China’s Engagement in the Pacific Islands: Implications for the United States.
U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission, June 14, 2018, 36 pages.
“Since President Xi took office in 2013, Beijing has significantly bolstered its involvement in the Pacific Islands region, which comprises three U.S. territories and three countries freely associated with the United States that are important for U.S. defense interests in the Indo-Pacific. Much of China’s engagement in the region has focused on expanding economic ties with the Pacific Islands, but it has also increased its footprint in the diplomatic and security realms. This report examines China’s interests in the region, its comprehensive engagement in the Pacific Islands, and the implications of its expanding presence and influence for the United States.” (From U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission)

Effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act: A Preliminary Analysis.
Brooking Institution, June 14, 2018, 48 pages.
“This report summarize the provisions of the bill and provide preliminary analysis of their effects. The authors also find that TCJA will stimulate the economy in the near term, but the long-term impact on gross domestic product (GDP) will be small. The impact will be smaller on gross national product (GNP) than on GDP because the law will generate net capital inflows from abroad that have to be repaid in the future.” (From the Brookings Institution)

U.S. Population Keeps Growing, but House of Representatives is same size as in Taft era.
Pew Research Center, May 31, 2018, 5 pages.
“The U.S. House of Representatives has one voting member for every 747,000 or so Americans. That’s by far the highest population-to-representative ratio among a peer group of industrialized democracies, and the highest it’s been in U.S. history. And with the size of the House capped by law and the country’s population continually growing, the representation ratio likely will only get bigger. In the century-plus since the number of House seats first reached its current total of 435, the representation ratio has more than tripled – from one representative for every 209,447 people in 1910 to one for every 747,184 as of last year.” (From Pew Research Center)

Global Metro Monitor 2018. (PDF, 16.1MB)
Brooking Institution, June 2018, 48 pages.
“More than half the world’s population now lives in urban areas, and the 300 largest metropolitan economies in the world account for nearly half of all global output. The concentration of economic growth and prosperity in large metro areas defines the modern global economy, creating both opportunities and challenges in an era in which national political, economic, and societal trends are increasingly influenced by subnational dynamics. Understanding these large metro areas’ economic trajectory, which we measure through employment and GDP per capita measures, offers additional insights into the sources of growth that national or regional assessments tend to obscure.” (From the Brookings Institution)

Four Steps To Reignite Innovation And Secure The Future Of Work In America.
Forbes, May 30, 2018, 3 pages.
“The greatest threat to the American workforce is not automation. It is not the digital revolution. It is the stagnation of innovation. If the U.S. continues on its current trajectory it will be surpassed by China and Russia before the next generation. As of now, this is a threat, but if we do not act soon, it will mark the extinction of the American workforce as we know it.” (From Forbes)
