Governor Gretchen Whitmer has overseen record state housing investment, achieving an early milestone of 75,000 new and rehabilitated units before raising the target to 115,000. The state has since logged nearly 87,000 units toward that goal.

For decades, work was designed around a fiction, that of the 'neutral' worker, an abstract individual assumed to be fully available, consistent, rational, and unaffected by bodily constraints. But this neutrality was never real.

Modest investments abroad could advance America's interests at home - by preventing pandemics from reaching our shores, by expanding markets for U.S. goods, by promoting democracy and freedom - all for less than 1% of the federal budget each year.
