Our libraries are closed for the #Juneteenth holiday. However, as high temperatures are forecast, South Providence Library will open from Noon to 6:00PM as a Cooling Center. Stay cool, #PVD!

The top .1% stops paying into social security by January 19th. Scrapping the cap would generate up to $388 billion per year and keep Social Security solvent. Social Security is only being depleted because we refuse to make people pay their fair share.

Gilead has announced that lenacapavir, the game-changing HIV prevention drug just approved by the FDA will cost $28,218 USD per person per year. Researchers say a generic version could be made for just $25 per person a year. Capitalism kills.

The individual maximum a person can donate to a NYC mayoral candidate is $2100. Mike Bloomberg just donated $8.3 million to Andrew Cuomo through a super PAC. This is what a rigged campaign finance system, designed to let the wealthy buy elections, looks like.

On Juneteenth, we salute and honor the emancipation of enslaved African Americans. Our union organizes every day to put an end to the underground economy in construction and ensure it never returns to slave labor. The struggle for freedom for Black folks in America continues.

When NY taxed the rich, the number of millionaires *grew.* Tax flight is a right-wing myth. The only people leaving NYC in droves are working & middle-class New Yorkers who can't afford to live here.

Today, we honor Juneteenth, a powerful reminder of the ongoing journey toward freedom, justice, and equality. As an educational community, we reflect on this moment in history. Let’s continue to create spaces where equity, inclusion, and truth are central to everything we do.

In honor of Juneteenth, all our Providence Community Libraries are closed. Given the heat, however, South Providence Library remains open to serve as a “Cooling Center” for our neighbors 🫶🏾 Sure enough, when I walked in, I saw a group of kiddos enjoying the library & the AC 😎

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was passed by the U.S. Senate on this date, prohibiting discrimination based on race, color, religion, or national origin in employment, voting, & the use of public facilities. White supremacists fillbustered for 57 days, but it finally passed 71-29.

During the fight over the Iran nuclear deal, opponents clutched their pearls and expressed outrage when you said the choice was diplomacy or war. Well, now there's a war. The JCPOA worked. Diplomacy works. Democrats need to fight for diplomatic solutions to security problems.
