Thank you for this, Jess. I am always interested to hear what you have to say, and this post gives me hope. I teach at a small non-profit which lost federal funding early on. It's demoralizing and scary. To read reporting like this from you keeps me going.

This is how Trump's Medicaid cuts are designed, not to be cuts at all, but will still result in tons of uninsured people.

Georgia spent $54.2 million in less than five years to administer the country’s only Medicaid program with work requirements – more than twice as much as it spent to provide health care to enrollees, according to an analysis released earlier this month.

Every so often I like to haul off and paint an in-studio plein air. This one was a teacher's demo, and I love the light and shadow. There's a link in my profile where you can find this piece! 11" x 14" x .75" $315.00 plus shipping #art #artist #oilpainting

The image shows a light red barn with white trim. The building is flanked by trees, has a chimney and there's a foreground of green grass.
