Johnson & Johnson (worth $400 billion) created a shell company in TX to hold all the liability for their carcinogenic baby powder, then filed for bankruptcy with the shell company. This is legal, because corporations write our laws. 38,000 women will go without a settlement

Streams that don’t run year-round and many wetlands will no longer be subject to the Clean Water Act. As a result, a wide range of industries will be free to pollute, reroute, and pave over these waterways as they see fit. https://t.co/tGVZsJtb9X

“Regenerative organic brings together the best of the soil health, fair labor, and animal welfare. In a natural ecosystem, there’s no chemical inputs: there’s a balance of plant and animal life, self-regenerating.” -David Bronner, @DrBronner. https://t.co/HFNwKa6h33

NM ranks at the bottom of student achievement, sinking to 49th in the nation. The future economic success and quality of our workforce are determined by the opportunities our children have today.
