@SeanReyesUT if you want to look for voter fraud, maybe we should look into ballots cast in your favor as well? Because if there is any voter fraud, all ballots should be suspect, don’t you think?

Covid-19 has been a catastrophe for working parents and we are too tired to ask for humane considerations. https://t.co/XpQnJyE1Vo

[Gwendolyn Reynolds @gwendoesdata]

This will have a huge impact on families and women specifically.

[Sorenson Impact @Sorenson_Impact]

"The #coronavirus pandemic has devastated the #childcare industry". According to @amprog 50 percent of licensed childcare centers are at risk of #closing permanently, which @Mark_Shriver says will be "decimating to our overall #recovery". https://t.co/MznypeN4Dk

Our students are thoughtful and talented and this blog about systemic and personal racism is timely and insightful.

[Sorenson Impact @Sorenson_Impact]

[Darren Walker @darrenwalker]

We must make it our mission to save lives—to rush in where others turn away, take brave and extraordinary action, and attend to the emergency at hand. My full reflection on the moment: https://t.co/TRZaNS8FzT

We were all expecting the NBER to call a recession, but I am somewhat surprised it started even before the majority of the country shutdown.

[Gwendolyn Reynolds @gwendoesdata]
