Millions of parents, mostly mothers, have stopped working for pay because of the pandemic child care crisis. Many others have had to work fewer hours or decide not to take a promotion. The disruption could have long-term career costs. https://t.co/UrzVlTGxM5

@ScottMoorhead @BanffMtnFest The best! Going on 15 years of watching this film fest world tour.

We're glad that @POTUS listened to the recommendations of National Economic Transition partners by establishing an interagency working group that focuses on coal and power plant communities as part of today's Executive Order. (1/)

With toddler twins I don’t know why this was surprising, but I had no idea how much of my life I’d spend, Dustbuster in hand, cleaning the floor under the kitchen table 🤷🏻‍♀️

“It will be a horrible stain on humanity for decades to come if we become the generation to oversee the return of such a terrible scourge. This is still avoidable.” https://t.co/HlAaKWJPzZ

Utility @apsFYI is offering $144 million to coal country communities on and off the Navajo and Hopi lands to help them transition their economies away from the soon-to-close coal plants https://t.co/C6IrxYepPq

As the coal industry continues to decline, new research from @worcaction shows 6,000 full time jobs could be created to reclaim tens of thousands of acres of mined land across the West https://t.co/3YkOEHXQWu #ReclamationJobs

[Bloomberg Opinion @opinion]

In August and September, more than a million people dropped out of the workforce. 80% of them were women.

When women give up their careers, the choice is almost never truly a free one https://t.co/9ZNfaXQfIH

The @GrandFoundation started a Grand County Wildfire Emergency Fund. https://t.co/udiawVDCDi and the Boulder @CommFound has a 2020 Fires Relief Fund https://t.co/qFMAJBlXUK if you are looking for ways to support fire-affected communities. #EastTroublesomeFire #CalwoodFire

The new jobs report shows just how awful the crisis has been for women. A huge number of moms are leaving the workforce entirely. We must save our child care system, fund our schools, & contain COVID-19 so we don't lose a whole generation of working women. https://t.co/cJLOiCvQKr

@ScottMoorhead 100% accurate!

So sad to see such a phenomenal project and resource for the Cville community close.

[The Charlottesville 29 @TheCville29]

BreadWorks Bakery & Deli has been an extraordinary project -- an excellent non-profit bakery focused on employing people with disabilities. Service was always top-notch. Another victim of COVID-19, BreadWorks will close on September 25.
