β€œYour argument turns our justice system into a catch me if you can kind of regime from the standpoint of the Executive where everybody has to have a lawyer and file a lawsuit in order for the government to stop violating people’s rights.”

I'm on a listserv to receive weekly funding opportunities from the #NIH, which is usually long and descriptive. This is what it says now. I've NEVER seen it like this before. #SaveOurScience

More than the price of eggs, milk, housing, healthcare, or education. More than general inflation. The biggest reason people struggle financially is our rising income and wealth inequality.

Happy Social Work Month!

More students in #SocialWork practicums report losing weight due to food insecurity than receive any kind of $$ compensation for 400+ hours of labor.

1/4 of practicum students are at very low food security, with less than 40% of students food secure.

Washington is full of rule-following valedictorians who were inspired by the West Wing and did Model UN and moot court and studied their heroes and who believe in using government to help people.

That's nice, but you need to learn how to swing on the illiterate bullies who steal lunch money.

Being born into poverty negatively affects children’s behavior Children born into poor families are more likely to act out. But children from well off families misbehave when raised in poor neighborhoods.

"When children are very young, children and their families are highly affected by the lack of safety and resources, such as access to daycare, quality education, and stable jobs, in poor neighborhoods." -Soobin Kim, UGA's School of Social Work postdoctoral researcher.
