They’re Coming for Your Vote. Make Them Pay at the Polls.
From the suffrage parade to the SAVE Act, the objective has remained unchanged: fracture women’s political power through incremental barriers, a strategy history shows fails when women move together.

I believe it was Wyden’s way to create a paper trail. He may not feel confident receiving acknowledgment of his top secret letter from Radliffe… Also, to give the public and colleagues a head’s up the only way he could that something is terribly amiss with IC. Just my speculation.

And... more goods news (also yesterday European countries pledged to expand wind energy on sea eight fold)
Big moment for Europe: in December, fully electric cars outsold petrol-only cars in the EU for the first time.
This shows that clear, consistent policy works. Which is exactly why backtracking now would be a mistake. Rolling back targets or creating uncertainty would slow investment and innovation.
