Weird that the day the sensible idea of raising wages by controlling immigration finally gets a fair hearing in the @NYTimes, the cause is betrayed by @SpeakerMcCarthy and the House GOP (https://t.co/ObNkrGadz0). Stay paranoid! https://t.co/lbIMoOCMxi

Am I missing something or is this a very solid treatment of the immigration issue from @DLeonhardt–at least until the penultimate graf where he says Bden’s trying to “reduce unauthorized immigration” (which Biden’s doing by claiming to authorize it). https://t.co/G01zlqH6bv

This seems like a huge embarrassment for @SpeakerMcCarthy, if actual GOP voters find out about it. Let McCarthy know that you know–(202) 224-3141 and ask for the Speaker’s office. My bet is he can be shamed out of it if enough people complain. https://t.co/Ax4MNjOo8N

.@BLS_gov did a great job hiding the bad news for black workers in its June report. The overall black unemployment rate jumped from 5.6% to 6.0% and BLS says it “showed little change over the month.” (???) It was 4.7% the month before that–so a big 2-month increase. https://t.co/6d2DUXqVEx
