"Blocking accountable suppliers leaves willing buyers with fewer reliable sources and exposes them to additional risks. That reasoning also applies to other substances sold on black or gray markets. Kennedy is on the right track with peptides. His administration should apply that insight consistently." My latest. reason.org/commentary/rfk-jr… via @ReasonFdn
The Jones Act blocks shipping routes even when no suitable American vessel is available. Congress should create an economic-need waiver process to let foreign ships carry those cargoes and meet demand, writes @jayderrbr.

Blocking pharmacies from supplying experimental peptides leaves consumers with fewer accountable sources and risks pushing them toward sellers whose peptides and manufacturing practices are harder to verify.

Generational nicotine bans add no protection for today’s minors, who already cannot legally buy nicotine. Instead, they risk pushing future adults toward illegal markets and away from less harmful alternatives to cigarettes.

“Generational nicotine bans don’t add a single new protection for today’s minors. By design, they restrict tomorrow’s adults from making their own choices.” - Guy Bentley

Harm reduction starts with helping people reduce the risks they face, even when they decline the treatment others would choose for them. Making that help conditional on accepting the government’s preferred treatment risks defeating its purpose. My latest. reason.org/commentary/accept… via @ReasonFdn
National polling from @yes_everykid_f finds 74 percent of parents of school-aged children support open enrollment policies in public schools.

New York City’s congestion pricing program has reduced traffic and improved travel speeds. Policymakers should now tie tolls to traffic conditions, charge similar vehicles similar rates, and clearly show how they spend the revenue.

"If there were a widespread and persistent youth nicotine crisis, perhaps such drastic, but still misguided, action might be more understandable from policymakers. However, young people aren’t smoking as much as they used to." reason.org/commentary/counte… via @ReasonFdn
New York City’s congestion pricing program shows that charging drivers can reduce congestion but toll rates should not be set by revenue goals for transit programs.

Improving transit performance depends less on building new infrastructure than on aligning service technology, operating models, network design, and roadway management with the way people travel today.

“Open enrollment gives families more choice and creates a path toward better public schools that attract students, respond more to parents, and focus on helping every student succeed.” — @JudeSchwalbach

The federal drug police want to turn consumers of certain concentrated kratom-derived products into criminals while leaving traditional kratom leaf products outside the ban. Before exposing adults to arrest and prosecution, the feds owe them a scientific explanation for that distinction. reason.com/2026/10/20/the-de… via @reason
The federal government needs public health professionals, not a separate uniformed bureaucracy to employ them.

In many U.S. cities, a 20-minute car trip can take an hour or more by transit because routes are indirect, service is infrequent, or buses and trains are delayed by traffic.

"Before the drug police turn more consumers into criminals, they should at least demonstrate how doing so will make those consumers safer." My latest. reason.com/2026/10/20/the-de… via @reason

If the country can go this long without a confirmed Surgeon General while its health agencies continue operating, why do we need one? And why do we still maintain the roughly 6,000-member uniformed service the Surgeon General oversees?reason.org/commentary/abolis… via @ReasonFdn
