“The most important thing for me and also for my brother, is that his death will not be used as a justification for killing innocent people” Listen to Noi Katzman who’s Brother Chaim was buried today
“You can’t cure killed babies with more dead babies. We need peace.” The son of a missing Israeli peace activist says that his mother would be mortified by the situation in Gaza, and that vengeance is not a strategy.
The richest Americans account for 40 percent of U.S. climate emissions and "On a global scale, Feng said, there is mostly consensus that the richest 10 percent may contribute to 40 to 50 percent of the global carbon emissions based on consumption." wapo.st/3QFOzyn
This is one of the most interesting free school lunch papers - when districts implement universal free school lunch, it puts competitive pressure on grocery stores, resulting in lower food prices for *everyone* even if they don't directly benefit from school lunches

The story of a mother who sprinted, barefoot, to Robb elementary and begged to sit with her murdered 10-yr old daughter so she wouldn't be alone. Don't look away from this story. One year since Uvalde: texasmonthly.com/news-politics/…
I met my husband & many of my dearest friends in a newsroom. This speaks to me: “There were weirdos . . . and fabulous role models occasionally, and the spirit of being part of a motley entourage. Now, it’s just you and the little cursor on your screen.” nytimes.com/2023/04/29/opi…

@EM_RESUS I am a paediatric emergency physician working in Australia. I have NEVER seen a gunshot wound in a child, and have not seen a gunshot wound in anyone for over 20 years. This cause of death is the result of "choices" by politicians and the people they represent.
@EM_RESUS I’m an ER doc and worked in Vancouver’s regional trauma centre . I’ve never seen a child with gunshot wound and only 2 adults in my entire career
I just want to share some important context here which is that there are people in New York City who actually make $36,000 a year

A Black family from Georgia was pulled over in rural Tennessee for driving with 'dark tint and traveling in the left lane while not actively passing' Within hours, they had lost custody all five of their children, including a nursing baby tennesseelookout.com/2023/03/16/a-b… via @TNLookout
Our innate survival instinct assumes that with intelligence and skill, we can defend our lives against lethal threats. But what's a classroom full of kids supposed to do when there is no way to survive?

Today I interviewed an LGBT elder activist. I asked her how she felt about Pride month and she said, “It’s weird. Whenever I go to the Parade, I notice how few gay man in their 50s-70s are there. We lost so much of that generation and I feel that void every day.”
omfg. The Uvalde mom who was handcuffed before running into the school to pull a bunch of kids to safety says local law enforcement threatened to charge her with a probation violation on a 10-yr-old case if she kept talking to the media. motherjones.com/politics/2022/…
Hawaii has the lowest gun death rate in the country — Hawaii also requires permits with a mandatory 14 day waiting period, an age requirement of being 21 to buy a gun, and bans on assault weapons and magazines with more than 10 rounds.
All this to say that, in addition to mourning the dead and being sensitive to the survivors and pushing for coverage that leads to change, we need to take care of our journalists.

THREAD. Predatory prison telecom Securus has just defaulted on over $1 BILLION in debt. After years of preying on incarcerated people and their families, driving many into debt, Securus can't pay its own. Here's the story about how advocacy made this happen.
BREAKING !🚨 Predatory prison telecom Securus just defaulted on over $1Bn in debt. Despite raking in over $700M each year, Securus can no longer pay its own creditors. We published this in @theappeal today to explain how we got here and what it means. theappeal.org/securus-bankru…
Yo, it’s my last day as a staff writer at @TheOnion. I am grateful for the opportunity that I got to learn so much and work with such talented, smart people. I am not grateful for the dork-ass herb CEO of G/O media @JimSpanfeller. Here’s a thread of headlines I wrote that I love:
@GovKathyHochul And this list isn’t even exhaustive. You can see more at the link below. Link: cityandstateny.com/policy/2023/11….
All of these are sitting, untouched, on @GovKathyHochul’s desk. With the stroke of a pen she could take these laws from theory to reality. Governor, it’s time to take action.
#8 is about the price of medicine getting hiked up. This legislation would require prescription drug companies to notify the state if they intend to raise the cost of a drug 60 days before it takes effect if they plan any sort of considerable increase. spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/central-ny…
#7 is about helping you know who owns the building you live in. This bill would require the disclosure of the people behind an LLC that owns a building or property leased to the state. As we covered earlier this year, this is a big problem in New York City:…
#6 is about electric vehicle charging. This legislation would make commercial garages with electric vehicle charging stations ensure that the public has access to those charging stations.
#5 is about LLC transparency. Bill A3484A/S0995B would help combat anonymous corporate ownership, which is currently often facilitated by hiding behind shady LLCs, with a first-of-its-kind public database of LLC owners. (Bill number 7 relates to this too!)
#4 is about lobbying transparency. Bill A5786/S4152 was sponsored by Assembly Member John T. McDonald III and Senator Gianaris to require more lobbying disclosures. Right now, lobbying law does not require disclosures related to State Senate confirmation, such as nominees to…
#3: A bill protecting New Yorkers’ credit scores from medical debt. If Hochul signs, New York will be the second state where hospitals will no longer be able to pass on information about medical debt to credit reporting agencies. apnews.com/article/medica…
#2: A bill closing loopholes to rent regulations. Most notably, it closes the “Frankenstein” loophole, which landlords have exploited by combining or reconfiguring rent-regulated apartments into more expensive, sometimes unregulated units. thecity.nyc/2022/11/16/ren…
#1: A bill banning noncompete agreements, which would help workers across the state. Bill A1278-B/S3100A would prohibit most employers from enforcing noncompete agreements, which suppress workers’ wages. Unsurprisingly, Wall Street is fighting the bill, claiming it’s…
New York Governor Kathy Hochul is sitting on a pile of bills. She isn’t vetoing them, or signing them, she’s just keeping them in limbo. All of them were passed by the Democratic Assembly and passed by the Democratic Senate. But she simply isn’t making them into law. Thread.
