Maybe it's corny but if you are anxious about the state of this country I promise organizing / participating in mutual aid will make you feel better. Having a sense of purpose and making a tangible difference with your neighbors is a million times better than doom scrolling.

The American Chemistry Council and @BexMcPhail are trying to trick WVians by framing their anti-community air monitoring bill as a positive. Don't listen to them. For a real positive bill, take a look at HB 3112 https://t.co/EY3pIQYFSQ

How are public comments in writing weighed? In practice, will those approved by the committee chair to speak at the verbal portion be considered more seriously than those in writing? What assurances are being made so that each comment is taken seriously?
Learned today you can add public comment for a bill straight from the bill’s website on https://t.co/CfV43vsvvm ! Just look up a bill and bam, add comments ⬇️

"If those in power do not want you to know the quality of the air you breathe, then it’s worth questioning why. And, if those in power do not want you to be able to ask that question to their face, then it’s worth resisting..." My latest for @WV_Watch: https://t.co/p7Vz0H7oTL

Democratizing access to air quality data is the primary goal of community air monitoring efforts in West Virginia.

The planet is burning, Chuck.
The DeepSeek announcement from China has been called by some AI’s “Sputnik moment” for America. It’s precisely why I made AI a top priority in the last Congress and will keep at it. Our competitors are going to use every single opportunity they get to overtake the US’s lead on

how can @CharlestonWV call itself "bike city" with limited cycling infrastructure and only one protected recreational (not even functional) bike lane in the entire city? https://t.co/wRh7KII4qW

I wish Americans understood how much we’re propagandized every single day
The United Nations just voted 187-2 (Unites States, Israel) to condemn the US blockade of Cuba, and THIS is what we get from The Hill.

Roughly a quarter of the staff has turned over in the past year, and current and former employees told NOTUS there’s been a feeling of “intentional suppression” regarding the war in Gaza.

A bill that will enter West Virginia into an agreement with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, allowing the state to oversee the potential storage and disposal of certain radioactive materials, is now headed to the governor’s desk, reports @caitycoyne. https://t.co/wPbVKAeK7W

25+ people were locked out of a Charleston, WV city council meeting planning to attend in solidarity with public speakers on the one year anniversary of the genocide in Palestine. By the time folks were let in, the council meeting was wrapping up. Shameful. #FreePalestine 🇵🇸

"Never satisfied when it comes to further contributing to mass incarceration, the West Virginia Legislature amended the bill this year to add prison time and increase monetary fines for violating the statute." https://t.co/Qf7lZLpWVC

An investigation from the Guardian confirmed what many have long assumed to be true — corporations ave a captive hold on our state officials.
