This is pretty incredible. But I also recall getting ready to go on a all-inclusive trip, and the flight attendant was not going to let me get on the plane because I had kept my maiden name, and it was for married couples only. My in-laws traveled with us and had to vouch for me, a grown woman.

I was turned down for a credit card in 1971 even though I had a professional job and my husband was unemployed. Also turned down for a mortgage in 1975 even though my salary was almost double my husband’s salary. Even when we were successful, our income was ignored for credit purposes.

Eric Hovde (R) wants to end coverage for pre-existing conditions as well as letting kids stay on parents’ plans until age 26, the amendment written by Sen. Baldwin (D). She fights to protect our care. Should be an easy choice for November. #BlueWaveRising #DemCastWI

Dinah Shore @Dinah_Shore5166If you commented about a Rawstory article I posted having a paywall, I apologize. I tried twice to reply to you, but was rebuffed. Soooo, I did post a (maybe more than one) Rawstory+ article that does have a paywall. Sorry. Will try not to do that again. It is one of the few I actually pay for.08:05 PM - Apr 26, 2024

Amazing how little attention this is getting. Used to be, social media was full of demands for Net Neutrality. Now there’s Gaza, Ukraine, the Trump trial, the Supreme shitshow, and folks are, “oh, ok.”
