Va. appeals court says Arlington can eliminate single-family-only zoning The Northern Virginia county’s push for more “missing middle” housing had divided its residents and was paused in response to a lawsuit from some homeowners.

REI’s Anniversary sale kicked off this past weekend, so we rallied outside REI Durham to celebrate OUR two-year union anniversary and stand up against union busting! The energy was electric, the solidarity was strong, and what’s a union rally without a working-class anthem? ✊🤠
