Together you are strong, divided you are weak

Medicaid didn't go offline because it was too "woke."

Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris #climate agreement is an act of environmental vandalism & shows what the fossil fuel industry can buy with their $75m donation to his campaign. But it’s important to remember leaders across US are already taking stronger climate action & the economic case is clear
