The FCC just voted to restore net neutrality. If you have no idea what that means, John Oliver broke it down 10 years ago.

More here from our former Appeal colleague @JoshuaPVaughn, who has done more reporting on this issue in Pennsylvania than anyone else! xitter.cf/SenatorMuth/status/177…
Investigative reporter @JoshuaPVaughn from @PennLive says that there are laws on the books about properly reporting the number of deaths in custody, however, they either have no enforcement mechanism or there fundamentally appears to be no desire to enforce the law #SenDemPolicy

Pepsi replaced its 32oz Gatorade bottle with a 28oz for the same price.
Nabisco shrunk the family size box of Wheat Thins by 12%.
General Mills shrunk the family size box of Cocoa Puffs by 6%.
Frito-Lay shrunk the size of a bag of Doritos by 5%.
Shrinkflation is everywhere.

Super Bowl staples like chips, dip, & soda cost more this year.
Companies were forced to charge more because of inflation, right?
Well, giant snack-maker PepsiCo, hiked prices by double digits for several quarters in a row and boosted its profits.
Two words: Price gouging.

The effective federal corporate income tax rate:
1950: 50%
1990: 25%
2020: 13%
Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate.
That is how we will pay for it.

A TX man slipped abortion pills to his wife &severely damaged the fetus.
He got sentenced to 180 DAYS & got to keep his law license.
If she had taken the abortion pills voluntarily, she would have been charged with MURDER.
This is about controlling women.

Great news air-breathers: the Biden Administration finalized new limits on soot pollution that will save live and let kids with asthma breath easier.

“The EPA’s new standard can facilitate that by bringing about cleaner air, which will save an estimated 4,500 lives and avoid over 700,000 asthma attacks every year!” - @RepRabb #ActOnSoot

Maybe you thought US learned its lesson about ramming highways thru cities. Maybe you thought we were starting to get serious about climate change. Then you haven’t looked at PennDot’s study for rebuilding I-95 in Philly. I did & here’s my column: bit.ly/47KwHHH

Uber doesn’t want you to know how much money they’re taking on every ride.
Sometimes the company takes over half the money you send in.
That leaves drivers struggling to pay their bills – struggling to survive.

PA recently received funding for two #hydrogen hub projects from @ENERGY.

Public Herald reports on centralized waste treatment. These industrial facilities permitted by the state and federal government to treat and “clean” fracking waste put workers' health at risk.
