    Washington's Climate Act: Jobs, Food, Green Skills

    The Washington Climate Commitment Act, signed in 2021, aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 95% by 2050. Big polluters buy allowances at state auctions, with decreasing availability to encourage emission cuts. The act funds the Washington Climate Corps Network (WCCN), which provides grants for climate projects and green job training. The Port of Pend Oreille and Vets on the Farm in Spokane are examples of beneficiaries, using funds for clean energy training and community gardens, respectively. The act empowers communities towards a greener future. Checkout https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn. Advertise on DNN: advertise@thednn.ai

    Washington Farmworkers Fight for Union Rights

    Washington states farmworkers, predominantly Latino, have long faced exclusion from basic labor rights due to a century-old loophole. Senate Bill 6045 aims to rectify this by placing farmworkers and their unions under the Public Employment Relations Commission, similar to the National Labor Relations Board for other private workers. Despite historical organizing efforts, such as the 2022 Sunnyside mushroom farm union push and the 2017 Sakuma Brothers Farm strike, farmworkers still lack union recognition. The bill, supported by labor groups, faces opposition from eastern Washington farm districts, but redrawn districts boosting Latino power offer hope for change.

    Rubio: Western Civ Shared by Americans & Europeans

    U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio delivered a powerful speech at the Munich Security Conference, emphasizing the shared history, culture, and values between Americans and Europeans. He highlighted the importance of Western civilization, which younger Americans may not fully understand due to the lack of Western civ classes in universities. Many institutions now promote an anti-Western education, focusing on negative aspects of history. This approach has led to a generation of confident progressives who often embody the stereotypes theyve been taught to hate. Checkout https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
