My grandmother was 5 months pregnant with my father when she received the news that my grandfather, a WWII pilot, had died. He was awarded the Purple Heart and Air Medal, sacrificed his future for our freedom. Do not take for granted the extraordinary gift of freedom. Do not give it up.

Watch this PSA from our board member @johncusack.bsky.social: Democracy is under attack — and paywalls shouldn’t stand in the way of accessing vital public records.
News outlets, it’s time to drop the paywalls for FOIA-based reporting.
@wired.com did it. @404media.co did it.
Now, it’s your turn.

NOAA is reportedly on the DOGE chopping block.
The National Weather Service, which is part of NOAA, provides life saving weather forecasting in the US.
A study found that for every $1 invested in NWS, it produces $73 in value to Americans.
Again, this isn't about efficiency.
