The EPA’s Syracuse Lead Water Report Proves We Were Right All Along Back in November of 2024, a coalition including the NYCLU and Families for Lead Freedom Now held a rally and press conference alerting the public to the lead water crises in Syracuse. Our press confer...

There is no safe level of lead exposure - and in Syracuse, the racial disparities are especially stark. Nearly 12% of Black children in Syracuse had elevated lead levels compared to 2% of white children.

This National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week, officials must act NOW to confront this crisis.

Mass Layoffs at HUD’s Fair Housing Office Could Cause Enforcement to Grind to a Halt The Department of Housing and Urban Development issued RIFs to 170 people in its Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity.

Ensuring HUD can effectively investigate complaints of housing discrimination and provide support to people experiencing the impacts of the nation's fair and affordable housing crisis should be a key priority at HUD.

The VRA is a tool for equal representation. On Oct. 15, SCOTUS will rehear Louisiana v. Callais, a case that could gut Section 2.

Just so everyone is clear, the main issue in the Supreme Court voting rights case tomorrow is whether it's racist against white people to enforce the Voting Rights Act.

I'm dead serious. We live in incredibly stupid times.

The great actress Diane Keaton has left us at the age of 79. Too soon to say good-bye to the woman who made us smile at the quirky Annie Hall, and who broke our hearts in Reds. Your charm and talent will be sorely missed.

Democracy Docket has a reporter in the courtroom covering the Texas redistricting hearing every single day. Meanwhile, the big legacy media is nowhere to be found.

At stake are 5 congressional seats. If this matters more than both sides journalism, become a DD subscriber today. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

This decision reinforces one of our country's core principles: The military has no place policing our communities.

VA Senators seek to stop the immediate expenditure of $85M to move the Space Shuttle from Virginia to Texas. Ultimately, the move will cost ~ $400 million. I can think of a hundred better ways to spend these tax dollars.
