Hi @NorahODonnell Would like to see pushback on LaRose (R).
Existing Ohio laws state that minors must get permission from their parents before getting an abortion. Nothing in Issue 1 invalidates existing laws.

This June was the hottest on @NASA’s record, which dates back to 1880, when modern global recordkeeping became possible.🌡️
This month is part of a pattern of increasing global temperatures, as a result of human activities, mainly carbon dioxide emissions.

@ESA_Euclid was launched into space 1 July 2023 on a Falcon 9 rocket from @SpaceX. From Lagrange Point 2 (L2), it will observe over a third of the entire sky for at least six years and map the spatial distribution of several billion galaxies.

Before you check your social media feeds today. And post. And post again. And get into an argument on Twitter, lose track of time and wonder where the morning went. Consider that social media is not a natural way to work or socialize. @ibogost bit.ly/3IixpB6

The SEC has fined the Mormon Church and its investment managers a paltry $5,000,000 for trying to hide over $32,000,000,000 in investments.
The Church used 13 shell companies to hide its wealth before whistleblowers spoke out and investigations began. friendlyatheist.substack.com…
