Without it, weβll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate changeβall so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

REGULATIONS = PROTECTIONS FOR AMERICANS, HUMANS, EARTH
DEREGULATIONS = ALLOWING CORPORATIONS TO HARM AMERICANS, HUMANS, EARTH
Regulations are what keeps ordinary Americans healthy and, often, alive.
It took spoiled meat and rodent droppings out of our food. It took harmful lead out of our gasoline and paint. It took poison out of our water.
Deregulation only achieves one goal: making rich corporations richer.
Saw that you can now buy insurance for "unexpected car repairs," and that's a real sign of the times.

Living in Minnesota right now is wondering if your patient is late because they got caught in traffic, because they got arrested, or because they got detained and all of these are perfectly plausible and equally likely.

In just a few moments, I will vote against the so-called SAVE America Act and I am a strong no. That's because this bill would place unnecessary burdens on millions of women and eligible citizens to register to vote and make their voices heard. It is un-American & undermines our democracy.

Threatening a member is DEFINITELY contempt, no grey area there.
From Minneapolis to Gaza, Chicago to the occupied West Bank, acting Jewishly means divesting from death and destruction.

It's not about preventing undocumented immigrants from voting. The sole purpose is to make it more difficult for citizens (mostly women) to vote.
