“People should be outraged.” -Linda Reinstein, pres./chief executive of the Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization
I AM outraged. Like Ms. Reinstein’s husband, my dad succumbed to mesothelioma, cancer caused by asbestos. And now the CDC is messing with asbestos safeguards in consumer products.

I don't know what impact if any a MASSIVE protest on April 5 will have on the administration, but we should try anyway. Maybe coverage of it breaks through to the normies. Maybe we bury the idea that no one is protesting inspiring the discouraged. Maybe just spent time with comrades. All valuable

Trump’s trying to gut funding for libraries: you can fight back with ALA.
The President's executive order to dismantle the Institute of Museum & Library Services would be deeply harmful. We need to speak out.
Take action NOW: tell Congress to protect library funding.
