#electionyear — Public Fediverse posts

https://www.europesays.com/people/52682/ Speaker Mike Johnson once longed for a ‘normal Congress,’ but that seems long gone in the House #bill #ClosedDoor #ElectionYear #hour #house #HousePassage #johnson #Legislation #MikeJohnson #NormalCongress #PresidentTrump #Republicans #Senate #speaker #time #week

there is an unbalance in powers in the Western world, where big companies have disproportianal power. And this power, in their hierarchical models, is not with the people on the work floor.

"Fewer Americans eligible to vote bothered to do so compared to 2020. Then over 158m voted, this time the vote was down to 143m. The voter turnout of those eligible fell to 58.2% from the high of 65.9% in 2020.
"Around 40% of Americans registered to vote did not do so. And the number of Americans who failed to register rose to 19m from 12m in 2020. So, although Trump got 51% of those who voted, he actually got only 28% support of Americans of voting age."

Due to better-than-expected performance, or something something cost controls, ICBC -- BC's public car-insurance company -- will soon be sending every vehicle owner in the province $110. That's a cool $400 million for motorists to spend on gasoline, super-bright LED headlights, a tuned muffler -- whatever they wish! It's also EIGHT TIMES the funding this government allocated to new #activetransportation projects in its most recent budget. #priorities #carculture #climate #electionyear

#Senate #Democrats Reintroduce #Legislation to #Legalize #Marijuana.

The #bill, which reflects #growing #support for #legalization, would end the #federal #prohibition on #cannabis. But it is unlikely to #pass in an #electionyear and a divided #government.
