Today the #SCOTUS upheld the Indian Child Welfare Act in an opinion authored by Justice Barrett. Much of the fight has been left for another day--in that #SCOTUS declined to reach some of the thorniest issues. But ICWA survives. So much to learn here. https://t.co/OFvS2l0Laa
The midnight bill deadline has passed!!

92% of Dollar General’s employees earn less than a living wage.
They reported $3.3 billion in profit last year.
They could double every employee’s salary, except for the CEO who made $16.5 million, and still have half of a billion in profit.

The man who leads the Senate in prayer is fed up with thoughts and prayers.
Today, Senate Chaplain Barry Black's gave an honest and bold rebuke of the common empty sentiment in his opening prayer:
"Lord, when babies die at a church school, it is time for us to move beyond thoughts and prayers. Remind our lawmakers of the words of ... Edmund Burke: 'All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing.'"
Chaplain Black’s words were so necessary.
We need action. Thank you Chaplain Black for having the courage to speak out. 💙
