Ah yeah because having another $300 bill added back into my monthly budget will make dealing with inflation easier???
Iowans in 16 counties this wk told me they’re hurting from 2 yrs of record-high inflation — the last thing they needed was a half-trillion dollar check to pay off the Biden admin student loan transfer. The reality of that plan is not only fiscally insane, it’s unconstitutional

I feel so bad that these young women have been lied to about our trans sisters. The threat to women’s sports isn’t women participating in them. It’s misogyny resulting in unequal funding, pay, and protection.

1. It’s only been two days and they’re pulling this. 2. Tying health insurance to employment is so cruel.
John Deere is cutting off 10,000 workers (and their families') health insurance on October 27th. They could just as easily *not* do this, but they want to break the strike.
Also: Congress let COBRA subsidies expire on October 1, putting workers on the hook for thousands of $$$.
