This is important to us because what’s happening right now in Congress could permanently change protections for a beloved wilderness area. With everything else going on, this quietly moved forward while most people weren’t paying attention and it should concern all of us.

After Hurricane Melissa, the beekeeping community in Jamaica was severely affected. WCK saw how much these producers had lost and wanted to support them. We supplied producers with sugar to help feed the bees and with essential materials for hive care and honey production. (1/2)

This message is for the “Do Something” crowd:

If you performed your civic duties in 2024, this message is not for you, but I would appreciate you reposting this message for those who need to hear it.

The time to “do something” was 2024, and it will be again in 2026 and 2028.

Speak up and vote!

House Democrats just DEFEATED a Republican bill to let employers deny overtime pay or minimum wage to workers if they classify time worked as "job training" or "education."

6 Republicans joined us and the vote failed; GOP leaders then cancelled votes on two more anti-labor bills.

Tipped workers earn every dollar they make.

House Republicans want to weaken the rules that protect them, even though the sub-minimum wage hasn’t changed in decades.

If your paycheck depends on tips, this bill puts you at risk.

It’s not a worker protection act — it’s a corporate giveaway.

Every video exposes Secretary Noem's lies and proves that an ICE officer shot & killed Renee Nicole Good in cold blood. She was never a threat. After killing her, he cussed at her.

I want Sec. Noem to know: The American people are watching her. I'm impeaching her and she will be held accountable.
