St. Paul, MN— Today, Planned Parenthood of Minnesota Political Action Fund launched TV ads for state senate candidates Sara Flick and Dr. Aleta Borrud. Flick and Borrud are champions for affordable birth control and expanding health care, and they are running against longtime incumbents with track records against reproductive health care. The $200,000 TV ad buy lifts up the state senate candidates’ strong support for sexual and reproductive health care, affordable birth control, and expanding health care for all Minnesotans, regardless of whe...
Despite the clear opposition to masks within the Trump White House and among its allies, Americans of all political stripes overwhelmingly support their use as a public health measure and say they wear them whenever they’re in public. Still, there are significant differences in mask-use rates at the state level. And data from Carnegie Mellon’s CovidCast, an academic project tracking real-time coronavirus statistics, yields a particularly vivid illustration of how mask usage influences the prevalence of covid-19 symptoms in a given area. Tak...
There's no reset button on COVID-19 exposure. That's the concern underlying new changes to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's definitions and guidance on social distancing during the pandemic, which will likely mean changes in some schools' approach to preventing or tracing coronavirus outbreaks and significantly more students being identified for quarantine. The CDC now defines a "close contact" of someone with COVID-19 as anyone who was within six feet of someone infected for a...

Voters in four states from different regions of the country could embrace broad legal marijuana sales on Election Day, and a sweep would highlight how public acceptance of cannabis is cutting across geography, demographics and the nation's deep political divide. The Nov. 3 contests in New Jersey, Arizona, South Dakota and Montana will shape policies in those states while the battle for control of Congress and the White House could determine whether marijuana remains illegal at the federal...
ARLEE - As Election Day 2020 approaches within nine days, does a blizzard coming south out of Canada count as international interference? The threat of record-setting cold on Saturday canceled plans for a voter registration event and taco feed on the Arlee Pow Wow Grounds. Nevertheless, the success of a similar outreach effort last week in Hot Springs convinced organizers it was worth rescheduling. "At Hot Springs last week, there was a guy who waited in line on a moped," said Confederated...

"When asked how long they expect it will take for their business to return to its pre-pandemic level of activity, tribal business owners express considerable...
WILLIAMS, Ariz. (AP) - Myron Lizer has no qualms about it: As one of the top officials on the country's largest Native American reservation, he's a proud Donald Trump supporter. The Navajo Nation vice president says Native American values - hard work, family and ranching - align more with the GOP than with Democrats. "I'm finding that we're giving the Navajo Republican voters confidence in coming out and showing their support," he told The Associated Press. "We don't need that, per se, but we...
The Trump White House’s newly-released “Putting America’s First Peoples First: Forgotten No More!” document attempts to re-write its record on Native American issues in numerous misleading ways. The Trump administration claims credit for work primarily achieved by Senate and House Democrats to advance Indian Country priorities and ignores the damage the administration has wrought across Indian Country. “It’s unfortunate, but hardly surprising, that the Trump White House is now making highly misleading claims that the president is ‘fighting f...
