Get the Tennessee papers to cover this bill deregulating carcinogen Trichloroethylene (TCE). GOP used to condemn HRC for her lenience, now they want to deregulate completely?
H.J.Res.34

Here's the bill with sponsors and such, publicize among their constituents. https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-joint-resolution/34

I keep trying to find a way to make the MAGA letters stand for fascism but I'm stuck at 'Make America Confederate Again.' 😅 Maybe 'Make America Gruesome Again'?

The GOP doesn't care about the harm they do. They plan on living in safe secure areas of the world where this stuff doesn't touch them.

The only peoples that Republikunts in office recognize
are Corporations.

Pretty obvious.

I just wish they’d tax a Corporation
like they tax a people making
under 60k annually with the
standard (ie; no) deductions …

I love Republikunts! I can’t believe my descent into profanity under this profane, evil administration. I’m borrowing it - sorry and thank you in advance.
