1. Buried in North Carolina's 600+ page budget is a little-noticed provision that creates a secret police force, controlled by Republicans, with extraordinary powers

This week, we remember the landmark 504 sit-ins. 46 years ago, disabled activists demanded regulatory action by occupying US Department of Health, Education, and Welfare offices across the county.

I'm tired of Republicans saying things like "If you want to ban AR-15's then why don't we ban cars since cars kill more people." Here's why this argument actually proves why we need more Gun Laws:

- Cars require a registration.
- Drivers need a license to use them.
- Drivers require insurance in case their car kills/injures someone.
- There are 100's of safety restrictions on cars before they are road-ready.
- A car user needs to pass a test to drive it.
- They also need to take a course in most states.
- There are dozens of restrictions based on age, health, etc.
- You can lose your right to drive a car if you don't use it properly.
- Cars are illegal to use when drunk.

Yes! This is critically important in New York State - thank you you to @votejgr!

[Jessica González-Rojas (votejgr.bsky.social) @votejgr]

We cannot waver on defending 340B. It ensures that our BIPOC and low-income communities can access meds, housing & transportation support. I know the @NYSA_Majority knows this.

Without 340B 100 NY Hospitals & community providers are at risk. It's time to repeal the carve-out!

End #HIVCriminalization laws, which
undermine public health efforts by deterring
people from #HIV testing/treatment, stigmatizing
people living with HIV & the most impacted incl POC, women, LGBTQ ppl, sex workers, &
the formerly incarcerated.

Decriminalize STIs & HIV in New York! Pass A3347 the Repeal STI Discrimination Act! #EndtheStigma

[CHLP @hivlawandpolicy]

Stop criminalizing health status by punishing NYers with STIs for having sex. Transmission, disclosure, consent, protection, none of them matter...face up to one year in prison and a $1000 fine. Decriminalize STIs & HIV. Pass A3347 the Repeal STI Discrimination Act! #EndtheStigma

Free NuShawn Williams now!

[Peter Staley 🇺🇦 @peterstaley]

Dear @NewYorkStateAG @TishJames: why are you keeping an HIV+ Black man in prison 13 years after he completed a 12-year sentence for crimes committed in his teens? Remember how Rudy Giuliani branded NuShawn Williams back then? #FreeNuShawn
