  1. Now the fight turns to Congress and the Courts. Tech giants will likely fight the decision. Don't give up. This is too important to democracy, politics, education, community organizing & entrepreneurship.

  2. It's going to take a little time for my dissenting statement to post on the website. In the meantime you can read it here:

    There has not been one public hearing, no opportunity to hear from economists, governors, mayors or ordinary Americans who will be impacted by this tax bill. This is a sham.

  4. And all of us have black women, black men and young people to thank for this result. Hopefully, the Democratic Party - & all of us - will remember that and represent them and their concerns more than they/we currently do.

    The end of will give ISPs more control over the flow of information. This means that your internet company could throttle or block news sites based on the political views of their investors and corporate CEOs.

  7. "Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim." - Nora Ephron, Writer/Filmmaker The Post w/Meryl Streep & Tom Hanks, addresses issues very relevant today - unaccountable gov't, importance of free press, gender equality. Film dedicated to Nora.

    My God. In 2011, Roy Moore literally said he'd like to abolish all of the Constitutional Amendments after the 10th. He then specifically targeted amendments giving rights to the formerly enslaved. And he is in the lead now in Alabama. SHAME ON AMERICA

  11. 💔 It will only "get better someday" if we ALL stand up to bullies - in our schools & communities, on social media & in politics & the White House. Keaton & every other child, teen & adult deserves to be defended against aggression. Please speak up. 💔

    In 1946-48, after defeating the fascist countries of Germany, Japan and Italy, officials from the Roosevelt/Truman administration helped write new Constitutions for these countries — and included equal rights for women in all of them! Yet we ourselves don’t have that to this day!

    Buried in the Republican tax plan are hidden provisions designed to stick it to the poor and working class while the rich and corporations get billions of dollars in breaks.

  16. For the same money, and without raising a single tax, Dems could: * Aid to Puerto Rico ($100B) * Make public colleges & universities tuition-free ($750B) * Infrastructure ($650B) Or *Cancel all student loan debt ($1.4T) Or * Expand Social Security ($1.2T)
