Diverse Perspectives on U.S. Policies and Systems

Diverse Perspectives on U.S. Policies and Systems

Several authors have shared their thoughts on different aspects of U.S. policies and systems.

Carlos Lozada from The New York Times talks about how President Donald Trump's ideas about the U.S. being a successful country are not matching the reality, especially concerning immigration and ICE.

Kendra Van de Water and Mona Baishya from The Philadelphia Inquirer discuss how juvenile probation in the U.S. is not giving young people the second chances it promises, but rather trapping them.

Mike Dombeck and others from The Hill emphasize the importance of protecting national forests, regardless of political leadership.

Shaquille Nelson from The Progressive points out the gaps in the U.S. social safety net that leave many people vulnerable.

Each author calls for changes to make these systems more effective and fair.
