Rep. Stansbury: all communities deserve access to healthcare

Our communities deserve access to healthcare.

That means ensuring there are pipelines for doctors, nurses, and others to serve. This is especially true in Tribal communities. So grateful for Dr. Adriann Begay, a leader and mentor who came to help us reintroduce our new bill.

Happy Pride! Every day, we celebrate the people and places in our community. Earlier this month, we visited Snapdragon Tea to hear their story and celebrate their success as a local LGBTQ+ business in Albuquerque!

If Harvard is committing β€œideological capture” (not a thing, and CERTAINLY not Federal Law), what do you call what Liberty University, Oral Roberts University, Ohio Christian University and bible/right-leaning schools are doing?

Or is it only bad when it’s not YOUR ideology?

Fucking hypocrites.

This is the ICE thug who arrested Newark Mayor Ras Baraka on public property (the sidewalk) for β€œtrespassing.”

Make him famous because β€œjust following orders” isn’t an excuse for violating the U.S. Constitution.

🚨🚨🚨BREAKING NEWS: Was just passed this from a fellow service academy grad. A Coast Guard Academy graduate posted this. They are reporting that ICE entered base housing and took a USCG spouse. I can’t confirm this but I’m calling for answers from the Coast Guard and Congress. This is unacceptable.

Thought for the Day: If you live in a state with elections today, go vote. Vote for your children/grandchildren. Yourselves.The citizens of your states. Voting is the responsibility of citizens so that we get a say in our government. Take a friend. Celebrate democracy before it's gone. Just do it!

Note to editors and producers: If an executive order demands action that is illegal or outside of the president’s authority, then you should not describe it as ordering something. You should say it seeks to achieve some outcome and then note it is illegal or beyond the power of the president.

Can You Fool A Self Driving Car?
YouTube video by Mark Rober Can You Fool A Self Driving Car?

Elon Musk doesn't want you or his investors to see this video.

It would piss him off bigly if you shared it because Tesla's already in something of a death spiral.

By the way, it's a fantastically interesting video & includes Space Mountain technology & Disney secrets.

West Ada teacher stands firm after she’s told to remove β€˜Everyone is welcome here’ signs Sarah Inama said she was told by administrators that her signs β€œdon’t allow people to express differing opinions.”

A teacher in Idaho has been told to remove posters reading "Everyone is welcome here" - specifically because it features different skin tones. As I wrote last week, this is a global political movement that has explicitly set the goal of eradicating the very concept of equality.
