If we aren't caring for our nurses, we are deeply failing our healthcare system. Let's get the Centerlight nurses a strong contract!
Nurses from CenterLight Healthcare delivered a strike notice and are ready to go on an unfair labor practice strike for their healthcare coverage and fair contract starting April 14! Nurses don't want to strike, but CenterLight management has left them with no choice.

Want to go visit the national parks this year?
Sorry.
The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired.

so i don’t know if susan collins knows this but she belongs to a body that has the constitutionally designated power to tell HHS to stop making these cuts because they do not have the authority to unilaterally refuse to spend congressional appropriations.
Senate Appropriations Chair Susan Collins slams the Trump admin’s NIH cuts as “poorly conceived” and says she has called RFK to “to express my strong opposition to these arbitrary cuts in funding for vital research.” She says he promised to “re-examine this initiative” if confirmed as HHS secretary.

everyone should know that Youngkin, he of the moderate media reputation, brought back a Jim Crow-era policy of *lifetime* disenfranchisement, the harshest in the nation

check out this piece:
And a further reminder that, because of Glenn Youngkin, VA’s felony disenfranchisement system is once again functioning largely as envisioned a century+ ago: boltsmag.org/virginia-gov...
A reminder that felon disenfranchisement laws were invented in Virginia and exist to specifically deny Black people the right to vote
