Wow!
The “official” poverty guidelines were quite problematic. But hard to see how eligibility for Medicaid & other programs will be determined given they were based on these guidelines.

The team at HHS that produces the annual federal poverty guideline was eliminated on 4/1. These are used to determine eligibility for major federal & state safety net programs such as SNAP, Medicaid, and child care subsidies. Numbers released in Jan 2025: aspe.hhs.gov/topics/pover...

The field of gender and sexual minority (LGBTQ) health is being erased. Hundreds of ongoing NIH grants being immediately terminated. Deb Umberson and my decade long longitudinal study on marriage and health joined the termination list last night.

The current administration is straight up censoring the scientific record by requiring authors to alter an already-accepted research paper because it uses banned words such as "gender" and "equitable" and presents data broken down by sexual orientation.
We were asked to change language and delete data from a paper that already been through peer review successfully - "in order to comply with the Executive Order."
This is from the official journal of the US Surgeon General and the US Public Health Service.

So it happened. We have officially withdrawn a paper accepted for publication in a scientific journal because of editorial requests to remove language deemed out of compliance with executive orders.

🚨 Policy works! 🚨
Low-wage workers saw dramatically fast wage growth from 2019-2023—even after accounting for inflation—largely because of federal and state policy measures like COVID relief and minimum wage increases. This is in stark contrast to prior decades. 🧵 1/4

Erbschaftssteuer: Warum Frauen weniger erben und trotzdem mehr Steuern zahlen
Egal, wie reich Frauen werden, Männer sind im Schnitt reicher. Das liegt nicht nur am Gender-Pay-Gap, sondern auch daran, wie die deutsche Steuer Frauen diskriminiert.
