This is another reason why voting for a party that has your best interest (Democrats) is so important.

Republican’s have spent decades reshaping the courts because they knew the demographics were changing and their unpopular ideology was losing them votes and races.

So ... they devised a plan to be able to supersede laws they don’t agree with appointing judges in favor of their agenda.

Biden's Cancer Moonshot initiative is Congress' latest partisan casualty

However, with the ever-present dysfunction of Congress, maybe predictably, the program has been stalled. Some Republicans, refusing to give Biden a “win,” voted against the renewal of funding.

A federal appellate court in Richmond made a big decision. They said that health insurance plans in states have to cover surgeries that help transgender people feel more like themselves.

President Biden's got a new plan to help people with student loans. He wants to give some money back to people who are struggling to pay, like those who have been paying for over 20 years or went to schools that didn't really help them get good jobs. He's also going to help people who have a lot of unpaid interest on their loans. About 25 million people could get some of their loans forgiven or at least have to pay less.
