A new Harris Poll report reveals that while Americans overwhelmingly view skilled trades as essential to society, they also believe the field is undervalued, overlooked in schools, and facing a generational perception gap that could deepen the labor shortage crisis already gripping the nation.
According to the poll, conducted June 20–22, 2025, among 2,203 adults nationwide, 91% agree that skilled trade jobs are just as important as white-collar jobs, with 63% strongly agreeing. Still, 86% say skilled trade careers are overlooked in today’s educational system, and 90% believe most people don’t realize how lucrative these careers can be. “Skilled trades offer real career potential, but they’re not being talked about enough in schools or by society at large,” said Wendy Salomon, one of the report’s authors at Harris Poll’s Corporate Strategy & Reputation Practice. Despite their crucial role in the economy—from electricians and HVAC technicians to mechanics and welders—skilled trades struggle with image and awareness issues. Younger Americans appear less confident in the opportunities that trades provide. Only 38% of Gen Z respondents said skilled trades offer the best job prospects today, compared to 59% of Baby Boomers. Just 36% of Gen Z strongly agree that skilled trades offer a faster and more affordable path to a good career. The data shows a steep generational divide. While older Americans tend to view trade jobs as viable, even preferable career paths, many younger Americans are deterred by factors such as societal prestige, college pressure, and uncertainty about pay. Gen Z respondents also pointed to concerns about automation, job security, and inflexible work structures.
Black Americans were significantly more likely to cite a lack of visible role models as a significant barrier to entering the trades, suggesting that diversity and representation remain challenges in an industry that is still perceived by some as exclusionary. Even with these barriers, the report found a sharp contrast between perception and reality. Career paths in technology and healthcare dominated perceptions of opportunity, but skilled trades were still among the top five across all generations. Among Boomers, they ranked second only to tech. And even Gen Z ranked skilled trades above careers in law, teaching, and finance. One striking finding: a majority of Americans now say they would advise high school graduates to pursue a vocational or trade school path over a traditional four-year college. Only 36% of Gen Z would recommend college over trades. That figure rises steadily with age, with 41% of Boomers backing trade school routes for graduating seniors.
Corporate America is also being called to act. Nine in ten Americans said they have a more favorable opinion of companies that support skilled trades. That sentiment is strong across age groups, political identities, and racial demographics. Respondents said companies should offer hands-on school programs, paid internships, scholarships, and mentorship opportunities. “Skilled labor shortages are not theoretical—they’re disrupting industries today,” the report stated. “Corporate America has a clear mandate. Support the trades not just as a philanthropic gesture, but as a strategic investment.” The poll suggests that employers who step in to fund scholarships, partner with schools, or provide training and apprenticeships can not only build brand loyalty but also ensure a more stable future workforce. “There’s a myth that the trades are for people who couldn’t succeed elsewhere,” said Salomon. “That myth needs to die. These are skilled, in-demand careers that require intelligence, adaptability, and resilience.”

A new report from the Prison Policy Initiative reveals how President Donald Trump’s administration is driving mass deportation by secretly using local jails—even in places with sanctuary policies—to detain immigrants. The report, Hiding in Plain Sight: How Local Jails Obscure and Facilitate Mass Deportation Under Trump, details how these local facilities, through contracts with the U.S. Marshals Service, have become a critical infrastructure in Trump’s deportation strategy.
Building on the organization’s previous work explaining how county jails enable state and federal incarceration, this latest analysis breaks down the overlap between local criminal justice systems and federal immigration enforcement. The report also provides extensive data tables showing the level of involvement in every state and in over 600 specific jails. “The Trump administration is circumventing city and county sanctuary policies that limit cooperation with federal immigration authorities,” the report said. “It accomplishes this through a longstanding loophole: ICE and other federal agencies can refer people for federal prosecution on immigration-related ‘crimes’ and thus use local jails’ contracts with the U.S. Marshals Service in sanctuary cities, counties, and states.” This strategy, according to the report, turns civil immigration matters into criminal cases, thereby allowing the federal government to detain people in local jails even where sanctuary laws are on the books. As a result, local communities are unknowingly participating in federal deportation efforts.
The report also makes clear that ICE’s official numbers don’t reflect the full scale of immigrant detention in the United States. While ICE reported an average daily population of 57,200 in June 2025, the actual count—including people facing immigration-related criminal charges, those held on ICE detainers, and individuals confined in state-run facilities or overnight hold rooms—reaches approximately 83,400, a 45 percent increase over ICE’s published figures. “Many cities and states have tried to offer sanctuary for immigrants by refusing to rent jail space to ICE and opting out of the 287(g) program, but it is not enough,” said Jacob Kang-Brown, author of the report. “The Trump administration is leveraging jails at a new scale, using local contracts with the U.S. Marshals Service and existing policing practices in order to expand detention.”
Since Trump’s return to office in January, 45 percent of all ICE arrests have occurred in jails. The report explains how ICE capitalizes on local arrests, often for minor offenses that wouldn’t result in jail time for U.S. citizens, such as driving without a license, to target immigrants. These arrests, the report notes, create a misleading appearance that ICE is focused on serious criminal activity, when in fact most detainees have little or no criminal history. The report offers reporters and advocates access to detailed data that shows how many people are held for ICE and the U.S. Marshals in hundreds of facilities, including the change in these populations over time. It includes the share of detained immigrants in each state held by local jails, the rates of ICE arrests occurring in jails compared to other locations, and the growing number of immigrants arrested by the U.S. Marshals on charges related to immigration status. The report also includes information on per-diem payments made by the U.S. Marshals to local jails in exchange for housing federal detainees.
It concludes by urging counties to end all collaboration with federal immigration enforcement agencies, including the U.S. Marshals Service, which holds contracts with nearly 1,000 local jails nationwide. “Via their jails, local governments are—intentionally or not—providing the infrastructure for a massive attack on immigrants,” the report said. “But by resisting cooperation with President Trump’s racist deportation machine, counties and states also have the power to contain it.”

Fifty cities from 33 countries have been named global finalists in the ongoing Bloomberg Philanthropies Mayors Challenge, with each municipality receiving $50,000 to prototype bold, resident-centered ideas aimed at tackling critical urban challenges. In January 2026, 25 of the finalist cities will be selected to receive $1 million each and additional support to bring their solutions to life.
Now in its sixth cycle, the Mayors Challenge remains a cornerstone of Bloomberg Philanthropies’ mission to accelerate innovation in local government. More than 630 cities applied to this round, representing over 80 million residents. Finalist proposals focus on expanding green space, improving youth safety, reducing energy costs, and using artificial intelligence to enhance city services. “Local government is where people meet policy—and where government improves lives and builds trust,” said James Anderson, who leads the Government Innovation program at Bloomberg Philanthropies. “That’s why municipal innovation isn’t about grand gestures—it’s about solving hard problems under pressure, often with imperfect tools and finite resources. These Mayors Challenge finalists stand out because they’re not just thinking creatively—they’re designing solutions that reckon with the complexity of implementation and the urgency of their residents’ needs. Their proposals reflect a new standard for public sector achievement: ambitious, yes, but also grounded, disciplined, and ripe for real impact.” Each finalist will participate in Bloomberg Philanthropies’ Ideas Camp in July, where city leaders will test and refine their ideas with guidance from experts and peers.
“Bloomberg Philanthropies has provided invaluable support for cities to develop and implement innovative solutions that improve the lives of residents in ways they can feel,” said Mayor Mike Duggan of Detroit. Detroit is honored to be among the 50 municipalities selected from over 630 applications for the organization’s Mayors Challenge. As a finalist, we will work with renowned experts and peers to advance our proposal to create a powerful, single entry that connects currently scattered information – such as inspection dates, taxes, and utilities – on all 400,000 Detroit properties to revolutionize how owners can access this vital information, as well as how our city plans and provides its most essential services.” “Thank you to Bloomberg Philanthropies for seeing our vision to improve the quality of life for seniors across our city,” said Mayor Mike Spano of Yonkers, New York. “We are honored to be among 50 finalists selected for the prestigious global Mayors Challenge competition. As a finalist, we will look to create a fully sustainable model for community engagement – marshaling public and private partners as well as residents and students – coupled with innovative technology and tools to enable many more to age safely and gracefully in place.”
“Seoul is honored to be selected as one of the 50 finalists for the Bloomberg Philanthropies Mayors Challenge competition,” said Mayor Oh Se-hoon of Seoul, South Korea. “As a finalist, we will further our proposal to launch powerful educational campaigns and new support systems that will protect youth safety and prevent online child exploitation through the development of an AI-based mobile app that detects risks and alerts parents, while working alongside other cities to set a new standard for the future of urban policy.” “Local government and mayors’ offices are the beating heart of innovation and change in our urban environments,” said Professor Lesley Lokko OBE, founder and chair of the African Futures Institute and a 2025 Mayors Challenge advisory committee member. “It has been an honour to join Bloomberg Philanthropies’ advisory committee for the organization’s sixth Mayors Challenge, an initiative dedicated to empowering and supporting city makers around the world. I look forward to working with these 50 finalists as they advance in this extraordinary competition—strengthening their ideas, which each represent the inventiveness citizens everywhere should expect from their governments—and the future of what municipal delivery has the power and potential to be.” “For more than a decade, Bloomberg Philanthropies has provided unprecedented support to drive local government innovation in cities across the country and around the world,” said Admiral Michael G. Mullen, president and CEO of MGM Consulting and a member of the 2025 advisory committee. “The organization’s sixth Mayors Challenge will invest in the future of urban delivery from the ground floor of communities—and I am thrilled to join its advisory committee and work with these finalist cities on accelerating their ideas – from safeguarding water supply to carving out community spaces to integrating AI to improve student routes, and more.”
Since its inception, the Mayor’s Challenge has awarded 38 cities with funding and technical assistance to implement innovative ideas. Many of those ideas have since been replicated in over 330 cities around the world, impacting more than 100 million people. The Challenge is one of many initiatives supported by Michael R. Bloomberg, founder of Bloomberg L.P. and Bloomberg Philanthropies, and former three-term mayor of New York City. His data-driven approach to governance transformed city operations and continues to shape global urban policy. In 2024, President Joe Biden awarded Bloomberg the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor. Bloomberg’s philanthropic commitment includes the Greenwood Initiative, which aims to accelerate Black wealth creation, and ongoing support for historically Black medical schools. During his 2020 presidential run, Bloomberg partnered with the Black Press of America to help engage Black voters and elevate underrepresented voices—a relationship that continues to inform the philanthropy’s equity-driven programs.

Sean “Diddy” Combs is once again asking to be released from federal custody ahead of his October 3 sentencing—this time arguing that his nearly yearlong incarceration is unjust, the law was misapplied, and the judge should set aside earlier concerns about his past violent behavior. The motion, filed July 29 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, comes after Judge Arun Subramanian denied Combs’ prior requests for bail following the jury’s split verdict. While Combs was acquitted of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and a host of other charges, he was convicted of violating the Mann Act. The judge had previously cited Combs’ own admissions of violence, particularly in his relationship with Cassie Ventura, and an alleged 2024 assault against another woman known as “Jane,” as key reasons for continued detention.
Now, Combs’ attorneys argue that keeping him behind bars amounts to an unprecedented and inappropriate application of a 114-year-old law originally designed to combat human trafficking and forced prostitution. They say Combs is being punished not for coercion or profiteering but for engaging in consensual sexual activity within a swinger’s lifestyle. “There has literally never been a case like this one,” the motion states, arguing that Combs is the only person in jail for paying adult male escorts to engage with his long-term girlfriends—activity the defense claims was consensual and initiated by the women themselves.
The legal team also points to Combs’ 11-month detention at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, calling it a dangerous and violent environment that federal courts have already condemned as unfit. They argue the facility’s conditions alone justify his release. “The requirement of outside law enforcement agencies to ensure safety within the MDC is an admission that serious violence, mayhem and chaos is occurring,” the motion says. Combs is offering a $50 million bond secured by his Miami home, travel restrictions, electronic monitoring, and any conditions the court may impose to prove he is neither a danger nor a flight risk. “This jury gave him his life back, and he will not squander his second chance at life,” his attorneys wrote.

The Washington Post, which largely has been considered a “paper of record” alongside its competitive rivals, The New York Times, is now witnessing a major exodus of Black journalists. Though the U.S. is becoming more diverse, the Post isn’t.
The Post’s headquarters sits in the middle of the District of Columbia, which has a 43 percent Black population and a historic Black university less than two miles away. Yet The Post has never had a history of staff diversity. The recent departure of Black journalists is seemingly related to an anti-diversity backlash led by President Trump after the 2020 George Floyd “racial reckoning”. Trump’s executive order, signed less than 48 hours into his second term on January 21, declared policy war on the diversity and inclusivity of historically marginalized groups. Trump’s George Floyd backlash, alongside separate claims of defamation by the president, has led to his targeting of law firms, media organizations, and academic institutions. Several media companies, such as ABC and CBS, have capitulated to Trump. The Washington Post appears to be doing so in advance, as Post owner Jeff Bezos has business before the federal government related to his ownership of Blue Origin and Amazon. The current moment now witnesses an exodus of Black journalists not seen in the paper’s history. In recent years, journalists Vanessa Williams, Wesley Lowery, and Kevin Merida have departed The Washington Post. But the current departures include journalists with decades of experience and several Pulitzer Prizes. The current exodus is noteworthy even by the Post’s low standards for diversity. The Post went for close to a year without a single Black member of the Editorial Board. Currently, the only Black member, the obscure Keith Richburg, is in Hong Kong. The National Association of Black Journalists noted the issue in a July 26 press release.
NABJ stated that they are “closely monitoring the recent wave of departures and voluntary exits from several legacy media institutions, including The Washington Post. This ongoing disruption has far-reaching implications for newsroom diversity, representation, and the future of Black journalists.” The list of departures includes two Pulitzer Prize winners: Jonathan Capehart, an opinion columnist who has been with the Post since 2007 and is taking a buyout offer. Capehart also recounted a racial episode in 2024 in his book related to his former colleague Karen Tumulty, who was deputy opinions editor at the time. Tumulty has now been promoted to lead the Post’s politics coverage. Post editorial board member Karen Attiah announced on social media on July 22 that she was “the last Black staff columnist left in the Washington Post’s opinion section.” On July 21, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Toluse Olorunnipa, who was the White House Bureau Chief for The Washington Post, announced he was now a writer at The Atlantic. Olorunnipa won the Pulitzer for the book “His Name is George Floyd” in 2023 for General Nonfiction. Several Post journalists have fled to The Atlantic. Other departures include Eugene Robinson and Krissah Thompson, who was the only Black managing editor on the masthead.
“After 24 years at The Washington Post, I’m turning the page on this chapter of my career. I’m grateful for the wonderful experience that I’ve had and the contributions that I’ve made over 24 years as a reporter, editor, and news leader,” Thompson wrote on her Instagram page on July 23. Trump’s executive order, which called for the termination of all federal government programs relating to “diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility,” appears to have been obeyed even by private sector actors under no obligation to comply. Post CEO Will Lewis has remained in charge despite a 2024 controversy surrounding his connections to a scandal related to the illegal phone-hacking of members of the British royal family. Many recent hires at the Post have been in some way connected to the more conservative The Wall Street Journal. The latest round of buyouts ends on July 31, so many more departure announcements are expected this week.

Across the United States, drivers are spending more time stuck in traffic, navigating crumbling roads, and bracing for dangerous encounters with aggressive motorists. A trio of new reports paints a troubling picture: America’s roadways are jammed, its drivers are angry, and the impact is growing more severe in cities from coast to coast. Leading the crisis is Washington, D.C., which has overtaken Los Angeles as the city with the worst traffic in the country. According to Consumer Affairs, D.C. drivers face an average commute of 33.4 minutes — the longest in the nation — and spend 6 hours and 35 minutes sitting in weekday congestion. That adds up to 71 full days spent in traffic every year. Los Angeles now ranks second, followed by Miami, San Francisco, and Atlanta. Baltimore, Maryland, cracked the top 10, landing at number nine with a 29.2-minute average commute and more than 5.5 hours of weekday congestion. Virginia Beach was the only Southern metro to improve its traffic rank compared to last year. “Congestion is oftentimes a sign of economic prosperity,” said UCLA professor Michael Manville. “A region with a growing economy provides a lot of opportunity, so people want to work there…
the roads in an area with a booming economy become overloaded and congested.” But congestion is only one side of the crisis. In a separate 2025 Consumer Affairs analysis, states like Louisiana, New Mexico, and Colorado emerged as hotspots for road rage. Nearly 60% of Louisiana’s traffic fatalities last year were tied to aggressive or careless driving — four times the national average. In New Mexico, road rage incidents involving gun violence occurred at nearly four times the national rate. And Colorado leads the country in reckless driving violations, with more than eight per 100,000 residents. Pew Research reports that 63% of Americans now see aggressive driving as a major problem in their communities. Even cities that don’t top the congestion charts are grappling with deteriorating road conditions and dangerous driving behavior. North Carolina, Arkansas, and Hawaii reported that nearly half or more of their fatal crashes were linked to driver aggression. Meanwhile, in New Jersey, a third of fatal accidents involved reckless behavior — a number complicated by reports of law enforcement discretion in issuing citations. For residents in high-impact areas, the daily toll is personal.
“I’ve lived in Northeast for 37 years and commuted to Capitol Hill for the last 18,” said Denise Pennington of Washington, D.C. “It’s worse than it’s ever been. You used to be able to plan around it, but now, no matter when you leave, you’re stuck. And people are more aggressive. Everyone’s just fed up.” Lachaughn Warren, 61, has lived in Southeast D.C. her entire life and said the gridlock has become constant. “There’s no good time to drive anymore. It used to feel like you could figure out the traffic flow. Now it’s just unpredictable, all day long. It’s chaos.” In New York, which ranks sixth for worst traffic, the situation has added pressure to an already strained system. “The potholes are everywhere, and the traffic doesn’t move,” said Jason McNeil, a 53-year-old public school employee in the Bronx. “I worry every morning about being late. And it’s not just me — it’s the students, the teachers, the staff. We all feel it. It’s like the city is breaking down one street at a time.”
BLACKPRESSUSA NEWSWIRE — From Mississippi to Michigan and from Texas to New York, states are activating emergency measures. Cooling centers are open in New York City and Newark, where a Code Red hot weather health warning was issued through Wednesday. Meanwhile, officials in Arizona responded to multiple heat-related rescues over the weekend.

Nearly two-thirds of the U.S. population — close to 200 million people — are under extreme heat warnings, watches, or advisories as a dome of high-pressure traps sweltering air across the Midwest, South, and East Coast.
Cities including Chicago, New York, Atlanta, Dallas, and St. Louis are experiencing oppressive temperatures, with heat indexes approaching or exceeding 110 degrees. In some areas, including parts of Florida and Georgia, the index could reach as high as 115.
“This is not normal July heat,” warned Max Holmes, president and CEO of the Woodwell Climate Research Center. “We’ve always had heat waves, but now they’re hitting harder, lasting longer, and coming more often.”
From Mississippi to Michigan and from Texas to New York, states are activating emergency measures. Cooling centers are open in New York City and Newark, where a Code Red hot weather health warning was issued through Wednesday. Meanwhile, officials in Arizona responded to multiple heat-related rescues over the weekend.
As the heat builds, a separate but equally dangerous threat is brewing in the Midwest and Plains. Thunderstorms forming over South Dakota are expected to evolve into a derecho — a widespread, fast-moving windstorm capable of producing hurricane-force gusts. The National Weather Service warns that wind speeds could exceed 90 mph, with isolated gusts hitting 115 mph.
The Interstates 29 and 90 corridors are especially vulnerable, with AccuWeather forecasting potential damage to infrastructure and travel disruptions from Chicago to Minneapolis.
“Several wind gusts in excess of 75 mph, a few line-embedded tornadoes, and instances of severe hail are also probable,” said meteorologist Mussie Kebede of the Storm Prediction Center.
The heat is expected to ease slightly in the Midwest and Northeast by Thursday, but not before records are challenged in cities like Tampa, Charlotte, and Philadelphia. Meanwhile, the South will likely remain gripped by extreme heat well into the weekend.
According to NASA data, extreme heat stress events have more than doubled in the past 40 years — a trend that climate scientists say will only worsen without major environmental interventions.
“This is exactly what scientists have warned about,” said Holmes. “It’s not a one-off anymore. It’s the new reality, and we have to prepare for it.”
