Perfect reminder of how much Sen. Sampson hates cancel culture: he proposed making it illegal to teach certain subjects 🤔
Newly Filed Amendment: Shield CT students from having to learn about “Divisive Concepts.” Those concepts could include the history of race in America. ❄️ ❄️ ❄️
An utterly crushing day for Big Oil 1) Chevron investors demand emission cuts 2) Dutch court tells Shell to cut emissions by half 3) Exxon shareholders buck the company and elect directors demanding climate action. Thanks to all who fight--you push long enough and dominoes tumble

Why hasn't @FedEx figured out a better solution to the last-mile problem? This package has been within 20 mins of me for almost 2 days and still hasn't arrived. It had to go past directly me to get from Middletown to South Windsor.
