Being white is waaay far down the list of things he should apologize for.

Please remove this. It’s been debunked, which, strangely, means it’s bunk.

Pie Charts Galore! Medicaid, CHIP, ACA & Medicare enrollment by House District (now w/high-res PDF versions!) Over the past couple of months I've compiled a master spreadsheet breaking out enrollment in ACA plans (Qualified Health Plans & Basic Health Plans), Medicaid/CHIP coverage (both traditional & via ACA...

This website is the most complete set of healthcare data for the US that I have come across. I used it to see what percentage of people in my district got their healthcare coverage from the ACA or Medicaid. Hopefully this vast trove of data will be useful to someone!

Some personal news: the Department of Homeland Security has given me, an immigration lawyer born in Newton, Massachusetts, seven days to leave the U.S. Does anyone know if you can get Italian citizenship through great-grandparents?

Disruption is all they seem to understandβ€”so that’s exactly what they’re getting. For 14 hours, @booker.senate.gov has been on the Senate floor, speaking truth within the rules. This cannot be business as usual when our democracy’s on the line. Thank you, senator.

All these years I’ve been wearing glasses, not realizing that 20/700 vision was actually β€œperfect”. I apologize to you, God, but I really wanted to be able to see more than a foot in front of my face.

Hey, everyone!

Here are some of my favorite online markets to use instead of Amazon:

etrailer.com - DIY products, RV focused
bhphotovideo.com - Tech products, Jewish owned
chewy.com - everything pets, including prescriptions
bookshop.org - buy books, support local bookstores

Share yours below!

There should be more recognition of the fact that Ukraine surrendered it’s enormous stock of nuclear weapons in return from assurances from the US that it would be kept safe from Russian invasion by the Western Alliance. Why should any ally trust us again?

I am old enough to remember when Jimmy Carter had to sell his family’s peanut farm because of conflict of interest with agricultural policies. Compare and contrast.
