UPDATE: The Administration is extending the pause on federal student loan repayments to allow for the Supreme Court to rule in the case on the student debt relief program.
The pause will end no later than June 30, 2023. Payments will resume 60 days after the pause ends.

may we protect all the brave and righteous Iranian women in their struggle, and may the patriarchy come tumbling down in a great purifying blaze.

Since last November we’ve been engaged in contract bargaining with CAP management, fighting for a fair contract.
Last week, an overwhelming majority of our bargaining unit voted and 99% rejected @amprog’s wage offer. https://t.co/aivZbChjlB
.@amprog left us with no choice.
Our members voted to send a clear message that CAP's offer is insufficient to meet our needs.
We’re asking CAP to live its values and provide staff with liveable wages.

20 years after taking out student loans, the average white borrower has paid off 94% of their debt.
The average Black borrower still OWES 95% of their debt.
Say it with me: student loan debt is a racial justice issue.
The CDC reduction of isolation for positive covid cases from 10 to 5 is IF YOU ARE ASYMPTOMATIC.
Meaning if you test positive, isolate for 5 days. THEN if you are asymptomatic, you can leave isolation but STILL WEAR A MASK AROUND OTHER PEOPLE FOR 5 DAYS.
Today, the CAP Union begins contract negotiations.
We are excited to meet with management to develop an even fairer, more progressive contract for our members.
Thanks to @NonProfitUnion for always having our back!
Today, @Snapchat unveiled their Run for Office tool, designed to tackle common barriers that young people face when considering running for office.

Following the Vietnam War, our country welcomed 120,000 refugees in a single year.
Yet the United States has only taken in ~2,000 Afghan refugees thus far.
We have a duty to save lives — and to do so, we must welcome many, many more refugees as quickly as possible.
For those trying to figure out pathways to migration for Afghans. Read for more information on the requirements for immigration relief and how to apply:
