It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

CDC’s Epidemic Intelligence Service officers were among thousands let go as the administration downsizes federal health agencies. Dr. Schuchat calls it a serious blow to public safety. What’s the plan to protect us from emerging threats now?

If you have a child with a 504 plan or IEP please watch.

If you don’t…watch anyway because if you’re reading this, you know someone who does.

Please call your representatives and tell them to stop this nonsense!

Children need advocates to protect them. Please be one.

Trump’s education cuts could eliminate 72,000 teachers.

I agree—Rep. Rosa DeLauro warns this means overcrowded classrooms, slashed special ed, and gutted Pell Grants. Musk calls it “efficiency”—but it’s really the billionaires’ plan to dismantle public education and leave working families behind.

Firefighters warn: ‘It’s going to be really bad, really quick’—Trump’s hiring freeze guts wildfire response.

Wildfires are getting worse, but Trump blocked firefighter hires right before fire season. Fewer crews, slower response, more devastation. This isn’t efficiency—it’s reckless endangerment.

Idaho Lawmakers Push Bill for Mandatory Bible Readings in Schools

Rep. Jordan Redman introduced a bill to mandate daily Bible readings in Idaho schools. One religion, forced by the government—paid by taxpayers. If they can mandate one faith, what stops them from deciding all?
