How does your state's average #Medicaid spending compare? The federal government currently covers a large portion of Medicaid expenses; however, changes in funding and increased demands for services could lead to higher expenditures for states. https://lnkd.in/ef5UBVZj

📄 There are over 7,000 provisions that limit health care job opportunities based on criminal history according to the latest brief from the CSG Justice Center. With nearly 1.9 million health care jobs being added in the U.S. by 2032 and a shortage of qualified workers to fill them, workers with criminal histories represent a promising pool of talent that are often shut out of job opportunities. This brief explores how including workers with criminal histories can address growing workforce shortages and foster safer, healthier communities. #WorkforceShortage #SecondChanceEmployment #JusticeCenterBrief https://lnkd.in/geZwZvKi

Policymakers nationwide are deciding what role their state will play in governing the development and regulation of #AI. Some states have already spoken. In Texas, HB 2060 (2023) established an AI advisory council consisting of public and elected officials, academics and #technology experts. Connecticut policymakers passed SB 1103 (2023), which requires state agencies to review any use of AI and to ensure the technology does not discriminate against anyone and that it is fiscally responsible. In Illinois, HB 2557 (2019) requires an employer to notify and receive consent from job applicants prior to conducting a video-recorded interview that may be analyzed by AI to determine their fitness for the position. #ArtificialIntelligence systems continue to advance — and show no signs of slowing down. https://lnkd.in/eta7Fj2A

Scientists have emphasized the need to slash #CarbonEmissions roughly in half by 2030 and then to zero by 2050. A number of states have already established targets to zero out emissions from all sectors of the economy. Legislators are exploring strategies to accelerate #RenewableEnergy deployment and explore the role of next-generation clean energy technologies. The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) hosted a summit in Syracuse to discuss the future of the state’s energy economy. https://lnkd.in/eiqgwYK5
