Remember this at VP debate, Kamala Harris is no moderate on health care
Fox Business | Sally C. Pipes
October 7, 2020
If he wins this November, the former vice president will be 78-years-old when he takes the oath of office. He’s bound to be considered a lame duck from the day he is sworn in. And that may mark the moment when Kamala Harris abandons the pretense that she is some kind of moderate on health care.

Irresponsible Bravado Leads to the Spread of COVID-19.
Human Events | Henry Miller, M.S., M.D.
October 5, 2020
Estimates like this underpin a narrative that large segments of the country are unable to get medical care in the midst of the pandemic. But the number of Americans without access to care — or coverage — is smaller than these numbers suggest.

DATE CHANGE – Winning the Water Wars ([link removed])
Join Veteran Journalist Steven Greenhut for a conversation on his new PRI book, Winning the Water Wars.
Tuesday, October 27 - 11:00 AM to 12 PM PDT ([link removed])
“Whiskey is for drinking and water is for fighting” is one of the more iconic quotes attributed to water management in the West. Few issues carve up competing political, economic, and geographic interests quicker than water, especially in California.
Join us on Tuesday, October 27, 2020 at 11 AM for a conversation with veteran journalist Steven Greenhut on all things water conservation, storage, and infrastructure, as well as talk about his new PRI book, Winning the Water Wars.
Greenhut’s new book explores water infrastructure solutions beyond storage and dams and examines the importance of water pricing and trading, regulatory reforms, desalination, wastewater treatment, and more.
One focus of the book explores the ongoing water policy debate between agricultural interests advocating increased storage, and environmental advocates who oppose these projects in the name of habitat restoration. Greenhut argues that California water policy should be based on a policy of abundance, which would more effectively protect endangered fish than flushing water out to sea. The book also looks at how free-market water market reforms could better facilitate water transfers and trading.
