Washington shut down small businesses. Now it wants its money back

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Washington ordered businesses to close. It then lent many of those businesses money to survive the closures. Six years later, the government wants its money back — even from business owners who never recovered. These were not ordinary business loans taken during ordinary economic circumstances. Government closure and operating restrictions intensified […]

Downplaying antisemitism and demonizing Zionism: How Rutgers replaced inquiry with activism

On Aug. 18, Rutgers Law School’s Center for Security, Race and Rights released a podcast episode about antisemitism. For anyone familiar with the center’s work, much of the discussion would have sounded all too familiar. Jewish students’ fear over slogans widely interpreted as antisemitic is acknowledged, then largely explained away. Antisemitism complaints filed through federal […]

The SEC’s paperless default would leave older investors behind

The Securities and Exchange Commission wants to modernize how people receive important financial information. But its proposed Regulation E-Delivery confuses modernization with compulsion and would place the greatest burden on the investors least prepared to bear it. Today, investors generally receive documents required under federal securities laws on paper unless they affirmatively choose electronic delivery. […]

Your job is AI-proof. Your tax dollars aren’t

A month ago, on Real Time with Bill Maher, Maher spoke with Mike Rowe about the enormous demand for qualified tradespeople. It was serendipitous that the conversation came as white-collar workers and lawmakers are confronting a different question: What happens to American workers as artificial intelligence transforms the economy? The debate about the future of […]

Bad medicine: Why New York’s drug fix is the wrong prescription

New Yorkers know the affordability crisis all too well: Rent is among the highest in the country, taxes take a hefty bite out of paychecks, and even routine household expenses can feel like luxury purchases. For many New Yorkers, prescription drugs are another unavoidable expense, with the average person spending over $100 a month on […]

Stop doing Hamas’s propaganda work: Why anti-Muslim hate sabotages Israel

The pro-Israel movement cannot defeat Islamist extremism by embracing hatred of Muslims. Yet as the Abraham Accords approach their sixth anniversary, a loud faction within the movement is doing precisely that and threatening one of the most consequential achievements it claims to defend. This faction insists it is protecting Israel. But when its rhetoric stops […]

Why candidates are learning they don’t have to debate

Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs (D-AZ) should debate her Republican opponent, Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ). I also understand why she won’t. Four years ago, Hobbs refused to debate Republican Kari Lake during their race for governor. She took plenty of criticism for it. Reporters repeatedly pressed her to reconsider. Hobbs argued that appearing onstage with Lake […]

China is eating our lunch in Latin America. Trump’s new coalition is the cure

Washington has spent too long treating Latin America as a problem to be managed rather than a strategic neighborhood to be strengthened. As the United States approaches the 2026 midterm elections, policymakers should recognize an opportunity hiding in plain sight: expanding the Shield of the Americas into a durable hemispheric partnership spanning security, energy, critical […]

Gen Z isn’t lazy. We just locked them out of the workforce

Every successful career begins with someone opening a door. A manager hired us before we had all the experience. A mentor taught us what no classroom could. An employer trusted us with greater responsibility. We learned, made mistakes, and climbed from one opportunity to the next. I know what that first opportunity can mean. At […]

The insidious 2% target: How the Fed quietly taxes retirees and homeowners

The Federal Reserve set 2% as its long-term inflation target in 2012. According to the St. Louis Fed website, the Fed believes “the economy can run efficiently when inflation is low and stable” and “people can hold money without having to worry that high inflation will erode its purchasing power.”  The insidious impact on retirees […]
