You have three days, starting today, to leave a public comment with the FDA about, say, why COVID-19 boosters should remain available to everyone and also free. "Individual consumer" is the category you most likely want (unless you are one of the other categories; if so, choose that).

Congress still hasn't fixed the local D.C. budget shortfall it caused in the first place. Now, the mayor is instituting a spending freeze and warning furloughs might be necessary.

The Trump administration is threatening tariffs on Mexico and Canada for failing to block the flow of fentanyl to the US while simultaneously cutting funding for addiction which will cause demand for illegal drugs, including fentanyl, to rise. Another contradictory and ridiculous action.
Trump team revokes $11 billion in funding for addiction, mental health care
The Trump administration says it hopes to save $11.4 billion by freezing and revoking COVID-era grants. Addiction experts say clawing back the federal funding is risky and could put patients at risk.

Rubio is threatening more sanctions on Venezuela if they don't accept deportees yet current US sanctions are damaging Venezuela's economy and contributing to the country's current outgoing migrant crisis. This is all so crazy.

Psyched to see DC residents out in force (and with their kids on this day off) demonstrating against the proposed Continuing Resolution that threatens to cut $1 billion from the DC budget!

If you live outside DC, contact your senator and tell them to reject this budget!
It is honestly wild to me that Republicans cooked up a bill that would prohibit D.C. from spending more than $1 billion of its own budget, devastating our city services out of pure spite, *and Senate Democrats might actually vote for it.* Utterly appalling. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
House spending bill would lead to $1B in D.C. cuts. Here’s what that means.
The bill, also known as a continuing resolution, now moves to the Senate, where D.C. officials hope Democrats will help them defeat the measure.
