Big thanks to @RVAFilmFest for recognizing my feature screenplay BIGGER IN TEXAS as a RIFF quarterfinalist! I'm honored to be listed among such talented writers.
A well-deserved and well-written profile of @janellecj by @lydiadepillis in @nytimes. Janelle is also friendly and funny but I don’t think she’d want you to know that. nytimes.com/2023/04/13/bus…
@thedigitalyenta I'm Laura, a freelance writer, editor, and proofreader. My writing earned me a screenwriting fellowship, and my editing skills are ACES-certified. I work in a variety of media and I'm taking on new projects for February! laurakroeger.us
Tonight a team of talented actors table read the first five pages of my Shakespearean adaptation set in the halls of Congress, and l couldn't be more thrilled to keep writing! Many thanks to @WIFVDC and @actorscenter

I usually keep these worlds separate, but the truth is, being a photographer has made me a better researcher, and being a researcher has made me a better photographer. Thanks @TheHellerSchool Magazine for the feature! heller.brandeis.edu/news/items/rel…
A new study shows the simple math of why — absent radical measures — the United States' racial wealth gap won't be closing anytime soon. n.pr/3tByQUO
Well that's not fun at all. (Except the wage tracker, now that's fun!)

I'm happy to share this paper @equitablegrowth, the first longitudinal analysis of work schedules that spans all major US industries. I show that workers with unpredictable schedules have less beneficial flexibility and lower job satisfaction than with more predictable schedules.

The Senate’s failure to confirm David Weil to head Wage & Hour enforcement is just awful. Here are 2 things I’m holding onto: (1) he has irrevocably changed the way ppl think abt enforcing workplace laws & ppl all over the country are putting his approach into practice (1/2)

I have a lot to say about Weil not being advanced as head of the DOL Wage & Hour Division (most of it is screaming into the air), but I want to note that companies effectively and illegally exploiting workers is not actually good for the economy. It's deadweight loss.
It is very disturbing that David Weil (@profsheena) was not confirmed. I'm angry and sad. It is difficult to challenge bullies like Uber and some Dems buckled. We really need robust DOL policies on misclassification and much more. @EconomicPolicy
Women were paid 22.1% less on average than men in 2021. It’s long past time we make policy changes that can close the gender pay gap, as well as ongoing wage gaps by race and ethnicity. epi.org/blog/equal-pay…
Wage theft is the most expensive crime in the USA. Fifteeen BILLION dollars are stolen from American workers per year. What is wage theft, and why is this still happening? 1/
We see cops and mayors and other jerks crying about shoplifting and other “law and order” bullshit. Why aren’t they freaking out about wage theft? Wage theft steals more than shoplifting, burglary and other kinds of stealing crimes combined! epi.org/publication/em…
Breaking news: I finished my screenplay
It's hard to capture in words just how grateful I am to see this in print. And I'm grateful to the countless mentors, friends, & loved ones who've supported me along the way. A bit on what this work means to me and what I hope it can mean to the world. 1/7 aeaweb.org/articles?id=10…

EPI’s @eliselgould and @hshierholz offer their initial insights on this morning’s jobs report, which showed 253,000 jobs added in April: The labor market is still strong, but is not showing signs of inflation. epi.org/blog/april-job…
Because of the rising cost of living, $17 today has roughly the same purchasing power as $15 did just two years ago, says EPI president @hshierholz. It is a disgrace that Congress has not raised the wage.
HAPPENING NOW: EPI President @hshierholz joins @SenSanders, @AFLCIO President @LizShuler, @SEIU President @MaryKayHenry, and worker leaders to call for a $17 minimum wage.
Nobody in America can survive on $7.25 an hour, $9 an hour or $12 an hour. It’s time to raise the federal minimum wage to $17 an hour. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
