Through the years, Rivendell bicycles have amassed a devoted—some might say cult-like— following. The founder, Grant Petersen, just wants to preserve the craft, and delight, of cycling. https://t.co/uelFa699Em

Some people are worried about fake stories of immigrants eating Americans’ pets.

We’re more concerned about real stories of corporate interests eating away at our environment, education, health care, & voting rights.

Price gouging at the grocery store getting you down?

Big Tech’s greed is insatiable — they’re not above targeting and tracking kids online.

Today, @SenSchumer brought two bills on children’s online safety and privacy to the floor for a vote. These bills will help curb that greed and protect kids.

During Prime Day in 2019, Amazon’s rate of recordable injuries was more than double the industry average.

It’s almost like trading safety for sales can harm your workers.
