For decades, the NRA has lobbied against raising the minimum wage, against paid sick leave, and against raising the tipped minimum wage for servers and bartenders.
The federal minimum wage has gone up once since 1996, to $7.25 per hour.

Activist @aeidinger put down the piece of a cannabis plant he brought to Russian Embassy.
Putin, he says, turned Griner into "a drug kingpin, over what? Not this."
"This is what this is about" he said, holding up a vape pen like the one #BrittneyGriner is in Russian prison for.

Great thread on why luxury rental buildings in Adams Morgan sit empty.
🧵Want to know why rents have been skyrocketing? This jaw dropping @propublica investigation has one answer--collusion. @RealPage's YieldStar proprietary software is helping the nation's biggest landlords and property managers jack up prices together. 1/10 propublica.org/article/yield…

activist Jay Waxse holds a picture of Miguel Gonzales, 59, who died homeless in the DC neighborhood where he grew up, not far from the home his family lost to a predatory mortgage. There are 5 empty homes for every homeless person in America.
