Tips: Food Safety for Power Outages …
Whether you lose power from a hurricane, tornado, wind storm, downed tree, or flood, food safety during severe weather is often the same. If your power goes out, you should know how to keep the food in your refrigerator and freezer safe. Read our latest blog for easy to follow tips to save money and keep your family safe from food poisoning when the power is out.

They said: “they wanted to “catch him in the act”
It’s one of the saddest stories I’ve come across yet.
The Alabama girl who was assaulted by a fellow student in a middle school bathroom after school officials used her as bait to “catch him in the act” has faced a long and difficult road.
When we learned about the case here at the National Women’s Law Center, we were horrified. Since we’re experts in Title IX, we immediately called the local law firm the student’s family had hired and offered to help. We also called the U.S. Department of Justice and asked them to help. Last week, we, joined by DOJ, fought for her during oral arguments before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit — and we’ll keep standing with her as the fight for justice goes on.
Thank you, again, for everything you’ve already done to support the rights of women and girls.
With gratitude,

Visit Big Bend! (Before Will Hurd Destroys It)
a message from #PeteGallego for Congress
Yet another classic example of Congressman Will Hurd talking out of both sides of his mouth.
Today a column by Rep. Hurd appeared in a D.C. media outlet on the beauty of the Big Bend Region — which is great — we 100% agree.
What we disagree on is Rep. Hurd’s proposed legislation that would devastate Big Bend National Park.
Our local paper in Alpine had this to say about Rep. Hurd’s bill:
“The result is that the Department of Homeland Security can come into Big Bend National Park and bulldoze archaeological sites, endangered wildlife zones and destroy view shed and the dark skies for which this park is internationally famous”
So, if Rep. Hurd remains in office, then you should probably go visit the Big Bend area ASAP — before he militarizes it and destroys the natural beauty.
Or you could help us get Pete back in office and rest assured that we’ll have a congressman who will never stop fighting to preserve and protect the area he grew up in.
