I don’t know. Maybe you’re just getting too overwhelmed with relentless bad news one day after another so you might have missed what occurred last week in Washington. Senator Tammy Duckworth called the vote by Republican congressmen “obscene.” She’s absolutely right. They took money ($125M) that had been allocated to replace lead pipes in the […]
