Don’t forget to call and write the White House today. This is the first day their comment line is open after the bombing of Yemen. We need to show our immense outrage at Biden’s crime.

White House comment line: (202) 456-1111

Switchboard: (202) 456-1414

The hours are 11:00-3:00 EST. Make sure you call within those hours.

If the comment line is busy, you can call the switchboard and they’ll transfer you to the comment line.

It usually takes a while to get on the phone with someone, so if you need to leave a message you can do that too.

Here you can write:

Or text: (302) 404-0880

Don’t let them get away with this. Don’t let them think our rage has fizzled out. Palestine will be free, and the Biden administration will pay for their crimes.

🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

EDIT: If you try calling the White House today, the message says the office is closed due to inclement weather. Hold off on calling until tomorrow, but write and text today. Make sure to call tomorrow when the comment line opens again.

The Weather

30 US states remain at High to Very High levels of SARS-CoV-2 detected in wastewater since February 9, 2024, with multiple states not reporting. Preventing the spread of COVID by taking precautions like masking and improving your indoor air quality can strongly reduce your chance of infection.

We would also like to note that the CDC, which usually updates their wastewater data on a weekly basis, has not updated their dashboard since Friday, February 9th. It is significant that this data delay arrives during the same week of the announcement that they are considering making cuts to the 5-day isolation guideline. We would like to urge the CDC to make their data release schedule public and to continue to provide wastewater information in a timely and consistent manner.

Despite regional declines in wastewater levels in the Midwest, Northeast, and West, the South is still trending extremely high, almost double the national average. This is especially concerning since 7 of the 10 states to refuse Medicaid expansion are located in the South, a region home to some of, “the largest Black populations in the US.” Our collective fight against the state’s abandonment of pandemic protections is a fight against racial injustice.

As a reminder, the last two weeks are provisional data, indicated by a gray shaded area on the graph, therefore these values may change as additional wastewater sites report data. We want to remind you that multiple layers of precautions can protect against a COVID infection.

Variants

JN.1 remains the dominant variant in the United States, and is projected to make up 96.4% of cases in the next two weeks. HV.1 is projected to drop even further 1%, and all other variants are estimated to make up less than 0.6% or less each.

Remember to check estimates for your specific HHS Region for more accurate projections of JN.1 prevalence in your own community.

Take Action

This week is a fast moving train when it comes to demanding equitable pandemic responses and protections from the CDC and public policy. Follow the campaigns below for ways to tap in, sign on, and get involved! And don’t forget to share these with your loved ones as well.

This week the CDC announced they’re considering a change in isolation guidelines for people with COVID, removing the 5 day isolation in order to take the pressure off of American citizens who can’t afford to stay home due pressures from work, lack of paid time off and childcare expenses.

Dr. Lara Jiramanus of The People’s CDC who was interviewed expressed that “frankly, there has been no change in the science. Most people continue to be shedding virus for about nine days, with a range of six to 11 days. Younger patients will tend to be infectious for maybe one day less than that. Older patients or people with severe disease can shed the virus for a longer time.” She further elaborates in conjunction with People’s CDC press release from February 14th that “public health policy should put people first, not billionaires. Rather than ending isolation, the US should ensure paid sick leave for all.”

The CDC’s isolation guidelines impact what reasonable accommodations we can ask for at work, at school, and in hospitals as well as our legal rights should we become held in interactions with police, in jails and in prisons. It is important for all of us on a human rights level that these guidelines reflect proper research and science.

Join us in echoing this call for mandated paid sick leave for all instead of an end to isolation guidelines to Biden and Congress. The CDC’s proposal to eliminate isolation is counter to medical science and the White House must not accept it. Call the White House Comment Line Tuesday – Thursday 11-3 ET at 202-456-1414 and the Congressional Switchboard at 202-224-3121. Making calls is especially important between now and the end of March. For more information and a proposed script, follow this link. Stay tuned to our substack and social media for announcements of more actions in the next two weeks.

Additionally, ACIP, the Advisory Committee on Immunization and Practices will hold their next meeting online on February 28th and 29th.

Scientific evidence indicates updated vaccines should ideally be allowed, available, and fully covered by public funds and/or insurance, for people of all ages at least every six months.

Current vaccine uptake is low due to barriers such as lack of education, the recent diversion of the vaccine program through insurance companies, and pharmacies’ uneven participation in the CDC’s Bridge Access Program, which is due to end December 31st, 2024. Even those who did receive the updated vaccine in the fall may not have adequate protection under the annual vaccine strategy, as vaccine efficacy wanes significantly four to six months following vaccination.

A more frequent vaccination approach and frequent updates to match current variants is needed to better protect all of us amid year-round COVID infections. Follow this link for guidance on submitting a written or oral public comment no later than this Thursday, February 22, 2024 at 11:59 ET to make demands for the above.

Last month the CDC kicked the horrible and unsafe new hospital infection control guidelines it was considering back to the advisory committee (HICPAC) that had proposed the draft guidelines.

Bad guidelines have been delayed, and the next fight over them will hopefully be on a more level field, and hopefully in a process that is at least in some ways more transparent.

Public health advocates have gained another round in this fight, and we’ll need your help! You can start by signing this new petition by National Nurses United that demands that HICPAC ensure the input of frontline healthcare workers, labor unions, patients and community members, and experts in occupational health, industrial hygiene, aerosol dynamics, respiratory protection and infection prevention is central in their next round of revisions.

Additionally, please use our action network letter and call-in toolkit to write to the president, your governor, and state and federal representatives to demand that they bring back masking in healthcare and utilize all measures of infection control that are currently available to us. Don’t forget to customize letters to your own experience! For more information on how COVID spreads in hospitals and the impact of nosocomial, or healthcare-associated, infections check out our article on substack.

MoveOn has started a petition to the Biden Administration, the Department of Health and Human Services and to Congress to bring back free PCR tests for all and to increase the number of free at-home rapid antigen tests. After the end of the Federal Health Emergency for COVID in May 2023, everyday people were stripped of the resources and support they needed to manage community care and health. Even with insurance, insurers are no longer required to cover the costs of testing, pushing the most reliable form of testing for early detection, Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) tests, out of reach for many. Sign this petition to return fast, prevalent, and free testing tools to everyone equitably.

On a more regional note, those living in New York State are urged to customize this letter to tell their representatives and NYS Governor Hochul to continue to fund the COVID-19 Sick Leave program instead of disposing of it in the FY 2025 budget as is currently proposed. If the governor’s current budget proposal goes through, New York citizens would be forced to rely on state minimum sick leave policies of 5-7 days, meaning one COVID infection would easily meet or exceed sick leave allotments for the entire year. Additionally those who do not work in settings that meet the conditions of qualification to enforce the state’s sick leave policy would be left without any leave at all.

Finally, we must remember to keep calling our elected officials to demand a ceasefire in Gaza and to continue to wear and require high quality respirators (N95, KN95 or better) at protests and in organizing spaces. Masking in organizing spaces keeps our fight safer, more accessible and more sustainable. The occupation of Palestine is a healthcare issue. There can be no disability justice under settler colonialism.

How to Leave the Planet

Phone NASA. Their phone number is (713) 483-3111. Explain that it’s very important that you get away as soon as possible.

If they do not cooperate, phone any friend you may have in the White House—(202) 456-1414—to have a word on your behalf with the guys at NASA.

If you don’t have any friends in the White House, phone the Kremlin (ask the overseas operator for 0107-095-295-9051). They don’t have any friends there either (at least, none to speak of), but they do seem to have a little influence, so you may as well try.

If that also fails, phone the Pope for guidance. His telephone number is 011-39-6-6982, and I gather his switchboard is infallible.

If all these attempts fail, flag down a passing flying saucer and explain that it’s vitally important that you get away before your phone bill arrives. ― Douglas Adams

The same people who can't define what a woman is are now going to try to define what constitutes a boyfriend.

Republicans are doing what they do best, chasing democrats as they run to the left at full tilt, just as they've done for the past fifty fucking years.

This is not about gun control.... it's about disarming law abiding civilians. What do we say to that? Fuck you. No.

John Cornyn Thom Tillis Roy Blunt Rob Portman Richard Burr Mitt Romney Bill Cassidy Susan Collins Lindsey Graham Pat Toomey

The links are to their contact pages or office locations (with phone numbers). Make some noise, even if you think they don't care. Apathy and not holding politicians feet to the fire is what got us where we are.

England, Fail, and Fall: and last published gy, So Long, and Thanks for All the Fisb. This was in Britain and the USA in the fall of 1984 and it effectively contradicted e tal everything As if this all were not enough I wrote a computer game for Infocom called The Hitchbiker's Guide to the Galaxy, which bore only fleeting resemblances to anything that had previously gone under that title, and in collaboration with Geoffrey Perkins assembled The Hitchbiker's Guide to the Galaxy: The Original Radio Scripts (published in England and the USA in 1985). Now this was an interesting venture. The book is, as the title uggests, a collection of all the radio scripts, as broadcast, and it is therefore the only example of one Hitchhiker publication accurately and consistently reflecting another. I feel a little uncomfortable with this-which is why the introduction to that book was written after the final and definitive one you to date, up to and including itself. in St reading and, of course, flatly contradicts it. are now so I have prepared People often ask me how they can leave the planet, some brief notes.

By the way, the TSA covers all transportation systems -- not only airports. If it hasn't already, the #TrumpShutdown will affect you.

In addition, by one estimate, the shutdown will slow the economy by .1 percent per week.

If you have a moment, please call The White House switchboard (202-456-1414) and let them know you'd like the shutdown to end now.

Okay, so the White House comment line is only open Tuesday-Thursday 11:00-3:00 EST. We can’t call them until Tuesday (convenient) but when we can, we need to bombard them with calls. Here are the numbers:

Comment line: 202-456-1111

Switchboard: 202-456-1414

If the comment line is busy which it often is, you can call the switchboard and they’ll transfer you to the comment line.

Until then, we can write to them:

Or text:

302-404-0880

Write TODAY. Write everyday. We need to demonstrate immediate and immense outrage at the US bombing Yemen. Make sure to also mention Gaza, and let them know how unacceptable it is that they continue to punish anyone trying to help Gaza. It’s extremely likely that the US chose yesterday to bomb Yemen to distract from the hearing at the ICJ. Make sure they know we won’t be distracted.

We will show them that this won’t just be a fight against Yemen and Palestine, but a fight against their own people as well. We will hold them accountable. They will hear our rage.

Here’s more you can do to let your representatives know you do not support providing arms to Israel right now:

Send a letter to the White House. 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington DC 20500 (be respectful and don’t say anything that could be in any way misconstrued as a threat)

Call the White House: switchboard 202-456-1414

Comments (answered by volunteers rather than White House staff) 202-455-1111

WhiteHouse.gov/contact

This is the fastest way

Tweet Biden and Harris. This is actually helpful because it creates visibility. I want his tags to be over flowing with mentions of Palestine.

If the switchboards were totally overwhelmed because trump was elected President we should be able to make something similar happen over this arms deal.

Also don’t be afraid to contact them more than once. I personally contacted my senators through their website and by phone, and contacted the White House in each of these ways. I will tweet, call, and contact through their website every day.

#free Palestine #Israel #plo #I don’t know what to tag this as to make sure people see it #genocide #colonization #arms deal

What can YOU do

Now, as we all know, paid maternity leave isn’t something that you see plastered on signs, and protested on capitol hill. You might think to yourself, yah this all sounds bad and unfair but, what can I even do to change this. There’s many organizations and groups that you can join. A few include, MomsRising, a women and family advocacy group, PLUS Fund, a public advocacy organization trying to secure family leave for any and everyone, and A Better Balance, which is a family advocacy group. If you feel like that may not be up your alley, or you want to feel like you’re making a more immediate difference, here’s some information for you. First, do your own research finding out who your elected officials in your state are. Whether that be a state senator, or a state representative, or even your local mayor. However small you go, you’re still making a step in the right direction. Finally if you want to pull out the big guns, try and contact the Biden-Harris administration! You can go to their website, or call the White House Switchboard at 202-456-1414. Remember, one voice is still a voice!

A medical condition report filed with The State stated Mackay was a threat to others without her knowledge. Worse it was filed by Dr. Rachel Mitchell, who Mackay has no recollection of meeting or talking to. Her drivers license was revoked and her ability to get to school and work was upended. Appealing a suspension can come with hundreds of dollars in costs and untold time.

Now, imagine this is in America. You've had a bad week; maybe you lost a big sale, or your job, or your spouse, or had a car wreck, or some other big expense, and while processing that you read this article that says the stock market's fall has wiped out $3 trillion in retirement savings, on top of all the other stresses of living in Joe Biden's failing America. You feel at the end of your rope. So, you do the right thing. You reach out to a professional to help put everything into perspective and get back on track.

But then the doc files a report with the local sheriff that you're a threat without any evidence to back it up, or a neighbor who knows you're struggling files a report, or your employer, or a colleague, or the guy at Dairy Queen you yelled at for dropping a slushy in your lap.

Suddenly the police show up on your doorstep with a warrant based on this bullshit report and confiscate all your guns. You can get them back, the officer carrying them out says; just file this report with the court. You'll get a hearing at some point and if you can prove you're innocent - that's now how it works here, btw - and you're not a threat you can maybe sometime, get your guns back. Maybe.

That's how red flag laws work. They circumvent due process, presume your guilt, and punish you without so much as you getting to tell your side of the story.

For the republicans who recently signed onto this bipartisan gun control legislation I have three words.

FUCK YOU. NO.

Liberals are salivating at the idea of getting this kind of power. Republicans, once though of as our allies in the preservation of the Constitution, are aligning themselves with the dems and supporting red flag laws, including the party leadership. If you think that's a problem, you damn well better start making some noise. No matter whether you think they'll listen or not, make your voice heard. We can not afford to sit on the sidelines while politicians wipe their ass with the Constitution.
