.@CTIA CEO Ajit Pai kicks off the #CTIASummit by remarking that AI will soon be native (built in) to hardware devices like our phones as well as the networks themselves (6G). Lots of implications here! Also props to CTIA for providing live ASL interpretation.

Google’s market cap is bigger than the entire U.S. media sector combined. It’s troubling to see them flex that muscle to limit diverse communities’ access to trusted news sources. This is unchecked monopoly power in action.

We're suing on behalf of @JACL_National, @OCANational, @SierraClub and @UCSUSA — member organizations directly suffering the consequences of Elon Musk and DOGE's unconstitutional actions.

[Sierra Club @SierraClub]

BREAKING: Campaign Legal Center, Union of Concerned Scientists, Organization of Chinese Americans, Japanese American Citizens League, and Sierra Club have filed a lawsuit challenging Elon Musk and DOGE's unlawful and devastating funding and staffing cuts to the U.S. National Park Service and Forest Service.

“American families are already feeling the effects of Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s careless and illegal cuts to our federal workforce," said Sierra Club Executive Director @BenJealous. "Firefighters and forest management staff have been dismissed as families remain on edge from the threats wildfires pose. Families wanting to enjoy our national parks, forests and monuments are being welcomed with closed signs, long lines, and unmaintained trails–before the parks’ busiest season has yet to begin."

OCA supports Ryan Y. Park for the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals. As NC’s Solicitor General with prestigious clerkships and an exemplary background, Park’s confirmation would bring vital expertise and historic representation as the first Asian American judge on the 4th Circuit.

We must stand together and in solidarity with our Black American communities to combat these injustices.

As police brutality and gun violence continues to disproportionately disparage communities of color, in light of recent news, OCA deeply condemns the unjustified violence leading to the murder of Sonya Massey on July 6 and the murder of Yong Yang on May 2.
