ICE = SS

I’m sickened that another person has been shot by ICE (https://substack.com/redirect/a02bdb78-7ce1-4f1c-aee3-8f03fc970364?j=eyJ1IjoiNm1seXYifQ.otOmJiKbuVjJchpYlNRHfEdUeScpGrrwie9zwfsSQuI).

A note of gratitude for the only N.J. senator who cares.

Good morning! I’d just like to personally thank you for all you do. It must be very difficult to get anything done when your colleagues accomplish so little.

Stop deregulating power plants

No to White House control of NIH grant review and funding! Placing scientific grants under White House, or political control, threatens, the integrity, objectivity, and innovation of research. Critics, scientist, and lawmakers agree that shifting funding decisions from independent expert to politica

Hakeem Jeffries needs to wake up and step down for meeting with Jared Kushner. Incompetent and incomprehensible move. He plainly doesn’t represent the democratic populace. He needs to get a clue and resign. Thanks for reading.

In case you’ve forgotten, YOU work for US… and we WILL fire you. 🤷‍♀️

I don’t know about you, but I’m LOVING these new anti-Tom Kean commercials- especially the one that says “who?” They’re brilliantly funny and pathetically accurate.

Good morning- to those of us who have not yet drunk the Trump kool-aid nor have yet to be affected by unjust politics in the United States of America thus far… The N.J. attorney general seems to believe that the Roxbury warehouse purchased by ICE as a detention center but deemed unfit to be one… yo

Regulate AI; No More Bombs for Israel

I’m deeply concerned about the unfettered growth of AI. It needs to be regulated and slowed down; there is no time to wait. I am concerned about its capacity to end humanity, but more immediately I worry about its growing capacity to hack into sensitive systems, to sweep up Americans’ data, and to s

No More Weapons for Israel

I understand Trump wants to send another $2.8B worth of bombs to Israel. Please support a bill like the Block the Bombs Act in the House, which would proactively block the Trump administration from delivering the major weapons Israel has used in its mass killing of Palestinians— bombs, tank rounds,

Please oppose H.R. 8330 at Wednesday’s House Judiciary markup. H.R. 8330 is a dangerous bill that would give Big Oil total immunity from efforts to hold them accountable for fueling the climate crisis. No industry should be above the law — especially Big Oil.

NO on CLARITY Act

I urge you to filibuster and stop the CLARITY Act when it comes up for a vote in the Senate this week.
