It was such a joy to celebrate Hanukkah with Mandy, Kathryn and their son, Gideon. As Jewish New Yorkers across our city prepare to light candles and mark the seventh night today, I wish you and your families a Hanukkah full of light and love.

a start, now let’s have them give away all of their bonuses

A lot to make up for after giving $2.3 million to their executives post pandemic, after they furloughed many during it, AND reduced the number of employees by 8%

Kinda cool that Galesburg, a city of about 30,000 in western Illinois with 3 daily trains to Chicago and a fixed bus route system, has a vision for a downtown transit center next to the Amtrak station. And now Galesburg Transit has sustainable state funding!

If you live in Chicago, you can just get on a train to Galesburg any time you want. If you're unemployed, you can do it on a Thursday because nothing matters!!!!

Good move, Amtrak! Come on, corporations—do the right thing here; it’s actually good for business too!

I do think that some people who didn’t experience being Bad at Math in the 2000s and 2010s are probably really underrating how demeaning that experience was at the time

Kids these days will never get to enjoy the experience of memorizing the whole maths textbook while not understanding any of it so you can recreate enough weird symbols from memory to pass the exam

The law is pretty clear that not following an unlawful order is not only an option, but an obligation. Unlawful orders are no defense for unlawful acts.

Republicans have destroyed health care in our country. Millions will go without care, and people will die. Yet again, Republicans have shown their priorities begin and end with helping billionaires. Americans won't forget it the next time they go to the polls.
UPDATE: The Senate votes 53-47 to shoot down the Baldwin amendment to extend ACA funds for 1 year. A party-line vote with every Republican rejecting it.
An important vote in this series: Tammy Baldwin’s proposal to extend ACA expiring funds for 1 year. It’s structured as a motion to table (i.e. scrap it from the amendment tree). But it’ll show the appetite (or lack thereof) in the Senate to address this issue.
