Are you telling me that after Florida Republicans made it almost impossible to sue your insurance company, those companies are deciding to not pay claims now instead of doing the right thing? Because that sounds... exactly like what Florida Republicans knew would happen.

After #JohnsonVGrantsPass, wins like this remind us that we need #housingnothandcuffs to address homelessness.
National Homelessness Law Center@homeless_law21 Oct 2024
BIG WIN: Fed Court rules San Diegans can't be ticketed for living in their cars when they have nowhere else to go. As Penny Helms says, “You can't get rid of homelessness without creating homes.” We are proud to have played a small role in this victory. loom.ly/fTRm4mI

Ban on San Diegans living in vehicles suspended following court settlement

Thousands of dollars worth of tickets will now be waived, and major improvements will be made to Mission Valley's safe parking site.

“Florida has no laws on crane safety during high winds, not even for hurricanes. In fact, lawmakers banned cities and counties from passing rules themselves — at the urging of construction lobbyists.” Must-read by @ZackSampson @BetsBarnes @Colleen_Wright tampabay.com/hurricane/2024/…

A crane collapsed in Hurricane Milton. Authorities aren’t investigating

Lawmakers years ago banned cities and counties from overseeing crane safety in storms. Local officials want change.

Developers, landlords, phony “housing advocates” who are really just developer PR, lobbyists, even people who run shelters… Everyone is gaining from the housing crisis EXCEPT tenants and unhoused ppl.

Harris has proposed giving $6,000 (via refundable tax credit) to families in the 1st year of a baby's life. Flint, Michigan has been doing exactly that for the past year. The results are incredible: -Fewer babies born with low birthweight -No families evicted in baby 1st year -Less hunger -Fewer moms smoking -A sense of "hope" among parents

It always works extremely well to just directly reduce child poverty, and the younger the bigger the lifelong impact. I wish there was more focus on expanding the child tax credit for kids older than 1 though. scottsantens.com/one-year-af…

Rural America is more than white, conservative, or Republican. It also consists of Black folks who have power. Black rural voters have consistently voted for the Democratic Party at rates of 90% or more. Why is their influence often invisible? NEW: capitalbnews.org/rural-black…

The Powerful, Unsung Role Black Rural Voters Can Play in Our Elections

Their impact shows up in local and state elections, and while there’s a desire for national influence, increased efforts to suppress their vote poses obstacles.

Happy Indigenous Peoples Day! Just a reminder that Native Americans are not a historical people, that we are still here, and that the biggest injustice in U.S. history—the dispossession of land from Indigenous nations largely by fraudulent treaties—remains ongoing

#Florida @GovRonDeSantis accuses Pinellas County of locking its main dump over the weekend, requiring state troopers to open its gate by force while trying to clear debris ahead of Milton. Turns out they went to the WRONG entrance. tampabay.com/hurricane/2024/… via @lmower3

DeSantis’ story of a locked Pinellas landfill is missing context

The site was open and operational and under state control, a county spokesperson said.

Kenny Johnson had been begging for something to be done about BioLab since before the latest fire that spewed toxic gasses all over the Atlanta metro area. He died shortly after speaking at this meeting. The GBI is investigating his death.

Soil and water conservation representative is speaking now. First Black man elected to this position. States that EVERY Rockdale resident needs to go to the doctor to get checkups- because the chemicals handled at biolab "will kill you."

Editorial: Amendment 2 could wreak havoc with #Florida’s habitat and wildlife, so vote no. orlandosentinel.com/2024/10/…

Endorsement: Amendment 2 could wreak havoc with Florida’s habitat and wildlife

The Sentinel endorses a “no” vote on the Florida constitutional amendment about hunting and fishing, whose convoluted wording gives the state too much power.
