📢 Happy to announce that tomorrow I begin my new role as the Deputy Director of Social Policy at the @NiskanenCenter, working with @JoshuaTMcCabe. I'm very excited to learn as much as I can about the team and work with this amazing group of people!

Thanks to @RepDavidValadao's leadership, parents are one step closer to receiving much-needed support as they welcome a new member into their families.

The legislation would provide up to $2,000 to support parents, as many experience a dip in income.

@LeahLibresco @IFP Hope your first day was amazing!

More states are starting to tackle their Unemployment Insurance solvency crises with durable reforms. In a new commentary, @NicholsonSoc highlights Kansas' successful efforts to expand their taxable wage base. ⤵️

We know that a new bundle of joy 👩🏼‍🍼 also comes with a bundle of new costs 💰. Niskanen is proud to support bipartisan efforts to better help working parents get off to a good start. ⤵️

Proud to support the VICTIM Act. Thank you to @SenJohnKennedy, @SenBooker, @RepDwightEvans, and @RepDonBacon for your leadership.

[Niskanen Center @NiskanenCenter]

We commend @RepDavidValadao, @RepTomSuozzi, @RepBlakeMoore, and @RepDebDingell for their leadership on legislation that would provide critical support for parents right when they need it most.

We applaud the introduction of the Supporting Newborn Parents Act — a bipartisan bill in the House that would give new parents a $2,000 newborn tax credit. This would be a HUGE step forward for families, as @leahlibresco explains 🧵

[Niskanen Center @NiskanenCenter]

🚨🚨🚨 Big news: Senators @SenJohnKennedy & @SenBooker and Reps. @RepDwightEvans & @RepDonBacon have just reintroduced the VICTIM Act in the U.S. Congress!

This bipartisan legislation will help law enforcement solve more violent crimes, and we're honored to have worked with these sponsors to develop it.

I really enjoyed this conversation with @OliviaWKosloff for her substack and newsletter, Acute Condition.

We covered all the ways in which payment policies and licensing regulation contribute to America's physician shortages:

Congress can do more to deliver the affordable homes that Americans need.

As the ROAD Act moves ahead, the House and Senate should look to combine their best ideas.

[Andrew Justus👷🏼‍♂️🏘🏙🏗 @AWJustus]

Much is uncertain in our world today, but Congress has the opportunity to enact an ambitious housing supply package that will make a substantial dent in our housing shortage. But it needs a few tweaks to be all it can be. Let's walk through a few 🧵 1/

The average American spends half their budget on housing and transportation. Congress can fix it: reward housing growth, connect people to opportunity, and cut infrastructure costs. 🏠🚌

“Transmission is what allows that coordination to happen and ensures every American has access to affordable power.

Right now, our system is not built to do that well.”

[Niskanen Center @NiskanenCenter]

An interstate power line can take over a decade to permit — because approval rests with individual states, sometimes individual counties.

Dr. Liza Reed testified before the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee today on what Congress can do:

⚡Establish a narrow and clear federal authority to build interregional transmission
⚡Remove market barriers to advanced technologies like HVDC
⚡Enable competition so private developers can build without state monopoly protections blocking them

A grid that grows the economy, provides affordable energy, and keeps American industry competitive. That's what's on the table.
