The war on our federal government through DOGE isn’t making it more efficient—it’s just inflicting pain on thousands of talented workers and making America less secure and competitive. See our statement from CNL Director Colin Mortimer & Steering Committee Chair @cathy.bsky.social:

Short-term workforce training is one of the most promising (and popular!) policies out there to help folks without a college degree. Stood out for us again and again in our research with PPI. Working class voters are under no illusion: the 20th century job market is gone. Lets help people prosper.

At a time when employers across the country are struggling to find skilled workers, it's more important than ever to pass bipartisan legislation that would expand access to these programs. Read the full piece here: www.realcleareducation.com/articles/202...

It’s Time to Expand Pell Grants to Include Short Term Workforce Programs
Over the past few decades, most kids have grown up being told by their parents that getting a four-year college degree is the best way to get ahead in life. Today, however, as the cost of college has

There are colleges across the country that offer high-quality short-term programs that can be crucial for the local workforce, but under current law, these programs are ineligible for Pell Grants.

New from me in RealClearEducation for @progressivepolicy.org: Under current law, Pell Grants can not be used for programs under 16 weeks in length. I argue that this outdated policy should be changed, so that students can use Pell Grants for high-quality short-term programs.

Congress has the opportunity to pass the bipartisan YIMBY Act during the current lame-duck session, but partisan squabbling is preventing the bill from being brought to a vote. Join us in emailing your representatives to tell them to support the bill! buff.ly/4gxdbTY

Mind you, I had just made national news 3 months prior for my CTC poster, and was going viral every day for my yimby posters. Absolute insanity to ask for something so abhorrent, and expect me to do it for free.

Oh I’ve always been gloves off about this incident. She asked me about this when I was a broke college student, and while I thought it was horrible, I inquired about how much she would pay, to which she basically gave me the “paid in exposure” line.

While I also don’t like the fact that so many are celebrating the dudes death, I don’t think the person that once asked me to make her a “mock tourism poster for Florida marketing it as LeperLand” should be allowed to say anything about American’s depravity.

“Stepped up antitrust enforcement” should have meant “scrutinize more small deals that can still have big local anticompetitive effects” not “arbitrarily decide that tech companies are too big.”
