NEW: Public Citizen launched a tracker to monitor state-level efforts to regulate AI in healthcare coverage decisions.

So far, there are 53 legislative proposals across 25 states.

Until every state takes action, millions of patients and families remain vulnerable.

So a big part of the Project 2025 goals hinges on forcing women out of the workforce. The Heritage Foundation knows that women voters hold the most power in terms of sheer numbers. If they can push you out of the workforce, they can push you out of your voting rights.
Digging into the data of what's taking place with Black women unemployment and this graph is pretty damning.

You can see the EXACT month Black women's unemployment begins to splinter and that what hit us FIRST is now coming for all other women. This is #TheDoubleTax.

Federal "permitting reform" (e.g., The SPEED Act, HR 4776) is the Billionaire's version of climate action.

People, land and water, wildlife are little but: (1) Commodities for extraction; or (2) Barriers to wealth and power accumulation.

It's a giant grift.
ICYMI: The GOP is trying to pass Permitting Reform legislation that would gut protections for Tribes and communities to oppose strip mining and oil and gas drilling.

These lands have been protected by Tribal treaty rights since the 19th Century. How is this America First?

AI data centers are sucking up communities’ power & water.

AI is being used by corporations to shaft consumers and is threatening young workers’ job prospects.

So Trump wants to ram through a ban on state AI regulation — all to help out his Big Tech billionaire friends.

Priorities.
