On the new song the band says, "This is a relationship song. It's about self-improvement, but finding it through someone else. Like being stuck in a hole (bad relationship) and thinking That's just the way it's supposed to be until you finally get out and find someone that you truly love and you realize that you've been just getting by mistaking comfort for love. It's also about how hard and long it takes to get out"
The song was produced, engineered, mixed and mastered by Kris Crummett (Sleeping With Sirens, Issues, Dance Gavin Dance, etc.)

Secretary Perdue Statement on President Trump’s Tax Reform Agenda
(Washington, DC, September 6, 2017) – U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue today reiterated his strong support for President Trump’s tax reform agenda, as the president outlined today in North Dakota. Perdue issued the following statement:
“Farming is a complicated operation, so to place more burdens on the people of agriculture through the tax code has never made any sense. Most agricultural enterprises are small businesses, and the costs and time required simply to comply with the tax code are impediments to what these folks really ought to be doing, and that’s growing and producing food to feed the United States and the world.
“It’s an old, not-so-funny joke that farmers live poor and die rich, because of the value of the land they own. It isn’t right that a family’s hard work will be punished by the Death Tax, through which many farms have to be broken up or sold off just to pay the tax bill. I urge Congress to take up the tax reform agenda to give American agriculture the best chance to succeed. That would be in line with our new motto here at USDA – ‘Do right and feed everyone.’”
President of nation’s largest union to critique Trump-DeVos education agenda
First-ever Latina to lead NEA will be joined by DREAMer to address DACA news on Sept. 8
WASHINGTON — Lily Eskelsen García, president of the National Education Association, will speak at the National Press Club on Sept. 8 on what the Trump education agenda means for students and public schools. NEA is the nation’s largest union, representing 3 million teachers and school employees who work in K-12 schools and higher education at U.S. public colleges and universities.
With the nation’s more than 50 million public school students heading back to school, Eskelsen García’s address to the National Press Club is noteworthy at a time when the U.S. Department of Education, under Secretary Betsy DeVos, is seeking to expand efforts to privatize public education and roll back student protections.
Earlier this week, Donald Trump ordered an end to the Obama-era program that shields young undocumented immigrants, known as DREAMers, from deportation. More than 800,000 young adults brought to the United States illegally as children who qualify for the program, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, will become eligible for deportation. Joining Eskelsen García will be DREAMer Alex Herrera Ramos, who is a sophomore at Duke University and is a DACA activist.
The inequity and racism that has plagued our society is having a devastating effect on the nation’s children and that is most evident in the fight to ensure all students have access to a great public school no matter their means or ZIP code. The forces aligned to undermine the system of public education now include the Secretary of Education, and the Trump administration has attempted to abandon the critical federal role in ensuring educational opportunity for all and fighting inequities. Eskelsen García will offer not only a critique of the current administration, but offer a clarion call to protect and defend all student’s right to a great public school.
Eskelsen García, the first-ever Latina elected to lead NEA, started her career in education as a “school lunch lady” and was encouraged by a teacher to go to college and become a teacher herself. After just nine years in the classroom, she was named the Utah Teacher of the Year in 1989. In addition to her background in education, Eskelsen García also has political experience. In 1998, she became the first Hispanic to run for Congress in Utah. Although she lost the election, Eskelsen García jokes that she won the “silver” by capturing an impressive 45 percent of the vote as a Democrat in the conservative red state.
Lunch will be served at 12:30 p.m., with remarks beginning at 1 p.m., followed by a question-and-answer session ending at 2 p.m. Tickets are $25 for Club members, who may purchase up to two tickets at this rate, and $39 for all other non-member tickets.
