It’s now illegal in Cleveland for employers to hide how much jobs actually pay Cleveland’s new pay transparency law takes effect today.

From now on in Cleveland, employers don't hold all the cards in the hiring process. We've taken a huge step forward in making sure working people get the pay they deserve.

just took a quick look at the Grokipedia article on "Tesla Autopilot," and it's even more shockingly biased than I expected

like, it might as well have been written by Tesla's lawyers

USDA Website Blames SNAP Benefits Expiring On Trans People And Immigrants During Shutdown The benefits, which are set to expire on November 1st due to the government shutdown, will lead to millions of people struggling to secure access to food.

1. As SNAP benefits expire, 42,000,000 hungry people may turn to the USDA website.

Now, the website blames their hunger on transgender people and immigrants.

It's a cynical ploy, an an indication that anti-trans measures are a Trump priority for the shutdown.

Lia Smith was a transgender rights advocate and athlete who spoke out forcefully against this administration's policies.

Rest in peace. Every trans suicide is a murder by those in power.

If you have it please donate cash to the food banks. $10 in their hands will feed more people than the $10 worth of canned goods you can buy for retail prices. Also check on your elders. Many of them will not admit they rely on these programs so grocery gift cards or a surprise bag of staples

Since the start of the year, marijuana supporters in the Ohio House have been trying to compromise with the Ohio Senate on separate cannabis bills. The Senate wanted to make dozens of restrictions, but the Ohio House said that wasn't what the Ohioans chose.

Gov. DeWine calls Ohio Redistricting Commission meeting, though GOP map proposal is still nowhere in sight It’s widely expected that Republicans intend to hold out until November, when the state constitution allows GOP lawmakers to unilaterally redraw Ohio's congressional districts.

Gov. DeWine is convening the Ohio Redistricting Commission this week, yet there is still no proposed map. We are less than two weeks away from the October 31st deadline. 🚨

Anti-Trans Democrat Seth Moulton Booed At Boston No Kings Rally After Sen. Markey Wears Trans Flag Representative Moulton is challenging Senator Markey for his senate seat in 2026.

1. Yesterday, millions showed up to the No Kings Rally.

Perhaps no one Rally was as full of subtext as Boston's, however.

Senator Markey showed up wearing a trans pride flag. His challenger, anti-trans Dem Rep. Seth Moulton showed up to boos and jeers.
