More Women Bearing the Brunt of COVID Vaccine Reactions and Injury: According to a February 2021 study published in JAMA,1 during the first month that the shots were made available, women experienced 94 percent of the 66 reported cases of anaphylaxis severe allergic reactions to the experimental mRNA shots.2 Women also accounted for the first six cases of severe blood clots with low platelet counts after the roll-out of Johnson & Johnson/Janssen’s adenovirus vectored Ad26.COV2.S COVID vaccine, which prompted officials at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to temporarily pause use of the vaccine in mid-April 2021.

Accounting Board Should Resist Politicizing Tax Disclosure Rules: The Financial Accounting Standards Board has decided to risk its credibility by proposing tax-disclosure requirements that serve the interests of politicians rather than the investors it exists to inform.

Florida Professor Fired for Racial Justice Lessons Hits Back: Samuel Joeckel was fired in March after a parent complained he was “indoctrinating” students with racial justice lessons. “PBA’s decision to terminate my employment was motivated by race,” he said, “and I look forward to working with the EEOC as they investigate the unlawful actions taken by PBA.” “I am hopeful that this will not only right the wrongs that PBA committed against me,” he continued, “but also protect faculty members at PBA and other schools.”

# Employment / Labor
The Bad Family Leave Policy Sweeping the Nation: State governments are trying to use payroll taxes to fund family and medical leave entitlements, and workers will again come out on the losing end of this bargain. When taxpayers see the dollars they put into a government program twice a month on their pay stubs, they want to ensure that money is there when they retire. Unfortunately, there never seems to be enough revenue to cover empty government promises, causing the inevitable worry that taxpayers will never see their contributions returned.

A New Path for Gig Workers? A new law in Utah could be the first bill to expand opportunities for gig workers without robbing them of their independent status. Whether an individual is looking to supplement their household income or shift entirely away from the day-to-day grind of office work, the gig economy can be a no-strings-attached option to achieve both these goals. Gig work can serve as a springboard for individuals looking to earn extra income. They can supplement and diversify the income with tasks they enjoy, at rates they set, on a schedule they determine.

Georgia National Guard Will Use Phone Location Tracking to Recruit High School Children: The ad campaign will make use of a variety of surveillance advertising techniques, including capturing the unique device IDs of student phones, tracking pixels, and IP address tracking. It will also plaster recruiting solicitations across Instagram, Snapchat, streaming television, and music apps. The campaign plans not only call for broadcasting recruitment ads to kids at school, but also for pro-Guard ads to follow these students around as they continue using the internet and other apps, a practice known as retargeting. While the state’s plan specifies targeting only high school juniors and seniors ages 17 and above, demographic ad targeting is known to be error prone, and experts told The Intercept it’s possible the recruiting messages could reach the phones of younger children.
