Social Security Retirement Trust Fund Will Run Dry In 2032 Unless Congress Acts
Tens of millions of Americans face potential reductions in Social Security and Medicare benefits as annual reports from the programs' trustees project accelerated insolvency for their respective trust funds. The Social Security retirement trust fund is now anticipated to be depleted by late 2032, while Medicare's hospital insurance trust fund is expected to be exhausted by the second quarter of 2033. These revised forecasts, attributed to factors including recent tax policy changes, declining fertility rates, and reduced immigration, underscore an urgent need for congressional action to prevent significant financial shortfalls for beneficiaries.

New Consumer Protection Rule Turns Its Back On Fair Housing As Advocates Sue To Preserve Enforcement
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has issued a new rule significantly curtailing anti-discrimination efforts, a move described as one of the most consequential shifts in federal fair-lending policy in decades. This action has prompted a federal lawsuit filed by the National Fair Housing Alliance and four other housing organizations in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. The suit challenges the CFPB's decision to end the disparate impact standard and limit special purpose credit programs, which are crucial for expanding credit access for marginalized communities. Plaintiffs assert the bureau failed to justify its departure from decades of settled Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA) implementation and question the Acting Director's rulemaking authority.

Julie Averill talks AI, DEI, and living as a corporate Lesbian in new book Chief Impact Officer
“The most powerful thing I ever did wasn’t coming out. It was coming home to myself. Because when you stop editing your truth to make others comfortable, you stop disappearing. You start leading from alignment instead of fear.” —Julie Averill in Chief Impact Officer. Very few LGBTQIA+ people (or women in general) have ever reached the top level of the US corporate ladder, which continues to be dominated by cis straight men. Only 10% of CEOs from Fortune 500 companies are women, with less than 1% openly Quee

Flamboyantly campy Masters of the Universe lacks the power to entertain
Popular Mattel action figure He-Man returns to life in a new take on Masters of the Universe. This gaudily inventive, strangely tongue-in-cheek bit of sci-fi fantasy weirdness is as much a spin on 1980’s Flash Gordon as a big-budget reimagining of the Filmation cartoon series He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. It is also unapologetically, almost unrelentingly, Queer. Yet that’s not enough to make the finished product worthwhile. Maybe in fits and starts, though. Don’t get me started with how terrific J
