Sign the Petition Demand the Release of Rodney Taylor from ICE Detention

ICE has been holding a disabled Black man for a year!

Rodney Taylor is a double amputee who was days away from receiving new prosthetic legs when ICE took him.

Heโ€™s been denied his prosthetics & placed in solitary.

His health is declining.

Public outrage might save his life.

Say his name:

Museum-led repatriation of Second World War human remains: the case of Preben Holger Larsen - Science Museum Group Journal

Super proud of this one - sometimes in museums we get to do the right thing & correct a historical wrong.

Honoured to have played a part in returning Preben Holger Larsen's remains to Denmark, and I hope sharing our methods helps other museums follow difficult research threads.

Alitoโ€™s Oil Investments Pollute Contractor Accountability Case Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito has not recused himself from a case that could stop states from holding federal contractors accountable for climate damage and other malfeasance.

How does one party โ€œwithdrawingโ€ clear the conflict when the judge knows the partyโ€™s interest was so obvious that it became a party?

INDEFENSIBLE CRUELTY will be the stain that the Dictator in the WH & the Republican Party co-conspiring/aiding & abetting him will *never* be rid of.

WE will make sure of it.

Again, I ask: who does this remind you of? A madman playing sick hunger games for political/personal gain?

WRONG is WRONG.

The World Is Failing to Slow the Loss of Its Forests

Despite an international pledge to halt the destruction of forests by 2030, the world continues to lose around 20 million acres a year, an area roughly the size of Ireland.

A new report warns that forests globally "remain in crisis."

A record 29% โ€” nearly a third! โ€” of all new cars purchased in California during July, August, and September were zero-emission vehicles.

DC may be fine with selling out American innovation to China, but California will keep charging ahead toward cleaner air for our communities.

Education Department wipes out special ed office in shutdown layoffs, union says The Education Department laid off nearly everyone at the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services.

The end of federal enforcement of special ed laws. Some states - including MN - will likely be ok. But a lot of disabled kids in a lot of states are going to lose the education that federal law and decades of jurisprudence say they are owed.
