New renderings of the Flyers & Sixers arena caused a stir this week. Fans say the Flyers’ rendering missed one key detail: female fans. What ensued was a 'Where’s Waldo?' level of analysis from the internet. The Flyers have since updated the rendering: share.inquirer.com/xfWifR

Flyers update arena rendering after fans say women were left out of the first version
A rendering of the future Flyers arena didn't show any obvious female fans, critics said. The team updated the rendering on Thursday. But online, a larger discussion about women fans loomed.

Last week, the I AM ALS community sent 3,000+ emails to the Senate. This week, we gained 4 new Senate cosponsors. That's what advocacy can do. 💙 Let's keep the pressure on until ACT for ALS reaches the Senate floor. Ask your Senators to reauthorize it: bit.ly/fundALS

Mail-in voting is under attack. Here's what you can do
The USPS is proposing a rule that would require states to share information about voters who request mail-in or absentee ballots for federal elections.

The average family caregiver spends $7,242 or 26% of their annual income caring for their family member. For ALS caregivers, that number skyrockets to $85,000 to $250,000 a year. Caregivers need more support, now. #ProgressisPersonal
