Anthony List celebration of life breakfast. In her remarks she said she understood how some women might consider abortion, citing her own experiences as the mother of a child with Down syndrome and the parent of an unwed teenage mother. Calling Republican women “mama grizzlies,” she urged the audience to oppose the Obama administration and criticized the new health care reform law. https://www.c-span.org/video/?293509-1/sarah-palin-remarks-abortion MAY 14, 2020 Rick Bright and Mike Bowen Testimony on Coronavirus Pandemic Response Rick Bright, the recent director of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) who filed a whistleblower complaint alleging he was forced out of his job, testified before the House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Health. Mr. Bright told lawmakers he believed his reassignment to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) was retaliation for his resistance to broadening the use of hydroxychloroquine without the proper safeguards in place. Mr. Bright criticized the Trump administration’s response to coronavirus pandemic, saying the country lacked a coordinated strategy. “Without better planning, 2020 could be the darkest winter in modern history,” he warned. The former BARDA director also said his warnings about the lack of personal protective equipment in the strategic national stockpile went unheeded. https://www.c-span.org/video/?471986-1/rick-bright-mike-bowen-testimony-coronavirus-pandemic-response MAY 14, 2022 Former President Donald Trump Remarks In Austin, Texas Former President Donald Trump held a rally in Austin, Texas. https://www.c-span.org/video/?520283-1/president-donald-trump-remarks-austin-texas May 14, 2024 Israel's National Independence Day, Yom Ha'atzmaut 2024 https://www.timeanddate.com/holidays/us/yom-haatzmaut May 14, 2024 Vietnamese Americans Commemorate 30th Vietnam Human Rights Day https://www.kark.com/business/press-releases/ein-presswire/710485886/vietnamese-americans-commemorate-30th-vietnam-human-rights-day/ May 14, 2024 Maryland Democratic Primary https://ballotpedia.org/Important_dates_in_the_2024_presidential_race May 14, 2024 Maryland Republican Primary https://ballotpedia.org/Important_dates_in_the_2024_presidential_race May 14, 2024 Nebraska Democratic Primary https://ballotpedia.org/Important_dates_in_the_2024_presidential_race May 14, 2024 Nebraska Republican Primary https://ballotpedia.org/Important_dates_in_the_2024_presidential_race May 14, 2024 West Virginia Democratic Primary https://ballotpedia.org/Important_dates_in_the_2024_presidential_race May 14, 2024 West Virginia Republican Primary https://ballotpedia.org/Important_dates_in_the_2024_presidential_race May 14, 2024 TBD Attorney General Garland Remarks on 70th Anniversary of Brown v.
