Not only are we losing domestic and agricultural workers due to Florida's anti-immigrant law, but we're also losing them due to meager wages & unsafe conditions. The implications for South Florida will be devastating. Give @FloridaPolicy a follow for the facts! #flapol

Florida's 112,000+ domestic workers face meager wages, unsafe & unstable working conditions, scant benefits, & lack of protections afforded to other working people. It's long past time to right these wrongs. @SocialPsychA #sayfie Learn more 👇👇👇 floridapolicy.org/posts/a-bill-o…

Minnesota may be on the verge of a huge blow to corporate tax avoiders. But corporate lobbyists are now out in force trying to derail these important reforms. @gardmaf explains what's happening.

POLICY MATTERS: Families hear about $7,500 for private school education, and they envision the doors of Heritage Hall or Holland Hall swinging wide open for their children. But, buyer beware. That tax credit falls short of their tuition by about $15,000. bit.ly/44PiOYr

Child labor violations are way up in Kentucky, & 14 states have recently introduced legislation weakening child labor protections. Instead KY should strengthen these laws & do more to help all kids get the childhood they deserve. New analysis here: kypolicy.org/kentucky-child…

A new conference report making it harder for hungry Kansans to receive the food assistance they need is headed to the floor. 1 in 10 Kansans are going hungry today. Instead of helping, this bill does the opposite. #ksleg should reject the CCR on HB 2094 and vote NO

@BellPolicy's latest installment in our In the Know series is on Colorado school finance. It's the single largest general fund expense -- and it has been funded at $10 billion less than constitutionally required over the last 12 years. #coleg #copolitics bit.ly/3TXipOy
