I’m seeing so many posts from mothers whose kids have been referred for autism testing and are deciding to hold off.
Presto, autism numbers decline because people are too afraid to get tested. Problem solved 🙄

The richest man in the world spent more money than most of us will see in our lifetimes to lose a state Supreme Court race by 10 points.
And the fact his $25 million was a drop in the bucket compared to what he's spent on other elections is exactly why we must overturn Citizens United.

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.
