Thank you for the Ohio info. I had heard this briefly on local news, but wasn’t sure if it was good or bad. Thanks for the clarification!

Another win. Mass AG won a court order against the Trump administration, blocking them from accessing private Medicaid data for immigration purposes.

This absolutely needs to be said. Low information voters look at Kinzinger and Liz Cheney and admire their positions standing up for the Constitution, but are woefully unaware of their right wing voting records: against common sense gun control, reproductive rights, LGBTQ protections, etc...Perhaps some of these have evolved, but I would wait to hear their positions before truly trusting them with any votes. They are both, imho, positioning themselves for post-fascist elections.

You aren't preachy, you're standing up for common decency. Your third grade teacher taught you well, God bless her. And you, Ariella. We must not become our enemies while trying to rid ourselves of them. I will quibble a bit, by saying that sometimes ridicule has a place in dealing with autocrats, as for whatever reasons, they can't stand it when someone points out that the Emperor Has No Clothes. But that's a bit nuanced.

Oh absolutely, but as you said it’s nuanced and not just an excuse to be cruel, which I think a lot of people are using it as.

As Comptroller, Brad Lander also issued a report detailing how beneficial immigrants are to NYC.

I actually looked for an email or way to contact Mr. Kinzinger to voice this very concern. I admire his willingness to stand up but am tired of him saying the Dems are not doing anything. It is one thing to provide ideas and constructive criticsm. It is another just to bash and send a message of hopelessness.

Thank you. You have the right way we need to go forward. What is the US to each of us and how do we want our country to be. What values? What way of governing? Speak out the future we want for our children and grandchildren. And point out and praise and encourage those working for those values.
