AOC: "I want folks at home to look at what members of Congress are invested in private prisons companies, and look at the votes on this bill. It is atrocious that people are lining their pockets with private prison profits in the name of a horrific tragedy."

The Little Free book idea has spread to other community-sharing opportunities, like a Little Free bakery, a crop of Little Free seed libraries, and much more. “To me, the seed library is part of food security. It’s like having money in the bank, but it’s seeds in the library.”
