Maya Miller

Maya Miller is an American journalist who has written for The New York Times and other publications. She focuses primarily on politics and world affairs. Miller has a background in conservationism and is a member of Nevada's liberal Democratic wing. She was previously listed as one of three Nevadans on President Nixon's enemies list. In the 1974 Nevada Senate primary race, Miller ran against Harry Reid, the state's 34-year-old Lieutenant Governor, and Dan Miller, who some say entered the race to confuse supporters of Maya. Maya focused her campaign on heavily Democratic Clark County (Las Vegas), where she knocked on thousands of doors seeking votes. She advocated for reforms in income and Social Security taxes and emphasized the need for more women's representation in Congress.

Senate Republicans Block Bill Protecting In Vitro Fertilization, Sparking Debate on Reproductive Rights

Broke On: Thursday, 13 June 2024 On June 13, 2024, Senate Republicans blocked a Democratic-led bill aimed at codifying federal protections for in vitro fertilization (IVF) services. The vote fell short of the necessary 60 votes needed to move forward, with two Republican Senators, Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins, voting in favor. Democrats argue that access to IVF is at risk due to ongoing debates regarding reproductive rights and the Supreme Court's decision on federal abortion rights. The failure of this bill highlights the need for continued dialogue and compromise on this complex issue.
