Hi, all, and happy Tuesday! My, what a busy week. We’ve got negotiations in progress on a second tranche of appropriations bills, continued back-and-forth about Ukraine funding (and maybe a border bill), an imminent House vote on a TikTok ban, last night’s RNC “
Affordable Connectivity ends in April if our representatives and senators don't act so I hope enough if us call and email them to have enough impact to persuade them to extend the funding. Thanks for including the situation in your daily news!
I had lunch with an artist friend of mine who made the following obvious and overlooked observation: "Mike Johnson bears a striking resemblance to Alfred E Neuman of MAD Magazine fame". Looked him up and yes, indeed, she's right. Now I can't get that out of my head and I'm guessing that's a good thing because there's nothing better than a good shot of humor these days.
Thanks for the shout out! The Affordable Connectivity program is essential for so many of our citizens.

Jess -- I'll read more and comment later but if tomorrow is Thursday I missed a day! "On Thursday (tomorrow)"
