@arstechnica sometimes, a public outcry echoed by niche professional press gets the right result.

All nine Republican senators running for reelection this year just voted against the Right to IVF Act:

John Barrasso
Marsha Blackburn
Kevin Cramer
Ted Cruz
Deb Fischer
Josh Hawley
Pete Ricketts
Rick Scott
Roger Wicker

So much for the party of "freedom."

@rbreich there are no freedoms in fascism. The Republican party is dead as a dodo. Maybe this is the time when the US two party system splinters to create real, socially responsible representation with three parties, the left, the pragmatic and independents. Can’t see it happening though. Maybe the GOP will implode, cast the crazies out and do its duty towards the majority of citizens it is supposed to represent.

Why do you appreciate unions?

I’ll start:

Weekends off
Paid vacations
Work breaks
Sick leave
Paid holidays
No child labor
Safer working conditions
Health care and retirement benefits

Casual reminder to Ignore the anti-union propaganda from corporate America.

If unions were actually bad for workers, corporations wouldn't need to spend millions of dollars on union-busting.
