August 2 - The Hatch Act Enacted
On this day in Labor History the year was 1939. That was the day that the Hatch Act was enacted. The law was named after Senator Carl Hatch, a Democratic Senator from New Mexico. The Hatch Act limits political activity by federal employees. One of the reasons the law was passed was due to allegations of corruption by the Works Progress Administration.

the NYT wanted soooo badly to write a “DSA in disarray” piece but they ran into the reality that we are all genuinely committed to a big-tent socialist organization
But three minutes into any exchange with a member, nagging fears about the organization going mainstream can feel moot. Conversations are marinated in a vocabulary that is insistently obtuse.
Members talk about having disagreements in a "comradely" way, being a "multi-tendency organization," building a "big tent" group that spans everyone from
"Berniecrats" to "Marxist Leninists."

Fuck off. If anything is "millennial", it's those cool transparent colors our iMacs, Gameboys, and Tamagotchis came in. No fucking millennial likes the house flipper grey. Call it a millennial paint job when I can see through the exterior of a car because it's Glacier Purple like my GBA.
An image showing the colorful transparent plastic of various pieces of technology of the 90's and early 2000s, that were easily the popular choice of the millennial age bracket. Some of the tech is an iMac, Nintendo 64, Sega DreMcast, a PlayStation 2, a Gameboy color and Advance, and CD player.

Well if you break it down with class analysis, rural voters are just as valid in their reticence to support Dems. Republicans side with (the majority) them on social issues. And did Biden and Dems work “that hard?” Have Dems ever worked “that hard” on anything sense the new deal? Dubious

these cops are out of control. shooting at a moving car over an alleged traffic violation is indefensible.
In a fifth shooting in December, a Tennessee Highway Patrol trooper assigned to the task force opened fire at a vehicle and struck one person, after the car didn't pull over in a traffic stop.

ICE activity has increased dramatically across the metro in the last couple weeks. Masked agents are terrorizing our neighbors, profiling them based on their language and skin tone, and kidnapping them off the street. We can stop this.

this shit is odious. as i wrote on behalf of harvard law’s gender violence program to the department of education back in 2023, it was wrong for the biden administration to try to find a “middle ground” on trans sports bans. it remains wrong today.
Between unsupportive parents, expensive treatments, and harmful state policies, it is
difficult for many transgender young people to transition at all, and especially difficult to transition early enough to avoid undergoing the wrong puberty. By allowing states to use the goal of competitive fairness to distinguish between transgender student-athletes based on the timing or status of their medical transition, the Biden administration is leaving open the possibility of additional discrimination against vulnerable young people already facing obstacles.There is also every reason to believe these invasive sex verification requirements would
be discriminatorily applied. Women of color, and especially Black women, are regularly framed
as insufficiently feminine. Serena Williams is perhaps the most famous example. Throughout her career as a Black woman dominating the women's tennis world, Serena was frequently dogged by unfounded rumors that she was transgender.? In 2014, the head of the Russian Tennis Federation was fined and suspended for referring to Serena and her sister, Venus, as the
"Williams brothers" and saying looking at them was "scary. One can only imagine the lengths to which parents of opposing athletes would have gone to "verify" Serena's gender if she grew up in the current wave of anti-transgender hysteria. This is not purely hypothetical for today's
successful young athletes - a girl in Utah had her gender investigated by the Utah High School Activities Association after two parents complained about her beating their daughters "by a wide margin."2 By permitting the continued exclusion of some transgender youths from school sports, the Biden administration is reinforcing a world in which every young athlete's gender is up for debate by any nearby adult.Title IX's overarching purpose is to allow all students full access to the educational
opportunities their schools have to offer, regardless of sex. The Biden administration's proposal may have begun with this purpose in mind, but it would fail to protect access for vulnerable students. By inadequately considering the many barriers to gender affirming care, it would
permit the competition-based exclusion of many transgender young people solely because they are unable to access necessary healthcare. Its approved methods of determining sex-based eligibility and lack of clear, bright line rules would force Black girls, intersex people, and transgender students from poor or unsupportive families to bear the brunt of invasive and
exclusionary state policies. Instead, the administration should support full inclusion of
transgender athletes through high school and a return to the NCAA's 2010 framework for college
athletes.
