Fact 1: Abbott is rushing Trump’s discriminatory map through #txlege before a single flood bill is even heard in committee.

Fact 2: Abbott has all the power he needs to provide immediate relief but hasn’t.

Fact 3: shameful to use footage of a tragedy in a political attack ad.

mRNA technology didn’t appear overnight. it is the result of DECADES of research - now driving some of the most promising advances in cancer, HIV, and rare disease. It is precise, fast, and adaptable - and yes - revolutionary. And it is now very much being dismantled.

The difference between Republicans and Democrats in Texas right now:

Republicans will trample on your constitutional rights to hold on to political power.

Democrats will risk losing their own political power to protect your constitutional rights.

In its simplest terms, the apparent demise of #USAID is the result of the world's richest man ending a program that helps millions of poor people. You don't need a Ph.D. in moral theology to see why this is an evil. You can just read Jesus's parables on the rich and the poor.

Fire Elon Musk.

Use every legislative, judicial, and public pressure tactic at our disposal until we get it done.

@CbzManagement If this is true, then why are you avoiding summons by the city? Show your face and answer the charges publicly other than behind a Twitter account.

[Shit Nonprofits Say @nonprofitssay]

We support the rights of diverse working communities to labor in dignity.

But if our own employees unionize, they’re f-ing dead.

[Shit Nonprofits Say @nonprofitssay]

We are change agents.

Also, we’re nonpartisan, apolitical, non-confrontational, and we don’t file lawsuits.

UPDATE: Denver City Council voted 13-0 in support of referring collective bargaining rights for Denver City & County workers to the Nov ballot!! #copolitics

Who wants to give the board member a ride to the airport?

[Absolute deep space silence.]

Friendly reminder about our mandatory all-staff Teams call at noon today on employee burnout. Please read all the materials, especially the 6,000-word HBR article, and have your “personal stories” prepared for the small-group breakouts. And remember, cameras on!

If your version of Christianity wants to put the Ten Commandments in schools but take free lunch out of them, you are worshipping something other than Jesus.

We’re not talking real money here, just staff time.

NEW. Someone, presumably a staffer, left a folder full of briefing documents on TED CRUZ donors in the Senate Refectory.
