Bracing for another day of watching my life savings decimated by an incompetent fool.

Time for Congress to act to stop this madness.

Actual files. Although I have only received files for one of several requests made around the same time. I have two requests where I received an acknowledgment letter, and two where I haven’t heard anything.

NEW: Among the work jammed up by the Trump administration's freeze on government purchase cards is genealogy research that the Army sees as essential to identify the remains of soldiers who went missing in combat.

A stable government is essential for business. By the time these CEOs figure out where the line is, it will be too late.

And Dems in Congress may not have power, but they have a platform and a megaphone that the rest of us don’t have. Use it!!!!

Hey friends - I'm running for a seat on the Forest Hills board of education in November's election.

Our kids and community deserve a board that's willing to take the job seriously, do the work professionally, and put students at the center of its decision making.

Join me!
