This paper is very close to my heart on many fronts: my first @feministeconomics.bsky.social paper, my first collaboration with my beloved co-author Prof. Ilkkaracan, from whom I learn big time and enjoy working with, and we wrote the first draft while I was pregnant with my first kid #EconSky

Seems like a good time to remind everyone that 122,700 people age 13+ call Texas home. A new bill would make it a felony to identify their gender differently from their sex assigned at birth on official government documents or with employers. bit.ly/TranspeopleUS
Texas bill would make identifying as transgender a felony punishable by jail
The bill, while unlikely to pass, highlights the increasing extremism of legislation targeting trans people, especially in Texas, in recent years.

The Federal Reserve is not as independent from the executive branch as we’d like to think. The NY Fed just cancelled this Thursday’s @aeacswep.bsky.social reception at #EEA2025 and withdrew from our summer fellowship program. Both support women and underrepresented groups in economics. #EconSky
