Harris has proposed giving $6,000 (via refundable tax credit) to families in the 1st year of a baby's life. Flint, Michigan has been doing this for the past year. The results are incredible: Fewer babies born with low birthweight No families evicted in baby’s 1st year Less hunger t.co/BiEcGw7Mj7

The woman behind Flint’s Rx Kids program, Dr Mona Hanna (known to locals as just "Dr. Mona") is the relentlessly upbeat, baby-obsessed public health advocate and Michigan State University professor whose research exposed the Flint water crisis. She's also a practicing pediatrician. Over the years, she's grown frustrated by how little she can improve the health of her tiniest patients, who often cope with inadequate nutrition, unstable housing and stressed parents.
"I know how to take care of kids, I know what kids need, but I don't know how to get the them cash to do it," she said. "For so long I just wanted to have something in my doctor's bag to prescribe away poverty."
She found a way to do it. Rx Kids is so named because it "prescribes" cash for pregnant moms and babies. Since January, city residents have been eligible for $1,500 at 20 weeks' gestation and then another $500 for each of the 12 months after birth (so $6,000 total for a baby's first year). There are no income tests, making the program cheaper to administer and perhaps less stigmatized.

If you want a good example of how Republicans are still able to win elections despite running on unpopular ideas, look at how much time and effort Dems have had to spend this cycle telling people *already registered to vote* to check their registration to make sure they weren't illegally purged.

I hate this idea that eventually the industry is going to capitulate to AI. Nope. Let's fight. Let's revile it. Let's start an art war and take no prisoners. Fuck AI. Let's throw it into the sun.

Part of the New Zealand AIDS Memorial Quilt. The people remembered on this block include: Rick, Uncle Jack, Max Navarre, Al, Simon (panel made by Malcolm Harrison), Roy, Ian Williams (panel made by his partner Welby Ings), & Russell Robert Purves Wells (1949-89). Ref GH017448 Te Papa.

The New Zealand Quilt Project dates from 1988, and is part of a worldwide movement that grew from communities most affected by HIV and AIDS. Each quilt panel represents a person who died of AIDS, and was made by family members, partners and/or friends.

The Quilt concept originated in San Francisco in 1987 in response to the devastating impact of AIDS. Its intention was to raise awareness and enable loved ones to express feelings of love, loss and regret in a permanent and tangible way.
