When U.S. Rep. Virginia Foxx convened a meeting Monday in Winston-Salem dubbed “A Call For Health Care Reform That Works,” Joseph Coletti, John Locke Foundation Director of Health Care and Fiscal Policy Studies, joined her. WGHP Television took note of Coletti’s participation. StateHouseCall.org also drew attention this week to Coletti’s thoughts about cost overruns in state Medicaid programs. When the N.C. Employment Security Commission released its latest state unemployment data this week, WPTF Radio‘s afternoon program called on Coletti for expert analysis. Last week’s impact report mentioned a WPTF interview with Terry Stoops, Director of Education Studies, about the best way to help economically disadvantaged students in Wake County public schools. That interview is now available online. Speaking of Stoops, News 14 Carolina interviewed him Thursday about the proposed Common Core State Standards Initiative for schools across the country. In addition, the Beaufort Observer republished Stoops’ recent column about “21st Century Skills” in North Carolina classrooms. In other news, the latest TownHall.com column from Jon Sanders, Associate Director of Research, focuses on Democrats’ strategies for passing the unpopular federal health-care reform plan.
