New York's mayoral race could decide the city's climate future
The nation's largest city has an ambitious plan to cut emissions. Mayoral frontrunners Andrew Cuomo and Zohran Mamdani could make or break it.

No access. No answers.
El Salvador won’t even let a U.S. senator confirm he’s alive.

Protestors were told the vote was getting pushed back a week and they seemed to have passed it only after the formal protest ended. The Ohio legislature has made it crystal clear that they will pursue whatever makes them alone more comfortable no matter how they achieve it. A bunch of cowards.
The hacks in the Ohio House passed SB1
Bans DEI (undefined), bans faculty strikes and requires students to take American history or civics courses DESIGNED BY THE STATE.
And people all over Ohio say to me “How can we get our young people to stay?”

As a late Friday pm valentine, faculty & staff received an email from University of Cincinnati President Pinto stating that Trump’s DoE has “effectively outlawed” DEI and that diktat is “sweeping in [its] scope, categorical in its conclusions & pressing in its timing.”

This bill still has to go through the House and get the governor’s signature, all of which is very likely. It is deeply unpopular across the state. Please help us raise hell about it.
leaving this here:
"The bill, known as SB 1, would also establish post-tenure reviews, ban strikes by full-time faculty, and require colleges to publish a syllabus with the instructor’s professional qualifications and contact information for every class."
