This is one of my favorite stories I've done with @tradeoffspod. Please take some time to listen to Lee's story and how policymakers are trying to help people like him.
The transition from incarceration back to the community can be dangerous — even deadly. This week, we explore why states from California to West Virginia are turning to Medicaid as a possible solution. tradeoffs.org/2023/02/23/med…

The sheer breadth and necessity of Hannah Natanson’s reporting on the federal workforce over the past year just can’t be overstated. So many people have taken risks to allow her to reveal important information that the country wouldn’t otherwise know. And now her phone and laptops have been seized by the FBI.

This week on @tradeoffspod, we look at all the ways the federal government is making it harder for transgender people to get health care. And an Alabama family talks about how anti-trans policies have made their lives harder. “It's really scary." tradeoffs.org/2025/07/17/tra…

People often describe the big health care lobbies as all-powerful. But they were largely ineffective this time.
The health policy reforms in OBBB required Congress to overcome fierce opposition from powerful health care special interest groups that profit from the status quo and lobby aggressively to preserve the flow of government subsidies into their coffers.

If you're a D.C. Library user, be aware: @dcpl says it is likely going to have to reduce opening hours at neighborhood branches, from the current 61 hours a week to 40 hours. Branches would also go from being open seven days a week to five days.

By deleting a few imp words from the E&C bill, the reconciliation bill the Hse Rules cmte is likely to advance creates an unconscionable decision for states: end health coverage for lawfully residing immigrant kids & pregnant adults or face steep federal Medicaid $ cuts.
