/2025/09/11/u...
They Helped Rebuild After 9/11. Now They Live in Fear of Deportation.

With big surprise (not), using ChatGPT weakens memory, neural activity, originality & reduces creativity.

Great brain scans study from the MIT.
