Give this podcast about the Roadless Rule rollback a listen. Then urge your members of Congress to co-sponsor and pass the Northern Rockies Ecosystem Protection Act. >>> wildernesswatch.salsalabs.org/nrepa-2025/i...
submit comments to tell them to KEEP THE ROADLESS RULE www.regulations.gov/search?akid=...
Hey, if you care at all about public forests, clean water, or wildlife in Alaska, Idaho, Montana, or Wyoming - CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES, tell them to oppose the Roadless Rule Rescission, tell them to support the Roadless Rule Conservation Act! 92% of the Tongass National Forest is Roadless area.
Be sure to post a comment to the Roadless Rule regulation that's being gutted by the administration - only 2 weeks to respond. You know the GOP will never vote for S2042 - a tidal wave of comments on the rule itself MIGHT change the decision to kill the Rule. www.regulations.gov/search?akid=...
BILL UPDATE: S.2042: Roadless Area Conservation Act of 2025 ACTION: Read twice and referred to the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources. #congress
U.S. Sec. of Agriculture Brooke L. Rollins announced plans to rescind the U.S. Forest Service’s 2001 Roadless Rule - putting over 150,000 acres of WNC's forests at risk. Contact your reps today and urge them to support the Roadless Area Conservation Act (RACA): act.sierraclub.org/actions/Nati...
Just left a comment to help protect against wildfires by not canceling the Roadless Rule. More information in the article in the thread, and you can act using the link in the first skeet.
The Roadless Rule is absolutely vital to protect wild areas against fires and destruction by machinery. The vast majority of fires begin near roads. www.regulations.gov/search?akid=... the public comment period to a mere 14 days. Tell them to keep the Roadless Rule and protect against fires.
Ditto.
We want to give a big shout-out to Palm Beach Gardens, New York City, Boston, Los Angeles, Houston, Albuquerque, Cleveland, and Greensboro! Thank you for showing up today and making your voices heard! 💚✊

Texas hates education. Apparently they’re so homophobic they now enable the public to get teachers and librarians arrested for providing educational materials. Sure sounds like they’ve regressed to the point of no return. www.texasstandard.org/stories/texa...

Truly vile
This is just sad. We’ve posted about this before. Now here is what is going down. The rainbow crosswalk at the Pulse memorial in Orlando (created to honor the 49 lives lost in the 2016 shooting) has now become the target of state enforcement.
Today, we carry forward the legacy of countless brave individuals who began the fight for workers' rights long ago. Billionaires are destroying democracy, but they are the few—we are the many. This Labor Day, we show how we fight back, by building people power. Find a protest at MayDayStrong.org.

Difference between a husky and border collie... 👀😅🤣 #dog #dogday #bluesky
Omgosh I didn’t wait long enough to watch the last part…. Hysterical! Great herding by the border collie of course!!!!
Yep, husky just keeps on truckin! Oh wait, is that a treat bag you’re waving? Oh ok I’ll come back to have some…
All of them.
Donald Trump's health care cuts are going to be catastrophic. First, Americans will see their premiums skyrocket, and millions will be priced out of coverage. Then, millions will lose Medicaid, and hospitals will begin to close. Democrats are fighting to repeal these cuts.
Resistance is NOT futile.
If you enjoy… Weekends Safe working conditions Retirement benefits Paid vacations Breaks at work Sick leave Paid holidays … then you’re part of the labor movement. Happy Labor Day.
People forget or don’t even know the only reason they’re not working in dangerous sweatshops 6 or 7 days a week is Unions.
Weekends. The 40-hour work week. Sick days. That didn't just happen. Organized labor did that. And today, we celebrate how far we've come. And how far we've yet to go to build an economy – and a country – that works for working people.

The judge spurned the Trump administration's expedited removal policy, calling out their violation of immigrants' rights in a mad dash to carry out President Trump's mass deportation agenda. We celebrate this victory and we'll keep fighting to defend immigrants' fundamental right to due process.

💚💚 We stand with & support our brave EPA colleagues who took the courageous step to sign a public Declaration of Dissent to their administrator. They do this BECAUSE of their commitment to protecting the environment and American people. Tonight, the EPA illegally fired many of the public signers.
Gavin Newsom is exactly right, Trump is doing everything we told you he would do and more. It's time to wake the hell up, America. Authoritarianism is here.

KKKaroline Leavitt refers to Dr. Monarez as “Ms. Monarez.” For women with a doctoral degree (not an MD), this is extremely offensive coming from a woman whose biggest accomplishment seems to be suckling from the teat of a weird man-baby with cankles and horcrux hands. #sexism #tradidiots
Trump’s Big Ugly Law killed ACA premium tax credits. Starting next year, premiums will increase by an average 75% – or more. We’re talking hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars more per month. People can’t afford Trump's America.

Sand batteries are literally just silos of sand that retain heat exceptionally well -- so well that they can be tied to heat exchange systems to serve as proxy *electrical* batteries. Finland's new model can store enough power (100 MWh) to heat an entire town for a week. newatlas.com/energy/large...
Another example of how incredibly stupid every single person in this administration is.
This is so so very wrong. No one will ever be able to trust the US.

Union! Union! Power to the workers!
California lawmakers reach an agreement with Uber and Lyft that will open the door for app-based drivers to form unions. This is a victory for organized labor that could lay the groundwork for similar efforts in other states.

Trump is attempting more ILLEGAL cuts to government investments, trying to push Congress to the side entirely. This is a brazen attempt to steal Congress's power to be YOUR voice on taxpayer spending. Trump does NOT have a line-item veto, much less a retroactive one.
Is there anything more petty, vindictive, and just plain unAmerican than weaponizing personal safety as a partisan privilege against political opponents? How is having a president with the emotional maturity of a toddler good for our country?

The Department of Homeland Security is reportedly barring states and organizations that receive government funds from helping undocumented immigrants. This will make it harder for the most vulnerable people to get help in the aftermath of disasters. It was always about cruelty.
A message for JD Vance and anyone else in this Administration that is pretending they care about the safety of our kids. They don’t. All they care about is the political approval and profits of the gun industry. And they show it every day.

Trump's attempting to fire Lisa Cook to turn the Federal Reserve into the "Central Bank of Trump." The Fed makes decisions based on economic data—not political pressures. This move would undermine the world's confidence in our economy and harm working people. And it is illegal.
When Republicans cut Medicaid, they cut funding to hospitals. When they cut hospital funding, they cut critical hospital staff. When they cut hospital staff, it puts lives at risk. Just another consequence of the GOP's Big Ugly Bill.
