What does the Clean Air Act actually do? In short, it keeps car companies, power plants, and other polluters from poisoning your communities, families, homes, and kids. Polluters and their Republican allies want to change that. New in

Donald Trump has just released a national under 18 trans care ban executive order. I am working through specifically how it tries to do this, and will live tweet here section by section as I read through it. It is not yet on the website, but has been released via press release.

The VA has been failing to protect veterans from the abuses of contractors for years, with little, or no accountability Nothing is more exemplary of this failure than the long-standing dialysis disaster at the department. Vets deserve better
