It occurred to me while I was teaching a class about the minimum wage today that many of the graduate students in the class were like 7 last time the federal minimum wage went up. It's so past time to #raisethewage

For several years, I’ve started most days with a poem (thanks to @slowdownshow). This morning, I learned of a new poet:outgoing GOP MC @RepMeijer. His poetic message to GOP leadership: “The grass is green/the sky is blue/and by the way/you just got your ass handed to you” #poetry
Why are @mcdcc primaries low turn-out? #MoCoMD is 70% D, ppl shd vote now to have an impact in Nov but they aren’t. The ballot is too long & complex—even high-interest voters are overwhelmed. With @ihppod, we built #IHPbot, a solution 4 that. Moco2022.ihppod.com
We built #IHPbot, an interactive voter guide that uses voter input to generate a personalized slate of candidates within minutes. We hoped the tool wd cut through the clutter, help voters make choices, & boost voter turnout in MoCo, Md, for 7/19 primary moco2022.ihppod.com 1/

@ihppod is super excited to announce the arrival of #IHPbot, which is designed to generate your personalized slate of #MD #MontgomeryCounty 2022 primary candidates, from governor to school board. Try it out and share: moco2022.ihppod.com/ 1/5

.@Marysdesk Listening to today’s show w @jim_newell. Why $3.5T when discussing the reconciliation package? It’s over 10 years so it’s really ~$350B/yr—as %age of GDP? ~0.15%. Sounds a lot less scary, doesn’t it? To compare, the $1.3T in ARPAct was *actually* FY21 money
