So there happens to be a Supreme Court case that addresses whether and how federal funds can be used to indirectly regulate policy in the states. Among other things, the goal must be related to the original purpose of the funds and it cannot be unduly coercive. Thanks for coming to my Ted talk

A tale of those who took the fork. Today we learned who signed their fork agreement (some had shared, others had not). We were told their last day would be Friday (as had been scheduled). Early afternoon we were told, just kidding, their last day is today. Turn in all your stuff and go.

Folks are frustrated with Dems in Congress right now. Here’s my solution - get the hell out of DC and hold some hearings. I love town halls, but we need to focus on people right now. Have folks come testify about how these cuts are affecting them. Get local media there. Make it real.
