The Mar-a-Lago documents case, ways to lower climate risk in U.S. housing, and findings on school choice.
| Can school choice support district-led efforts to foster diverse schools? School choice is a central feature in contemporary K-12 educational policy in the United States. While the implications of school choice for quality and equity are contested, scholars generally agree that it contributes to racial and socioeconomic school segregation. Rachel M. Perera and co-authors examine the roles of policy design and families’ school choices—and the implications of this interaction for segregation in elementary schools in North Carolina’s Wake County Public School System. |
| How to nudge Americans to reduce their housing exposure to climate risks Americans can reduce their physical and financial exposure to climate risk by moving to safer locations, renovating their homes, or purchasing disaster insurance. But many people are not pursuing these strategies yet. Julia Gill and Jenny Schuetz examine why and discuss how policymakers can encourage these moves. |
| The latest indictment in the Mar-a-Lago documents case “The new indictment does not shake the heavens or rock the ground, but it does name a new defendant, describe a new fact pattern, add some significant new charges, and add an additional highly-classified document to the 31 charged in the original indictment,” write Scott R. Anderson and co-authors about a superseding indictment in the Mar-a-Lago documents case against Donald Trump. |
