It appears the GOP removed Article 1 Section 9 of the US Constitution from the US Congress’s Annotated Constitution site. The section that says habeas corpus rights cannot be suspended. They just cut it out.

Do you need a climate or decarbonization coach? Enough people are having trouble making climate-friendly purchases that companies, nonprofits and agencies are stepping in to help. Here's my @npr.org story: www.npr.org/2025/05/07/n...
Need help switching appliances from gas to electric? A 'coach' can help
Government incentives for climate-friendly upgrades are confusing to navigate, and it can be hard to find businesses that sell them. So a new industry is emerging to help: the decarbonization coach.
