  • Freedom delayed is still freedom worth honoring. Today we remember the enslaved Americans who waited more than two years to learn they were free, and the people who never stopped fighting to make that freedom real. Happy Juneteenth, Arizona!

  • If you've applied to jobs and heard nothing back, you're not crazy. Companies are posting openings they never plan to fill. It wastes your time and warps the data we use to read the economy. I'm pushing the Labor Department and FTC to find out how bad it is.
