Attacking our nurses and your health care in the middle of a pandemic

  John xxxxxx, Our health care workers in New York and across the country are putting their lives on the line every day — often without the protective equipment they need and deserve. Still, they don't stop risking their lives to save ours. Let's be clear: this is a public health crisis, …

We need to get big money out of politics

  John xxxxxx, This year's election is more important than any I can remember in my lifetime. That’s not an exaggeration, it's not hyperbole — it's just a fact. The stakes truly are higher. And the consequences of sitting this one out are grave. When you pick up that ballot to vote, you w…
