Conway and the Hatch Act
Kelleyanne Conway is being requested to testify before the House of Representatives about public statements she made that may have violate the Hatch Act.
In part, the Hatch Act states that no one not paid from the budget allocated for the executive staff of the president can make any statements that can be taken as political in nature.
It doesn't appear that Kellyanne Conway, Counselor to the President, has violated the Hatch Act.
Conway's salary is paid out of the budget for the president.
The house should give up this issue to pursue larger issues that they are on firm ground for.

Corporations and Public Charities Fund Abortion Bans in many States
Charitable organizations should not be attempting to influence legislation at any level. Yet, according to this article and others, charitable organizations helped shaped, support and pass the abortion legislation in Alabama and elsewhere.
Be mindful of these groups. I ask that if you see them somewhere, don't do business with them or don't donate to their cause, not matter how benign it sounds.
If also requested that you speak up. They have decided to enter the political sphere with their support to the Right. They open the door for the Community to respond.
Want a sample of some? How about Amazon, General Electric and Pfizer.
