The #health #legislative advisor I'm working with has a border collie she brings to the office semi-regularly, and he's so quiet and well behaved, and just sneaks behind you, I've already joked he'd make a great CIA agent.

11 states exclude #Medicaid from covering #genderaffirmingcare for all ages, with an additional 3 states banning Medicaid coverage for youth care. This #legislative session, many states are moving to expand and solidify their adult #gac Medicaid #bans, including #KY, #MS, #OK, #TN, and #WV.
Of course a bunch of the fraud is #legislative and not just #taxation. But a whole lot of the legislation aims directly at advantageous taxation that nobody except for the wealthy can take advantage of. It's total #class #discrimination. Brutally obvious.
Last week I was in a meeting with #pharmacy group in the #legislative office, and they brought up polypharmacy, I said "you don't even need to explain it, I've dedicated my entire career to this lol"
And after the meeting they said I was first person they met on Capitol Hill who ever knew that term😬
Finally shutting off both my #legislative and #medical computers and playing #tourist in DC for the first time in 4 months when it’s warm enough. Going to the International #Spy Museum tomorrow! As someone who loves all things #espionage I’m excited

My first full beginning to end project as a #Legislative #Staffer. I wrote this, and some really awesome people signed on!
The #Republicans in the #legislative branch have chosen party over their actual position as a coequal branch DESIGNED to prevent exactly this type of #authoritarianism
We need a system for #impeachment or #recall in these clear cases of #partisanship in #Congress
And criminal charges by the state

The boys are back in town! #Atlanta, that is. Adam, Damon, and Ben are representing ORK at for Capital Conservation Day (and more) this #legislative session. We're taking meetings and working the ropes to do everything we can for the protection of #Georgia's water.

In the #legislative branch hierarchy, being a #communications director is definitely bottom of the list (though the comms guy in our office is great, as is everyone).
my preferred role would be a #committee #legislative staff, get into weeds of nerdy topics, some have PhDs
.
🎯 Now we have 4 branches of government: #Executive, #Judiciary, #Legislative, and #Sycophant. So much for #oversight.

Trump post: Based on a thorough, detailed, and complete review of the ridiculous, poorly written, and extraordinarily anti-American decision on Tariffs issued yesterday, after MANY months of contemplation, by the United States Supreme Court, please let this statement serve to represent that I, as President of the United States of America, will be, effective immediately, raising the 10% Worldwide Tariff on Countries, many of which have been “ripping” the U.S. off for decades, without retribution (until I came along!), to the fully allowed, and legally tested, 15% level. During the next short number of months, the Trump Administration will determine and issue the new and legally permissible Tariffs, which will continue our extraordinarily successful process of Making America Great Again - GREATER THAN EVER BEFORE!!! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP
#Trump posted that he was making the decision “Based on a thorough, detailed, and complete review of the ridiculous, poorly written, and extraordinarily anti-American decision on Tariffs issued yesterday,” by #SCOTUS.

#Trump announced Saturday that he would raise his new, global #tariff to 15%, a day after he took steps to replicate some of the punishing duties that had been struck down by #SCOTUS.
Trump announced the change in a post on social media, & said the #tariffs would take effect immediately, as he […]
“I think it persuaded some, but we have this ruling now that so clearly puts the power back in Congress’s hands, the House’s hands,” Bacon said. “We have to stand up on our own two feet & use these authorities, because that’s what the founders intended.”

Rep #DonBacon of Nebraska, one of the few #Republicans in the #House who has forced votes to overturn #Trump’s #tariffs & is set to #retire next year, said in an interview on CNN on Friday that one of the arguments #GOP leaders had used to keep their members from breaking was that “the president […]
The few expressions of pushback that have emerged have largely been futile, & instigated by #Republicans who are set to #retire at the end of this congressional session or cut rare maverick streaks, such as Sen #RandPaul & Rep #ThomasMassie, both Kentucky #libertarians who posted Justice […]
#MikeJohnson has used some iteration of the phrase to respond to questions about whether it was appropriate for #Trump to accept the gift of a #jet from #Qatar leaders; whether he supported the ouster of the new director of the #CDC; & whether he would support Trump pardoning the convicted sex […]
Lawmakers sat idly by after the White House informed them it planned to use a rare maneuver to skirt a vote & cancel nearly $5 billion in #ForeignAid #funding that they had already approved.
“Not my lane” has become the go-to reply among #Republicans asked questions about any number of Trump’s […]
Most of the major elements of Trump’s agenda have been accomplished via executive action, with the exception of the #tax & #spending cut #legislation #Republicans pushed through last year using the #partisan reconciliation process—hardly the “broad support to survive the #legislative process” […]
Justice Neil M. Gorsuch’s concurring opinion released on Friday after #SCOTUS struck down Trump’s #tariffs concluded with a paean to #Congress that read like a requiem for a bygone era of #legislative #power.

In Gorsuch’s Homage to #Legislative #Power, a Subtle Reproach of a Neutered #Congress
