Published 1 year, 2 months ago
Description
It's positive, daily news for democracy! In this episode of "Good News For Lefties," host Beowulf Rochlen brings you a delightful mix of uplifting stories that highlight progressive victories and liberal advancements in America. From major corporate law firms joining the legal battle against Trump’s policies to a federal judge blocking discriminatory orders on gender-affirming care, the left is making strides in the fight for democracy and equality. We also explore how states like Colorado and Connecticut are lowering utility bills by curbing corporate lobbying, and Washington state’s ambitious plan to raise the minimum wage to $25 by 2031. Tune in for a dose of optimism and humor as we celebrate these victories for the left and for America!
