TCF experts with decades of political and policy experience in the fields of health care and maternal health, economic and disability justice, and education will share their reactions to the decision—and discuss how the ruling will make life tougher for tens of millions of Americans across the country, particularly Black, Brown, and low-income communities.

36] -- What Will Be the Impact of the War in Ukraine for the Future of European Security? This will be discussed on Wed., June 29, at 1 PM ET at the Cato Institute, 1000 Massachusetts Ave. NW, WDC. Email events@cato.org. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has produced big changes in NATO and EU states. But shock at Russia’s aggression and fear of its future intentions seem to point in one direction, whereas its dismal military performance and its vulnerability to economic punishment seem to point in another. NATO and EU expansion are once again on the table. Will the aftermath of the war strengthen NATO and, with it, the central U.S. position in European security? Or can Russian aggression impel greater non‐NATO security cooperation, giving European states and the EU a larger role to play and a greater say over security affairs in Europe? On the first day of NATO’s summit in Madrid, please join Nicole Koenig and Barry Posen for a discussion of what the war in Ukraine suggests about the future of European security. RSVP at https://www.cato.org/events/what-will-be-impact-war-ukraine-future-european-security.
37] -- On Wed., June 29 at 1 PM, check out the Real Cost of ICBMs: U.S. Economic Development beyond Defense [sic] Spending. The theme is Building a Movement for Nuclear and Economic Justice.

The event will bring together experts from nuclear strategy, the economics of the defense [sic] industry, and climate change mitigation as well as other fields to discuss the prospects for and challenges to planning a stable, democratic future for U.S. communities beyond reliance on military spending as an economic development program. The speakers are Matt Korda, Federation of American Scientists, and Heidi Peltier, Brown University Costs of War Project. RSVP at https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_LOPpy7QMTrG6_lY-gXsy0w.

41] – Progressive Democrats of America [info@pdamerica.org] think you may want a see the Sicko Reunion on Wed., June 29 at 8 PM ET. Join PDA and Healthcare-NOW for a very special online event. In spring of 2007, Michael Moore released a blockbuster documentary showing the extraordinary damage the U.S. healthcare system inflicts upon ordinary Americans. Story by story, SiCKO pulled back the veil of how ordinary illness and injury, when paired with deadly healthcare profiteering, leads to suffering, financial ruin, and even death. Donna and Larry Smith were two of the patients featured in the film. Donna remains deeply invested in the movement to secure healthcare justice as Chair of PDA's Advisory Board and Co-Chair of the Healthcare Issue Organizing Team.
Fifteen years later, the patients featured in SiCKO are back. Their extraordinary stories impacted Congress, shaped the Affordable Care Act, and helped to launch the modern Medicare for All movement. Reflect on the impact SiCKO made and celebrate the victories over the past 15 years and the road still remaining to win a just healthcare system! You can watch the reunion on https://www.facebook.com/HealthcareNow/videos or https://www.youtube.com/user/HealthcareNOWNatnl.
