Concerning the tariff on Chinese EVs and solar cells

I am troubled by these tariffs on EVs and solar cell technology. While we don’t want heavily Chinese government subsidized goods to completely undercut local manufacturing and create a monopoly market for American consumers, I also feel that it is protecting American companies that are not interest

VA Executive Bonuses Should be Returned to Government

The Department of Veterans Affairs improperly approved nearly $11 million in bonuses intended for critical staffing needs, instead distributing the funds to over 180 senior executives. This misuse of funds intended to support hiring specialists to process expanded veterans benefits is unacceptable.

Stop blaming Palestine and students and blame Netanyahu

Enough is enough. Demand Israel to come to a ceasefire or divest and stop giving them assistance. Just because they are an ally does not mean they get free will to commit genocide.

Support the Right of Students to Protest

The right to protest and express dissent is a fundamental freedom in a democracy.
