By the way, here is the latest from Reddit on DOGE attempts to shut down the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS). Because of public outrage, they will try to do it quietly. Don't let them

Libraries are foundational. The gathering of knowledge and the freedom to explore it is at the core of democracy and a thriving culture.
Libraries cannot be left to chance, fending for themselves in a competitive marketplace. They are essential!

President Trump's executive order to eliminate the Institute of Museum & Library Services would have disastrous effects for communities nationwide. We call on all Americans who value reading & learning to reach out to their elected leaders.

Fairfax County legislator wants to redirect solar projects from farmland to parking lots. But there’s a catch.
His bill would allow localities to require commercial developers to put solar canopies over large parking lots. Developers say that drives up the cost.

“I am not going to apologize for asking for mercy for others.”

BREAKING — Joe Biden has pulled off the impossible: positive job growth EVERY SINGLE MONTH of his presidency.
The last negative month was the last full month of Trump’s first term, December 2020.
