Moving beyond efforts to block expansion of health care for the poor and disabled, Republican governors in 15 states are now rejecting a new, federally funded summer program to give food assistance to hungry children.

The program is expected to serve 21 million youngsters starting around June, providing $2.5 billion in relief across the country.

      If you can, do more than vote: volunteer and give money to campaigns.

      I recommend picking out close races to work on. Besides president, there are a ton of house, senate, and state-level races to be involved with.

      I was thinking with the fauci hearings how insane it is that we have so many folks that vote for these guys.
