Mirroring FDR's vision, @JosephEStiglitz is reframing the concept of freedom in a positive sense: Broadening one's opportunities directly increases one's freedom. In his latest, @JohnCassidy covers the inspiration for & ideas within Stiglitz's new book: newyorker.com/news/our-colum…
ICYMI ➡️ This month we hosted a virtual discussion that explored how rewriting the tax code can curb the excessive economic power of large corporations, with opening remarks from @SenWarren. Watch the full recording 👇 youtu.be/YRTasjnMSyI
No one’s truly free without rules and regulations. Counterintuitive? Think stoplights. Without them, pandemonium and gridlock. With them, I stop so you can drive through, and vice versa. We both have the freedom to move about with fewer traffic jams and accidents. This same idea…
Alito has made a lot of strained arguments over the years. But this one - that making sitting Presidents obey the law could "destabilize the functioning of our country as a democracy" - is as upside-down as it is extreme and dangerous. nytimes.com/live/2024/04/2…
History made, victory to be celebrated. Banning non-competes is part and parcel of (ahem, perfectly lawful) efforts to create a more innovative and participatory economy for all. Kudos to all you great people who worked so hard on this rule.

💸 Wealth taxation isn't just about revenue—it's about reshaping economic power. By disincentivizing the hoarding of market power by ultra-wealthy individuals, a #WealthTax could serve as an antimonopoly tool. Learn more from @NikoLusiani & @EmDiVito ⬇️ rooseveltinstitute.org/publications/c…
What do high prices and tax policy have in common? More than you may think. On Tax Day, our Executive Director @owenslindsay1 explains — WATCH:

The hits just keep on coming.
BREAKING: The FCC just voted to restore net neutrality. The commission has decided to fully restore the net neutrality rules repealed under Trump. This decision will help ensure fair access to an open internet for all.
This cartoon-ish (but common) imagining is so tired: near every authoritarian regime today holds “elections”+proclaims popular support. But the more striking blindspot is our own history: the Jim Crow South didn’t stop having elections—they just made sure only one party could win
The idea that 2024 will be the last democratic election if Trump wins is disinformation on the order of the 2020 election being stolen. If people are this confident in this, they should be willing to put money on the 2028 election being canceled.

To the FTC rulemaking naysayers, it’s important to remember that the FTC Act (and the Clayton Act) were enacted with the express purpose to remove the ability of the judiciary to structure the economy in its image. As the landmark Cummins Reports stated:
Its economic liberty week! - UAW victory in Chattanooga - new DOL overtime rule - a full ban on noncompetes Worker power on the rise in America.
Chair @linakhanFTC credits earlier state non-compete bans for generating the economic evidence to support today's non-compete ban
An immense effort by @FTC to lift workers' wages, improve benefits, boost innovation, enable workplace mobility, and reshape economic opportunity for American workers. Working with brilliant agency staff on this transformative rule was a life honor! ftc.gov/news-events/ne…
New FTC Commissioner Holyoak (R) does not believe the FTC has authority to issue rules under FTC Act 6(g). FTC Act Section 6(g): The Commission shall also have power ... to make rules and regulations for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this subchapter.
Noncompetes are now banned! This is what worker-centered policy looks like. Note" The average worker’s earnings will rise an estimated extra $524 per year." #WorkerPower
