My recommendation to Congress about attaching the misnamed Railway Safety Act to the Surface Transportation Bill is to kick this amendment in the Caboose. wsj.com/opinion/jd-van…

I'm delighted to be moderating a panel at the @FreeConTalk conference on May 20, asking the question "What has conservatism ever conserved?" Featuring @DominicJPino @tonywoodlief and @PhilWMagness Tough questions will be asked. Solid answers will be given.

WATCH: CEI's @PaigeLambermont is set to testify NOW before the Subcommittee on Investigations and Oversight of the House Science, Space, & Technology Committee on expanding America's data center infrastructure: science.house.gov/hearings?ID=17…

A new OPM rule establishes “Schedule Policy/Career” for certain executive branch employees with policy-determining roles. The reform reflects a long bipartisan effort to ensure federal agencies can effectively implement administration priorities without altering the broader merit-based civil service. @SeanGHiggins cei.org/blog/yes-execu…

Interesting old @SeanGHiggins interview with Scott Adams. washingtonexaminer.com/news/2095689/d…

Today commemorates the birth of Fred L. Smith Jr. We honor the founder of CEI, a lifelong champion of capitalism whose ideas on innovation, dignity, and free markets continue to shape the world. cei.org/news_releases/…

Two interesting points here about the new jobs report, via @SeanGHiggins of @ceidotorg

CEI backs the SCORE Act, which lets college athletes profit from their name, image, and likeness. It also allows them to hire agents without being treated as employees. @SeanGHiggins cei.org/news_releases/…

CEI’s @SeanGHiggins reports that the NLRB’s inability to function has created an opening for states like California & New York to take over labor-law enforcement. The approach may not hold up in court, but the federal paralysis gives these states a short-term chance to advance pro-union actions.cei.org/blog/new-york-…

@freethe_economy podcast has a new look and Episode 150 is out now!! Hosted by CEI's @RichardMorrison, the show explores the intersection of news, policy, and economics with writers, policymakers, and free thinkers. Listen here: youtube.com/watch?v=CYNdCD…

The latest jobs report shows a 119k gain in September, but CEI’s @RegoftheDay says inflation and tariff turmoil are holding the labor market back. CEI’s @SeanGHiggins adds that shaky trade policy and downward revisions to summer data show the recovery is still on thin ice. cei.org/news_releases/…

This I believe, liberty is for everyone. It is a universal precept. Across time and space, it is always true.

In Washington’s regulatory graveyard, the Code of Federal Regulations rests in pieces but beware the ghoul-idance documents and memo-mummies clawing out of their shallow graves to haunt policymakers. 👻@wayne_crews @Forbes cei.org/opeds_articles…

The Senate advanced one of Trump’s NLRB nominees but delayed another, leaving the Board unable to act. With the NLRB stalled, states like California and New York are stepping in potentially reshaping labor law. @SeanGHiggins cei.org/blog/impasse-o…

President Trump’s $100,000 fee on H1-B visas is like a tariff on foreign workers. It aims to make it harder for companies to hire skilled immigrants and protect American jobs. This move could slow innovation, & increase costs. @SeanGHiggins cei.org/blog/the-white…

It was my pleasure to talk with Richard about the origins of abundance, planning the recent conference, and more.

The #EPA and Corps will be coming out with a new proposed #WOTUS rule soon. Let’s hope they take advantage of this opportunity to finally develop a WOTUS rule that is workable, durable, and consistent with the rule of law. @EPA tinyurl.com/se5ptv9p

Access to banking is essential to freedom. President Trump recently signed an executive order to confront debanking. CEI has been leading the fight on this issue. Here are some highlights:

@jeremylottdiary Grok had it right the first time.
