NEW: The Clear Labels Act was designed to help patients and doctors see exactly where a medication was made.

But experts say the law’s most critical provisions have been cut: “It's just a clear watering down of the original bill.”
“A Clear Watering Down”: Drug Transparency Bill Stripped of Critical Provisions Ahead of Senate Vote
The bill was designed to alert consumers about where their drugs came from. After two major changes to the proposed law, experts worry it won’t be as effective.

I got the new Covid vax before leaving on my vacation to EU

I cannot tell you how MANY PEOPLE at work laughed or thought I was crazy

Each one said a form of"but aren't you afraid it's going to make you sick on vacation?"

We need the gov & public to shame stupidity

It's the only thing that works

That time when the Vice President of the United States almost had to sell his house to cover the costs of his adult son’s cancer treatment.

Just 10 years later, everyone infesting the US government is making themselves into billionaires or multimillionaires.

Maternal deaths spiked in banned states since 2022. In two years, 120 pregnant Texas women died while hospitalized or up to 6 weeks after.

Republican leaders are covering it up, refusing fix the law.

Walker didn't fall through a rare gap.

She died inside a system working exactly as designed.

Walker was 37 — a mother battling seizures, blood clots, and diabetes on top of preeclampsia.

Texas has one of the most extreme abortion bans in the country.

Doctors, afraid of prosecution, let a treatable crisis become a death sentence.

Her Death Was Avoidable

Tierra Walker begged doctors for an abortion as she deteriorated.

Over 100 doctors in Texas treated her. Not one mentioned the lifesaving treatment she needed.

Her 14-year-old son cried, screaming "I need you!"

She Died Anyway.

“You walk down the street, and you assume you’re generally safe because of the law,” he said. “It’s the rule of law. If you don’t have it, you have either anarchy or you have authoritarianism. You have Russia or you have China or you have North Korea.”

Trump offers a bribe of $5,000 in exchange for votes, the bribe is promoted as a dividend and would cost $1.2 trillion dollars. This is a felony under 18 U.S.C. § 597, bribing someone to vote a certain way is a federal crime punishable by prison.

Surely, by now, we don’t have to state the obvious anymore — right?
#OTD 25 years ago, Rep. Barbara Lee cast the sole vote against rushing to war in the days after 9/11. Although she endured terrible backlash, Rep. Lee was backed every step by broad, anti-war grassroots movements.

This is what principled leadership looks like.
