Happy Birthday to those celebrating their birthday in October!

The background is indigo blue, the next layer is light orange with pink & orange balloons tied with ribbons & bows. The birthday cake has a big heart decoration in black with Happy Birthday in orange sitting on top of the cookies. The cake has light orange icing, covering the of top of the cake has a variety of cookies and decorations. Text: Celebrating all October Birthdays! Happy Birthday! “October is associated with a dominantly warm color palette: tiger orange, burgundy—as well as a pop of indigo blue. The orange & burgundy are reminiscent of a season of pumpkin patches, mulled wine & meandering rides along roads lined with vibrant, changing leaves. The blend of blue & violet in Indigo is often associated with deep-thinking, self-reflection, & evoking a sense of calmness & relaxation, ideal for October, a month of big change.”

Senator Durbin has a legal right to inspect the conditions. I hope he has lawyers involved to get access. Do the victims have access to lawyers?

The Chihuahua is wearing a witches hat, with a black chin strap, a sheer net black veil that extends past her shoulders. A black cloak that ties at the neck, pooled around on the floor. In the back ground are wall decorations of two bats, and a smiling pumpkin. On the floor is a yellow and black bee costume.

Our team is in court every day on behalf of people who rely on the government to deliver services that keep them safe.

That’s why we’re suing the Trump-Vance admin for unlawful attempts to fire federal workers.

Last night, the court set a hearing for next week before the RIFs go into effect.

Thank you for your posts. Thank you for the amazing people working. The wages and working conditions are unacceptable. How, who, and when can pay be a living wage with benefits plus health insurance & a healthier working environment for all of the people that work in agriculture?
