Writing #PostcardsToVoters has shown me that there is ALWAYS a campaign that needs our help - even now, in the time between the last day to mail postcards for Election Day and Election Day itself. 🥰

Spotted this fun orange coloring on a grosbeak that visited the feeder today - although I can't decide if it's an immature/non-breeding male or a female. Any more experienced birders have thoughts? (Southern MN, 5/27)

A little mad I didn't start reading the Wolfsong series before now. 😤 The audiobooks are so well done, and this series is definitely one that will stick out for me!

Will add that those who put this man in power knew better and should be held accountable.

HHS Secretary RFK Jr. is a danger to the public’s health and should resign or be fired, says APHA. In just a few short weeks, his actions on vacccines, fluoride and other public health science have shown how wrong he is for the job. Read & share our statement: apha.org/news-and-med...

The latest on the CDC lead poisoning prevention team layoffs: www.cbsnews.com/news/rfk-jr-....
Americans are already being affected by this decision. Note that CDC's lead work costs taxpayers less than $1 annually (about 44 cents/person), and no one else was doing it.

I love this 🥺 public health is about our communities, and it takes all of us to build that healthy community!
Happy National Public Health Week, friends. There is so much we can all do to enhance public health, from the individual level to the neighborhood, local, state, and national levels. To get involved, join us in playing some public health bingo.

If you tell me you "aren't dieting" because you eat 1400 calories a day...
That is, in fact, a restrictive diet and your body probably needs more calories. 💚 Remember to fuel your body so we can better smash the patriarchy, friends!
