Yesterday a diverse coalition of people and organizations came together to support Palestinian peace activist Mohsen Mahdawi as he continues to be targeted by ICE for exercising his right to free speech. We mustn't let up the fight. #freespeechforall @mhughesrob.bsky.social @giligetz.bsky.social

It’s outrageous that Sec. Kennedy is trying to fire the CDC Director — after only a few weeks on the job — for her commitment to public health & vaccines.

The Sen. HELP Committee must hold a hearing with Kennedy & the CDC Director as soon as possible.
