Guess who hears the case over whether our public tax $$ should fund private schools? THE OHIO SUPREME COURT. Guess who has 3 seats up this Nov, the elections for which could flip control for the first time since 1988? THE OHIO SUPREME COURT. Elect Stewart, Donnelly, Forbes.

The Biden administration tried to get Congress to expand the Child Tax Credit, but was unable to do so because of opposition from Sen. Joe Manchin and all Senate Republicans There were lots of articles about this at the time, some of which I wrote

Appointing Lina Khan is one of the best things the Biden admin has done and she should be pushed through the Senate no matter what.

Grievance politics and vibes-based politics are wild because the Biden/Harris administration literally bailed out the Teamsters Union's pension fund by $35.6 billion, and they still won't vote for Harris.

The Biden-Harris admin bailed out the Teamsters to the tune of 36 BILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS and the Teamsters decide to stay neutral in this election. What does that tell you about the Teamsters?

Sean O’Brien has been boosting Republicans all year while supporting anti-worker, anti-choice Senate candidates. Meanwhile, Kamala Harris cast the tie-breaking vote to save Teamster pensions nationwide. Listen to your local. They know the score. Thank you California Teamsters Public Affairs Council

A whole lot of people are opining on Lina Khan's fate without knowing that she doesn't have to be confirmed again to remain FTC chair. And it goes beyond just her. Harris may need a contingency plan for every role in her government amid a hostile Senate: prospect.org/politics/2024-…

This is always my favorite media scare tactic. “The strike is costing a lot of money!!” Yes. You’ve almost figured out the point.

The NY-14 Teamsters mentioned here have actually voted overwhelmingly to endorse Harris-Walz. Just as Teamsters in Michigan, Nevada, and Pennsylvania have, too. It’s a big thing to be wrong about. So let’s set the record straight: Teamsters Local 202 are all in for Harris.💪🏽💙

A twist in the Teamsters story: Teamsters leadership has cited the Biden administration's role in preventing rail workers from striking in 2022 as a reason for their non-endorsement of Harris. The Teamsters affiliates that represent rail workers have just endorsed Harris.

Major lawsuit from the FTC today targeting corporate pharma middlemen whose rebate scheme is part of the reason why the price of insulin has gone up over 1200% in the last two decades.

On the one hand, Harris is basing her campaign on lowering drug prices and IN PARTICULAR lowering insulin prices. And Lina Khan just sued the companies responsible for raising insulin prices. On the other hand, Wall Street is very upset. prospect.org/health/2024-09…

Senator Jon Tester (@senatortester) 's Twitter Profile Photo

A lot of folks said it couldn’t be done, but I took Big Pharma head-on and voted to cap the cost of insulin for Montana seniors. Now we’ve got to crack down on PBM middlemen who continue to jack up prices, and I'm glad to see the FTC is moving to hold them accountable.

Red-state Dem in a huge fight for re-election tying himself to Lina Khan's FTC to bolster his record. Reid Hoffman DOES NOT APPROVE

I mean Trump himself repeatedly touts that he overturned Roe v Wade and that it’s something that “everyone” wanted to have happen for decades (which is not true).
