Every early voting site in NYC will give the first 300 New Yorkers who cast ballots on THURSDAY (same day as Knicks ticker tape parade) these stickers, @BOENYC says.
MOMENTO HISTÓRICO EN EL MUNDIAL 2026 👩👦🇳🇿🌎:
Jenny Bindon y Tyler Bindon se convirtieron en la pimera dupla MADRE-HIJO en jugar una Copa del Mundo de la FIFA.
Tyler hizo su debut con Nueva Zelanda anoche en la #FIFAWorldCup a sus 21 años, en el empate ante Irán... Algo que había conseguido su madre, cuando jugó con las 'Ferns' los mundiales de 2007 y 2011.
Otra preciosa historia que nos regala el fútbol. ❤️
“For people living with chronic and life-threatening conditions, the constant fear of losing healthcare is exhausting.”
-Michelle L., NH
A new rule would exacerbate this fear. But there’s still time for Congress to stop it. Tell them to act now:

This is a portrait I painted of one of many heroes of mine from the Civil Rights movement. The Rev. James Zwerg, circa 1961. He was one of the Freedom Riders, along with John Lewis, William Barbee, Catherine Burks, and many others, who pulled into Montgomery, AL on a bus May 20, 1961.
He volunteered to step off first.
The mob was waiting with baseball bats, chains, and clubs. They beat him until three of his vertebrae cracked, his nose broke, and every tooth in his head was fractured. They beat him unconscious on the pavement. A Black stranger in coveralls walked up and said, “Stop beating that kid. If you want to beat someone, beat me.” And they did. He saved Zwerg’s life.
White ambulances refused to take him. He lay in the street for over an hour. That is the moment I painted. Bloodied suit. Head bowed.
At Martin Luther King Jr.’s urging, Zwerg later went to seminary and was ordained in the United Church of Christ.
Rev. Zwerg is now 86 and lives in Tucson, Arizona. His courage and conviction, alongside that of countless others, helped save this nation. These are the people I celebrate as we near our 250th anniversary as a nation.

.@axios DC has a good map of some of DC’s big events this summer including Capital Pride & America250.
The DC govt in me looks at this and sees $$$ for all the overtime required for MPD and DPW employees just to block streets. 🥴

““Tell Giles I figured it out and I’m ok” Well I don’t have it figured out and I’m not ok. But I know I’m the lucky one because I knew you. Thank you to Daisy and Emily who not only shared their dad with me, but with the world”
This is a smart answer from Elissa Silverman on lowering business taxes. Overspending has been somewhat papered over by increasing a tax that was implemented to pay for a specific program, and it’s a good recommendation to revert back to what’s needed to fund paid leave.
⚠️ A new policy would force many blood cancer patients, even the sickest ones, to either work or lose their healthcare coverage.
But there's still time for Congress to stop it. Tell them to act now. (It takes just 30 seconds!) ⬇️

In their release of the Medicaid work requirements rule, CMS touts an ASPE report as evidence that work requirements increase employment. In fact, the report assumes “illustrative” impacts that are “not necessarily what is or will occur in the real world”. https://t.co/4s1usdYkpH
