Harris/Walz will give fourth graders free lunches, while Trump/Vance will force them to give birth. — It’s as simple as that.

Archbishop Wenski wrote an op-ed about the need to change the migration narrative. bit.ly/3RV8gTo Migrants are vulnerable to human trafficking but changes in legislation such as reducing wait times for work permits can make a difference. #FactFriday #EndHumanTrafficking

Women religious are long-time leaders to help #EndHumanTrafficking. They educate the public about human trafficking, accompany survivors on their journey to healing and work to address the root causes of human trafficking, such as migration. #WorldDayAgainstTraffickingInPersons

How many months in a row do #WallStreet #economists get to be wrong before they find a new line of work? Maybe we should spend more time understanding what is happening rather than predicting future. finance.yahoo.com/news/april…

This is one of the features of America’s commitment to cruel #capitalism. We have plenty of resources to care for all our brothers and sisters. We choose to hoard them rather than be kind.
Replying to @CommunitySolsED
One thing to keep in mind, almost everyone who goes into a skilled nursing facility or possibly an assisted living facility for any length of time will exhaust their financial resource and end up on #Medicaid; only the wealthy will escape this reality

While there are many reasons for why health equity eludes our country, the main factor is racism,” writes @JoshundaSanders. How can we address this problem? Let’s start by listening to the lived experience of Black people. 👇 rwjf.ws/3XgLwwk

How do we address the black-white wealth gap? Insurers, bankers and others with power need to stop being #racist. Simple answer from @FlitterOnFraud @TheCityClub with @_DanielleSydnor #equity #justice
