The Trump administration has terminated HICPAC, the CDC’s infection control committee.
The committee sets national standards for hand-washing, mask-wearing and isolating sick patients.
This reckless move will make patients at healthcare facilities much more vulnerable to deadly infections.

Empire threatens and intimidates because it wants us to be afraid, small, and alone. It wants us to withdraw and isolate so that we lose our capacity to build power and organize.
So let us be together.
Let us find each other.

All anti-mask laws—even those with so called “medical exceptions”—stigmatize mask-wearing.
Fewer people wearing masks increases the spread of infectious diseases.
No matter how lawmakers try to spin it, any law that criminalizes wearing a mask endangers public health. Period.

CDC has never had authority to give or enforce mandates. CDC is essentially an advisor. States implement that advice to varying degrees. When republicans say they want to reform CDC's authority they mean remove the ability to make recommendations. This is exactly what Project 2025 calls for.

Two of the most impactful and powerful resources you have available to you are your attention and endurance. Allocate them wisely.
Understand there are immediate, mid, and long-term goals. Do not conflate every action into one, and also remain focused on the bigger picture.
