Understand USDA is now fast tracking to rehire front line employees working on bird flu outbreaks. They were “accidentally” fired by the administration. 

Translation: Nice job Musk! You and your friends will still get your tax breaks, but higher egg prices for everyone else.

All I can really say at this point is if everyone isn't watching how trans people have lost basic rights and protections on a scale that hasn't been seen in decades in the span of 72 hours and realizing that even if you aren't trans there's nothing stopping it from happening to you, you're a fool

I'm strongly supporting Rep. Gerry Connolly's Saving the Civil Service Act to protect the people against Trump's hostile takeover of our civil service.

Democracy can’t work without a civil service which operates on the basis of merit, not partisan control for private plunder.

Most immigrants Trump targets have been here 10+ years, paying taxes, raising families, contributing to our communities.

Mass deportation would devastate our economy and tear apart the social fabric of America.

An executive order attacking trans and nonbinary people is also an attack against pregnant people.
