2020/07/21 Ocasio-Cortez accosted by GOP lawmaker over remarks: ‘That kind of confrontation hasn’t ever happened to me’
“’Fucking bitch,’ [Representative Yoho] said.”
I’m choosing not to censor this quote because the brutality of these words illustrate what female lawmakers (especially of color) have to endure on a daily basis. Representative Ocasio-Cortez handled this potentially violent attack from a fellow lawmaker with class and dignity. I sincerely hope Representative Yoho is censured and removed from his committee spots.

2020/06/23 Millions of Americans will fall off an ‘income cliff’ when extra $600 in unemployment benefits ends next month
Ending the benefits now would be a “terrible idea,” Arindrajit Dube, an economics professor at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, said in a tweet. Many households have already spent the one-time stimulus check they received and unemployment is expected to remain high through 2021. Without the extra $600, benefits will revert to the standard state amount, which averaged $378 per week in March. That’s a sudden income reduction of 60%, without another stimulus check to fall back on.
