Statement by NGA President & CEO Greg Ferrara on Proposed Cuts to SNAP Funding and Impact on American Jobs: "NGA is deeply concerned by the cuts and programmatic cost shift changes SNAP outlined in the House Committee on Agriculture's latest budget proposal. Independent grocers—often the only

Looks like the CFPB is dropping a requirement that Toyota’s finance arm pay $48 million to customers it had harmed, per a 2023 agreement with the bureau under the Biden admin.

The click-to-cancel rule was set to go into full effect this week, requiring that firms make it as easy to cancel a subscription as it is to sign up. Firms had 6+ months to come into compliance. But the new FTC is giving them more time to keep trapping people in subscriptions.

On the left is what Apple tells developers their apps are going to look like if they add support for alternative payment systems. On the right is what Apple actually shows. Would love to see all the “make it more scary” internal communications that led to this:

A U.S. household now needs to earn $114,000 annually to afford a median-priced home. That's up 70.1% from $67,000 just six years ago, per Realtor com

Not true! One of the most significant actions of Lina Khan’s FTC was cracking down on incumbent pharma companies using FDA patent regs to block competition in the inhaler market. That’s why last year inhaler prices dropped from $500+ to $35 for millions of Americans. Abundance!

.@govofco vetoed SB5. But we're not backing down. In 2026, we're bringing a "just cause" ballot initiative to protect Colorado workers from unjust termination by preventing employers from firing without a documented reason. #coleg Full release: seiu105.info/wpaveto

If more people understood what LLMs do a basic level - predict the next word in a string with no underlying “reasoning” as to why that word makes sense - this would be less frequent. But now the Chicago Sun-Times is sending people to look for a non-existent Andy Weir book.

In March, Trump illegally tried to fire FTC commissioners Alvaro Bedoya & Rebecca Kelly Slaughter, violating the long-standing independence and nonpartisanship of an agency created to protect the American people — not corporate interests and cronies. Now, they’re fighting back.

Disturbing behavior from FTC. This lawsuit would’ve protected families from paying higher prices at the grocery store and stopped conduct that squeezes small businesses and communities across America. Dismissing it is a gift to giant retailers as they gear up to hike prices.

Trump's "big beautiful bill" has a carveout for Big Tech — it would stop states from doing anything to regulate AI for the next 10 years. It would be a disaster for workers, and a gift to Silicon Valley billionaires.

I wish someone would learn about Boeing’s operations like Pat Ryan 🇺🇸 grabbed UnitedHealth or Rep. Josh Riley grabbed utilities. It’s a major national crisis! Talk about messaging if you want but no one trusts us for a reason!

A non prosecution agreement for greed that killed hundreds of people is the height of fecklessness. The admin talks a good game on economic populism. But when the rubber meets the road, it’s perp walks + the full might of the state coming down on regular people vs. hugs and
