No Kings Day was one of the largest days of protest in US history. From deep red small towns to our largest cities, millions of people turned out to make it clear that the American people will not bow to fascism. #NoKings

California Governor Newsom to propose clean vehicle rebate if Trump cuts EV tax credit California Governor Gavin Newsom will propose a new version of the state's discontinued Clean Vehicle Rebate Project if the incoming Donald Trump administration scraps the federal tax credit for electric-vehicle purchases, his office said on Monday.

Mobilization against federal retrenchment creates unexpected political coalitions. A California EV tax credit that excludes Tesla is one such example. Will be interesting to see how much states spend and do that can only happen in opposition to federal inaction. www.reuters.com/business/aut...

When voters had the chance to take a position on environmental protection earlier this month, they answered with a resounding "yes."

So pleased to see our article up! Tl;dr: Democrats responded to their increasingly affluent & diverse electorate with an agenda that extends new benefits but not additional taxes to higher income Americans & aims to redress racial & gender inequality in these same econ programs

Staggering to contemplate. Could be president again in 408 days.

Is there any doubt that when we look back in time, everyone will agree that the post-pandemic rise and fall in inflation was a widespread, global phenomenon that had little to do with country-specific explanations?

This project took almost a decade to complete. Big thanks to my co-authors Emma Franzblau, Jessica Lovering, and Chris Miljanich. And to all the students who received course credit or financial compensation to help us dig through the massive pile of data!
