If Ted Cruz went on a Sunday show and advocated for drinking more water and breathing air, I would have to re-think some things. Joking aside, the Protect College Sports Act is very American, in that it protects money. It is not pro-athlete or pro-worker. I'm writing my reps about it.

A *second* federal judge has blocked the U.S. Postal Service from implementing Trump's executive order limiting mail balloting. "Plaintiffs have demonstrated … there is an increased risk that a significant number of otherwise appropriate absentee or mail-in ballots will ultimately not be counted."

Increase in productivity since 1979: 93% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 34% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

Important to know/remember: States are generally terrible at notifying formerly disenfranchised people of their voting rights. Many have no idea they’re allowed to vote. Many more avoid voting because they’re not sure if they can. I wrote about this in Kentucky but it’s a problem all over.
