I wrote up a policy brief on a migration workshop I attended for Standard Error last month. There is not a single more important line of social science research for making sense of our times. Read it!

The Republican controlled Senate has released their Finance committee text. On energy policy, it improves slightly over the House bill — but it will still gut clean energy projects, killing jobs largely in Republican districts. This is a garbage bill.

When the House budget resolution first came out, moderate Republicans raised concerns about Medicaid. But, the House-passed bill cut Medicaid by $793 billion. There was an expectation the Senate might moderate cuts. Now, they're looking at even bigger Medicaid cuts.

My second in a two-part series on the perils of the GOP tax bill. Last week's explained how the bill is exactly wrong for the economic moment of higher prices and potential recession. This week's focuses on the Medicaid and SNAP cuts. 1/ www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

The GOP Tax Bill Ignores Decades of Economic Research
Assistance to the poor should be seen less as spending on people and more as investment in people.
