The US has had 130 mass shootings since the start of 2023 and 13 occurred at schools. In 86 days, 63 children have died from gun violence. To paraphrase Mandela, there is no keener revelation of the GOP’s soul than the way it treats its guns versus the way it treats its children.

So excited to see this happy news! usda.gov/media/press-re…

1/July 4 is an especially good day to read this important and troubling paper by @jhacova. The paper documents the long shadow of racial violence on voting behavior and makes a compelling case that lynchings continue to affect cultural voting norms. aeaweb.org/articles?id=10…

I am thrilled to announce that as of July 1, I am rejoining Tufts. I look forward to working with my new colleagues. It has been a pleasure to be at RAND and Pardee RAND Graduate School the last 22 years, and I will continue as adjunct at both.

Yes! A resounding yes to this! How can we address the teen mental health crisis when we continue to sleep-deprive teens with early #schoolstarttimes?
