🚨 NEW EPISODE From D.C. Across the Americas 🇨🇴 🇺🇸 This week, CEPR research fellow Mario Osorio analyzes the recent Petro-Trump meeting, where U.S.-Colombia relations go from here, and why everyone should pay attention to Colombia's upcoming elections in May.

"Winning" on affordability means raising wages, putting more money in everyday people's pockets, ending profit-driven healthcare, ending unjust wars, and ceasing policies that cater to the interests the ultra-rich.

"The challenges we face today, from drug trafficking to mass deportations to mass migration to climate change, cannot be solved through domination and military intervention. They require real partnerships based on mutual respect and mutual collaboration." -  @velazquez.house.gov

Private sector union membership has collapsed — from 16.5% in 1985 to just 5.9% today. That's barely a third of what it was. West Virginia, Indiana, and Michigan were hit hardest. Workers have been losing power for 40 years. More from @hcbrown.bsky.social: https://bit.ly/4rmZKL5

Low- and middle-income countries are straddled with crippling public debt, hamstringing efforts to combat the climate crisis. At this week's IMF Spring Meetings, CEPR is calling attention to this issue. Ivana Vasic Lalovic breaks it down for this week's episode of "From D.C. Across the Americas."

CEPR hosted a Hill briefing last Friday titled: "Cuba in Crisis: What Congress Needs to Know" Here, former Obama aide @rhodesben.bsky.social discusses how sanctions hamstring Cuba's economic reform and why @democrats.org should be more outspoken on the use of sanctions as collective punishment.

Congress just reintroduced the Healthy Families Act—7 days of paid sick leave for private sector workers. Wild that in 2026 this is still a fight. Massive thanks to @delauro.house.gov & @sanders.senate.gov  for leading the charge alongside 165+ congressional members. Working people deserve better.

Union membership dropped from 18% to 10% since 1985 and every state declined but Vermont. As federal protections erode, states and localities must step up to defend worker power. bit.ly/4tSeRhU

🚨 NEW EPISODE of... "From D.C. Across the Americas" This week: co-director @MarkWeisbroton US sanctions "The US has enormous power over the international financial system, which makes US sanctions much more powerful, and therefore, deadly." FULL VIDEO: https://tinyurl.com/2w648f6w

88 profitable corporations paid $0 taxes last year. Meanwhile, capital gains breaks keep protecting the wealthy while workers pay in full. @itep.org  @amyhanauer.bsky.social breaks down the three biggest problems with the US tax code. #econsky full #mostlyeconomics ep: https://bit.ly/4tVbbuW
