Federal workers discover treatments and cures for diseases. They keep us safe from disasters and emergencies of all kinds. What’s more, they take care that the laws are faithfully executed every day even when the president is trying to thwart and destroy the laws and the Constitution.

The SAVE Act will require voters to provide unnecessary documentation to vote.
This bill would make voting harder for people of color, women, and low-income people — groups of people who already face more difficulties at the polls.

The CDC has ordered that all papers that have been submitted by their employees for peer review be retracted so that they may be “reviewed” for such words as gender, LGBT, or nonbinary. They must excise such language and then resubmit. This is a disgrace.
