Here's Alex & the Metropolitan Mosquito Control District. Did you know they target mosquito larvae based on their digestive pH to avoid harming other insects, like pollinators? I know mosquitoes are an important part of the food web, but they can carry human diseases, too.🦟

This calls for people who register to vote or update their registration to show documentary proof of citizenship, which could be a passport or birth certificate.

US House passes bill requiring people to prove citizenship in order to vote Supporters say bill is aimed at preventing noncitizens from voting in US elections, but critics say it’s voter suppression

Both parties are NOT the SAME:
SAVE passed the GOP controlled house! On to GOP controlled Senate. HMMMM - voter suppression in the name of election security?!! Which party has committed voter fraud??! Starts with an "R"

Great time at Connect India! Chatted with some old friends, & met new friends. It was also important for me to listen to the community about their fears & concerns with the current federal administration. Thank you, Consul General Somnath Ghosh, for your words & partnership.

How is this making us great?
