Pregnancy in America is starting to feel like a crime. The ripple effects of the fall of Roe extend far beyond abortion. Imagine you’re eight months pregnant, and you wake up in the middle of the night to a bolt of pain across your belly. Terrified you might be losing your pregnancy, you rush to the emergency room — only to be told that no one there will care for you, because they’re worried they could be accused of participating in an abortion. The staff tells you to drive to another hospital, but that will take hours, by which time, it might be too late.

Despite promising to change their algorithms to stop promoting ethnic and political violence there is no long term objective evidence that this has happened.

Facebook Tried to Make Its Platform a Healthier Place. It Got Angrier Instead. Internal memos show how a big 2018 change rewarded outrage and that the CEO resisted proposed fixes. Although Facebook-Instagram keeps promising to change, long term their algorithms have kept amplifying polarizing misinformation to American voters because per whistleblowers this makes Facebook-Instagram more money. Congress should investigate Facebook-Instagram for election fraud.

As millions struggle with home prices, housing becomes a top issue for voters. Housing policy and funding is largely a local issue.

The impact of Dobbs being overturned, which on paper gave states the right to decide their own rules on abortion, has spiraled into all-out bans and attempted restrictions on everything from fertility treatment to birth control and miscarriage management. Advocates and labor unions have planned protests to demonstrate that women in the workforce matter and workers rights are reproductive rights.
