We got your back, New York!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Several figures here aren’t federal results or NY-specific. The $472B combines US wide pledges: Micron's $250B is nationwide (NY site $100B) Anthropic's $50B covers TX and NY. The 48% murder drop is from NY's state run GIVE program (28 departments, Jan – May 2026). arkolith.com/news/news-micr… therepublic.com/?p=843020 governor.ny.gov/news/safer-str…

Can you identify these two pioneers? One came to India to improve farming and came to regard local farmers as teachers. Another questioned plowing, fertilizing and weeding. #RegenerativeRevolution #SaveSoil

A very exciting conservation win in Australia! 🦜 Three ecologically and culturally significant properties in northern Queensland totaling nearly 396,000 hectares — more than three times the size of Hong Kong — have been acquired by the Queensland Government, supported by TNC and our philanthropic partners! “The properties provide habitat for several threatened species, including the vulnerable Carpentarian Grasswren, Grey Falcon and the endangered Golden-shouldered Parrot, along with numerous other plants and animals that remain poorly documented,” said Mike Roache, TNC’s Protected Landscapes Director in Australia.

I love my Jewish and Muslim neighbors, and I understand the pain and fear they feel, but for me, the most important issue in this election is restoring the Senate as a check on a dangerously corrupt president. That’s why I am supporting Abdul El-Sayed.

The election is two days out. Let's stay focused on what matters: Winning. Bypass all the distractions. We can sort it out later. We need to win by margins big enough that they can't be challenged. Let's turn out the vote.

Rest easy, Captain. We have the helm. ✨ This is Webb’s look at Westerlund 1, a super star cluster. Because our galaxy is past its peak of star formation, and because stars live relatively short lives, only a few of these clusters exist to give us clues to that past era.

I revisit what I wrote in my book, Giving Up Is Unforgivable: A Manual For Keeping A Democracy, in light of what’s happened since the year it was published. I hope you’ll take a minute to read & think about the big picture with me. joycevance.substack.com/p/ca…

We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Dolores Huerta, a tireless and outspoken advocate and community organizer for the rights of women, immigrants, and people living in poverty. We were honored to have had the opportunity to recognize her enduring contributions and iconic legacy in social justice, as celebrated in the powerful, Peabody-winning @PBS @IndependentLens documentary DOLORES. 🏆✨
