Happy #PrideMonth from the #CatoInstitute! “All the advances in #HumanRights that we’ve seen in American #history—abolitionism, #feminism, #CivilRights, #gay rights—stem from our founding ideas of life, #liberty, and the pursuit of happiness,” writes @CatoInstitute Distinguished Senior Fellow David Boaz about the history of #LGBT rights in the modern era.

#LGBT individuals can be open about who they are to an unprecedented degree—and it’s worth celebrating how much progress we’ve made on this front...

Have you ever felt like you would be penalized for expressing your views in your workplace, neighborhood or with friends or family?

Six years ago today, #EricGarner died in a #PoliceChokehold after he resisted an attempt to arrest him for selling individual cigarettes — “loosies” — on the street. Garner had previously been arrested more than 30 times, most often for selling cigarettes on the street. Why do people sell cigarettes on the street?

Today’s book recommendation is a collection of essays by @catoinstitute writers. As a movement, libertarians can often be too much “change” and not enough “hope.” This book outlines many solutions for building a libertarian society.

A group of CGO fellows was able to attend a private Q&A session with Michael D. Tanner last week. Tanner is the author of The Inclusive Economy and a Senior Fellow at the Cato Institute.

Verified The U.S. oil industry has certainly seen better days. Surging production by Russia and Saudi Arabia along with a sharp drop in demand due to the COVID-19 #pandemic have pushed global #oil benchmark prices to nearly $20 per barrel. The last time oil prices were that low Bill Clinton was president. #PresidentTrump is meeting with the heads of several U.S. oil producers today to discuss options for #economic relief. One of the measures reportedly under consideration is a temporary waiver of the #JonesAct.

E o trabalho segue ja que estou acompanhando de perto com minha equipe, e com a atencao do meu suplente @linozinn, o desenrolar do absurdo pacote de projetos do Marchezan de transporte e mobilidade, que pegou a todos de surpresa com convocacoes extraordinarias ineditas! . #recesso #politicasemferias #novonapratica #novo30 #camozzato #fotododia #legislativo #politica #liberalismo #liberais #e
