“I think that people on the far Left have got in their minds that carbon is the worst thing ever. Well, Texas is one of the first states in the country to put carbon capture rules in place, and we’re leading in the country in using carbon capture technology.”
— Christi Craddick, Texas railroad commissioner, on the importance of innovation ([link removed])

** Keystone XL Pipeline Cancellation Is an Environmental Disaster ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
Recently, the Canadian pipeline company that was building the Keystone XL pipeline canceled the project. This isn’t surprising: President Joe Biden spared no time to revoke the pipeline’s permit through an executive order. Described as so villainous by the Biden administration and climate activists, the pipeline not only would have provided thousands of good-paying jobs and helped to increase our energy security ([link removed]) , but it would also have produced net-zero emissions. In other words, canceling the Keystone XL pipeline isn’t just an economic disaster for America—it’s an environmental disaster. Share this story. ([link removed])

** Public Policies Should Reward Work, Not Compete With It ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
* Work is an equalizer. The best antidote to poverty across all racial groups is a full-time job. Pro-growth economic policies have grown income from bottom-percentile Americans faster than top-income earners.
* Work is a hand up, not a hand out. Of course, during emergencies, government assistance is a vital lifeline, and no one wants fellow Americans in poverty. But we also cannot incentivize poverty through policies that create a permanent sense of hopelessness.
* Low-wage work is a stepping stone. Though critics assail lower-paying jobs, these opportunities allow workers to gain confidence, skills, and ability to advance through promotions and new employment roles.

** Critical Race Theory ([link removed])

[link removed]
Some schools are pushing divisive and damaging curricula on race, teaching kids as young as elementary school about critical race theory and “white privilege,” and even dividing them into “affinity groups” based on race.
We must stop the indoctrination of students before it’s too late.

** Congress Steps up Antitrust Crusade With Bills Against Big Tech ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
Congress has followed through on threats to impose new regulations on Big Tech by introducing five antitrust bills aimed at limiting the power and size of Amazon, Apple, Facebook, and Google. These bills would restrict how these tech titans operate and the services they provide. The (unintended) impact may be to hurt consumers and smaller businesses in ways that no one would want.

** Massive, $400 Billion Unemployment Fraud During Pandemic ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
A stunning half of all unemployment money–up to $400 billion–was stolen by criminals during the COVID pandemic. The eye-popping level of theft is even more reason for states to cut off early the $300 in weekly extra federal unemployment money. In addition to disincentivizing work, emergency pandemic benefits are fraud magnets.
