Dr. Erika McEntarfer has devoted her career to public service. She has conducted herself as BLS Commissioner with great integrity. There is no evidence whatsoever that BLS data are politically biased.

My latest on the Reconciliation bill and its work requirements:
"Trumpβs legislation may truly be enormous, but it is far from pretty β it stigmatizes the wrong people, slashes the wrong programs and will hurt far more Americans than it helps."

πWhat if early educators were paid like K-12 teachers? New evidence from Washington, DC shows what would happen: more stability in the child care workforce, higher-quality caregiving, and greater mental health and financial well-being for early educators.π

This handy NIH explainer about why indirects are so important--that is why they are critical for the research enterprise-- is worth a listen. It directly contradicts the statement, and justification for the cut, it issued last night. nexus.od.nih.gov/all/2015/09/...
