Did you know that a typhoon just hit Alaska & displaced over 1,000 people and washed away entire communities?

Nobody in the world, nobody in history, has ever gotten their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of the people who were oppressing them. -

The bipartisan Restore Trust in Congress Act is a necessary step to ban Members of Congress and their families from engaging in insider trading.
It is time to pass this bill and make it clear to the American people that their elected officials put them first.

Being a tomato dumper is hard work. This crew of 28 pickers harvests thousands of 24lb buckets a day. That makes for a lot of work for the two dumpers. #WeFeedYou #LaborDay

Rodney: Unions are about freedom, fairness, and security. I’m an ironworker apprentice instructor. You’ve got the freedom to travel if you want. You’ve got the freedom to take time off if you need to. They’re fair with wages across the board…

Yesterday we posted about the Trump administration shutting down the LGBTQ+ youth crisis line, the “press 3” option on 988 is officially gone. The Trevor Project is stepping up to help fill the gap, and they could really use some support right now. If you’re able, please consider donating! 🏳️🌈 💛
