The justices voted 5-4, reflecting the high court’s conservative majority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The decision allows the Pentagon to bar transgender people from joining or, in some circumstances, remaining in the military while the lower court rulings are appealed. The justices did not allow the Trump administration to leapfrog the appeals court, as it had requested.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two cases — \u003cem>Trump v. Karnoski\u003c/em> and \u003cem>Trump v. Stockman\u003c/em> — are currently working their way through the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In both of those cases, Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan would have maintained a stay on the ban, Tuesday’s Supreme Court order reads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The transgender ban is being revived more than a year after a federal court in Washington, D.C., first blocked it in October 2017. U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly ruled that trans members of the military had “a strong case that the president’s ban would violate their Fifth Amendment rights,” as \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/10/30/560847850/federal-judge-blocks-trumps-ban-on-transgender-service-members\">NPR reported\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit \u003ca href=\"https://thehill.com/policy/defense/423862-appeals-court-sides-with-trump-on-transgender-military-ban\">lifted Kollar-Kotelly’s injunction\u003c/a> earlier this month, concluding that the ban had been substantially revised by the time it was instituted by former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis in March 2018. But other federal courts had also ruled against the ban — and until Tuesday, those other injunctions remained in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two outstanding cases come from California and Washington state, in the 9th Circuit’s jurisdiction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Human Rights Campaign, which is involved in the Karnoski case in Washington state, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/HRC/status/1087725575303774210\">condemned the Supreme Court’s decision\u003c/a>, saying it “thrusts this administration’s discriminatory agenda onto a military that clearly doesn’t want it, and does so at the expense of transgender people’s careers and service.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shannon Minter, legal director of the San Francisco-based National Center for Lesbian Rights, one of the organizations representing plaintiffs in cases challenging the ban, called the court’s decision a “very sad day for our military, for transgender people in this country, certainly for the thousands of courageous dedicated transgender service members who were willing to make the ultimate sacrifice to protect our country.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is definitely a body blow and a very traumatic moment for them to know that the United States Supreme Court has, however temporarily, allowed the Trump administration to enforce a ban that directly attacks them and falsely paints them as unfit for military service, even as they are every single day proving their fitness to serve,” Minter said in an interview with KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Minter was disappointed by the decision to grant the stay, he was encouraged that the Supreme Court is allowing the cases to proceed through the district courts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a temporary order,” Minter said. “It theoretically does allow the government now to enforce the ban while we all wait for the 9th Circuit to rule, which is going to happen any day now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-California, called the Supreme Court’s decision to allow Trump’s transgender ban to temporarily take effect “deeply disappointing” and “creates unnecessary confusion for transgender individuals serving in the military.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The ban would essentially restore ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ for transgender service members, only allowing them to serve if they hide their true identity,” Feinstein said in written statement. “That previous policy directed toward LGBT service members harmed our military then, just as this one will now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump announced his ban abruptly in the summer of 2017, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/890193981585444864?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E890193981585444864&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.npr.org%2F2017%2F07%2F27%2F539559582%2F5-unanswered-questions-about-trumps-ban-on-transgender-troops\">saying in a series of tweets\u003c/a> that “the United States Government will not accept or allow…… ….Transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The decision seemed to take Defense Department officials by surprise, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2017/07/27/539559582/5-unanswered-questions-about-trumps-ban-on-transgender-troops\">sparking confusion\u003c/a> despite Trump’s assertion that he had consulted “with my Generals and military experts.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tweets were followed by an official \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2017/08/25/presidential-memorandum-secretary-defense-and-secretary-homeland\">presidential memo\u003c/a> in August of that year, which gave the defense secretary (and for the Coast Guard, the Homeland Security secretary) the discretion to “determine how to address transgender individuals currently serving in the United States military.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s ban was a sharp reversal of a Pentagon policy \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/06/30/484192442/pentagon-says-transgender-troops-can-now-serve-openly\">announced in June 2016\u003c/a>, when former Defense Secretary Ash Carter said, “Effective immediately, transgender Americans may serve openly, and they can no longer be discharged or otherwise separated from the military just for being transgender.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That Obama-era policy was hailed as ending an era of legal and professional limbo for trans people in the U.S. armed service; Carter said the decision was made out of a desire to attract “all talent possible” to serve in the military.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time, researchers at the RAND Corporation think tank estimated there were as many as 7,000 active-duty transgender service members, with up to 4,000 more in the reserves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because of that policy and the lower-court injunctions, the first openly trans people were officially able to join the U.S. military \u003ca href=\"https://www.wbez.org/shows/wbez-news/with-ban-lifted-trans-chicago-man-hopes-to-aim-high-with-air-force/b2f35740-bed1-494e-be57-2c5cd96124ed\">on Jan. 1, 2018\u003c/a>. But now their status is once again in jeopardy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tuesday’s order states that if the 9th Circuit rules against the ban, the ban on trans people in the military would remain in effect until the Supreme Court justices either deny a request to hear the case (if such an application is made) or rule against the Trump administration’s policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>NPR’s Domenico Montanaro and KQED’s Ted Goldberg contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2019 NPR.

U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly ruled that trans members of the military had “a strong case that the president’s ban would violate their Fifth Amendment rights,” as \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/10/30/560847850/federal-judge-blocks-trumps-ban-on-transgender-service-members\">NPR reported\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit \u003ca href=\"https://thehill.com/policy/defense/423862-appeals-court-sides-with-trump-on-transgender-military-ban\">lifted Kollar-Kotelly’s injunction\u003c/a> earlier this month, concluding that the ban had been substantially revised by the time it was instituted by former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis in March 2018. But other federal courts had also ruled against the ban — and until Tuesday, those other injunctions remained in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two outstanding cases come from California and Washington state, in the 9th Circuit’s jurisdiction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Human Rights Campaign, which is involved in the Karnoski case in Washington state, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/HRC/status/1087725575303774210\">condemned the Supreme Court’s decision\u003c/a>, saying it “thrusts this administration’s discriminatory agenda onto a military that clearly doesn’t want it, and does so at the expense of transgender people’s careers and service.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shannon Minter, legal director of the San Francisco-based National Center for Lesbian Rights, one of the organizations representing plaintiffs in cases challenging the ban, called the court’s decision a “very sad day for our military, for transgender people in this country, certainly for the thousands of courageous dedicated transgender service members who were willing to make the ultimate sacrifice to protect our country.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is definitely a body blow and a very traumatic moment for them to know that the United States Supreme Court has, however temporarily, allowed the Trump administration to enforce a ban that directly attacks them and falsely paints them as unfit for military service, even as they are every single day proving their fitness to serve,” Minter said in an interview with KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Minter was disappointed by the decision to grant the stay, he was encouraged that the Supreme Court is allowing the cases to proceed through the district courts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a temporary order,” Minter said. “It theoretically does allow the government now to enforce the ban while we all wait for the 9th Circuit to rule, which is going to happen any day now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-California, called the Supreme Court’s decision to allow Trump’s transgender ban to temporarily take effect “deeply disappointing” and “creates unnecessary confusion for transgender individuals serving in the military.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The ban would essentially restore ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ for transgender service members, only allowing them to serve if they hide their true identity,” Feinstein said in written statement. “That previous policy directed toward LGBT service members harmed our military then, just as this one will now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump announced his ban abruptly in the summer of 2017, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/890193981585444864?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E890193981585444864&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.npr.org%2F2017%2F07%2F27%2F539559582%2F5-unanswered-questions-about-trumps-ban-on-transgender-troops\">saying in a series of tweets\u003c/a> that “the United States Government will not accept or allow…… ….Transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The decision seemed to take Defense Department officials by surprise, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2017/07/27/539559582/5-unanswered-questions-about-trumps-ban-on-transgender-troops\">sparking confusion\u003c/a> despite Trump’s assertion that he had consulted “with my Generals and military experts.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tweets were followed by an official \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2017/08/25/presidential-memorandum-secretary-defense-and-secretary-homeland\">presidential memo\u003c/a> in August of that year, which gave the defense secretary (and for the Coast Guard, the Homeland Security secretary) the discretion to “determine how to address transgender individuals currently serving in the United States military.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s ban was a sharp reversal of a Pentagon policy \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/06/30/484192442/pentagon-says-transgender-troops-can-now-serve-openly\">announced in June 2016\u003c/a>, when former Defense Secretary Ash Carter said, “Effective immediately, transgender Americans may serve openly, and they can no longer be discharged or otherwise separated from the military just for being transgender.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That Obama-era policy was hailed as ending an era of legal and professional limbo for trans people in the U.S. armed service; Carter said the decision was made out of a desire to attract “all talent possible” to serve in the military.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time, researchers at the RAND Corporation think tank estimated there were as many as 7,000 active-duty transgender service members, with up to 4,000 more in the reserves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because of that policy and the lower-court injunctions, the first openly trans people were officially able to join the U.S. military \u003ca href=\"https://www.wbez.org/shows/wbez-news/with-ban-lifted-trans-chicago-man-hopes-to-aim-high-with-air-force/b2f35740-bed1-494e-be57-2c5cd96124ed\">on Jan. 1, 2018\u003c/a>. But now their status is once again in jeopardy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tuesday’s order states that if the 9th Circuit rules against the ban, the ban on trans people in the military would remain in effect until the Supreme Court justices either deny a request to hear the case (if such an application is made) or rule against the Trump administration’s policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>NPR’s Domenico Montanaro and KQED’s Ted Goldberg contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2019 NPR.

In light of the 800,000 great American workers not receiving pay, I am sure you would agree that postponing this public relations event is totally appropriate,\" Trump wrote in a letter to Pelosi. \"I also feel that, during this period, it would be better if you were in Washington negotiating with me and joining the Strong Border Security movement to end the Shutdown.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pelosi and other members of the congressional delegation, commonly referred to as a \"codel,\" were on a bus headed to the airport to depart, and the Capitol Police already had personnel on the ground in Europe for the trip. Other members slated to be on the trip included House intelligence committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., House Veterans' Affairs Committee Chairman Mark Takano, D-Calif., and Rep.

The two parties remain at a stalemate, with Trump demanding funding for a wall or barrier along the Mexican border, and Pelosi and other Democratic leaders on Capitol Hill insisting the government should be reopened before negotiations continue on border security issues. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pelosi fired the first volley against Trump earlier this week, \u003ca href=\"https://apps.npr.org/documents/document.html?id=5685399-Pelosi-Letter-To-Trump-On-SOTU\">when she wrote\u003c/a> that his annual State of the Union address, originally slated for Jan. 29, should be postponed until after the full government reopens, citing, in part, security concerns. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Such a planned trip by Pelosi to a war zone had not been publicly announced, and would not have been for security reasons. The speaker would use military planes for such travel, and that is what Trump is now denying her. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Obviously, if you would like to make your journey by flying commercial, that would certainly be your prerogative,\" Trump added in the letter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pelosi spokesman Drew Hammill said in a statement that while Trump's letter claimed Pelosi and Democrats were also traveling to Brussels and Egypt, the stop in Brussels was simply for pilot rest, where \"the delegation was scheduled to meet with top NATO commanders, U.S. military leaders and key allies – to affirm the United States' ironclad commitment to the NATO alliance.\" A stop in Egypt was not on their agenda, Hammill said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The purpose of the trip was to express appreciation and thanks to our men and women in uniform for their service and dedication, and to obtain critical national security and intelligence briefings from those on the front lines,\" Hammill continued, pointing out that the president \"traveled to Iraq during the Trump Shutdown as did a Republican CODEL led by\" New York Rep.

President Trump denying Speaker Pelosi military travel to visit our troops in Afghanistan, our allies in Egypt and NATO is also inappropriate,\" Graham said in a statement. \"I am glad the Speaker wants to meet our troops and hear from our commanders and allies.

It's widely feared that, with climate change and future wildfires, the housing crunch could only get worse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many Chico leaders point to the irony that, in a region with an ongoing affordable housing crisis, if and when Paradise rebuilds, the new town will probably have tougher building codes and be more expensive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And that new town won't even happen for years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Editor's Note: NPR's Kirk Siegler is based temporarily in Butte County.

At a time when more women than men are graduating from college and earning doctorates, \u003ca href=\"https://pubs.aeaweb.org/doi/pdfplus/10.1257/jep.30.4.221\">just a third\u003c/a> of Ph.D.s in economics go to women. That statistic has hardly budged in decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lack of gender diversity has trickled its way into one of the field’s biggest employers of economists: the Federal Reserve, which crafts U.S. monetary policy. For most of its existence the Fed has been dominated by men. That’s why it was such a big deal when Janet Yellen became \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2014/01/31/269496733/after-overcoming-early-obstacles-yellen-assumes-feds-top-job\">the first woman to run the Fed\u003c/a> in 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Lael Brainard, a Federal Reserve governor, says the central bank “has a lot of work to do to have a truly diverse set of leaders.” Brainard, an economist, has spent much of her career as one of the few women in the room when major policy decisions are made.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you’re sitting around a decision-making table, you look around and you say to yourself: ‘Hmm, this table doesn’t look like a typical classroom in America.’ And until it does we’re not going to be getting the best possible outcomes that this country deserves,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11717433/find-yourself-in-the-california-legislature-or-not\">Find Yourself in the California Legislature — or Not\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11717433/find-yourself-in-the-california-legislature-or-not\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/Legislators-like-you-PHOTO-1-e1547161083527.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Brainard says a growing body of research suggests that diversity leads to better decision-making. Top voices at the Fed are raising the red flag at a time when the Fed’s integrity is under intense scrutiny, with President Trump \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/08/20/640332224/trump-not-thrilled-with-fed-chairman-over-interest-rate-hikes\">routinely blasting the central bank\u003c/a> for raising interest rates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The institution has been a political punching bag before, most notably in recent times for its handling of the financial crisis. The seminal legislation that came out of that era, the Dodd-Frank Act, called for the U.S. Government Accountability Office to examine governance at the Federal Reserve Banks. The GAO’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.gao.gov/assets/590/585807.pdf\">2011 report\u003c/a> found that more diversity would strengthen the Fed’s legitimacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawmakers have taken notice. Last Tuesday, Rep. Joyce Beatty, D-Ohio, \u003ca href=\"https://beatty.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/beatty-rule-introduced-in-house-and-senate\">introduced legislation\u003c/a> aimed at boosting diversity among Federal Reserve Bank presidents. It would require that at least one gender-diverse candidate and racially or ethnically diverse candidate gets interviewed when there’s an opening. Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., has introduced companion legislation in the Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former Fed chiefs are also concerned and are weighing in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At an \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/money/2019/01/08/683177953/econ-too\">annual gathering\u003c/a> of the American Economic Association in Atlanta last week, former Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke and the association’s new president, acknowledged that a reputation for hostility has kept women — and minorities — away.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">‘As we try to develop knowledge for the use of policymakers and as we try to develop specific policies, we’re hindered by the lack of diversity in our ranks.’\u003ccite>Amanda Bayer, professor at Swarthmore College\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“I think it’s very important for economics that we change equilibrium, that we change the perception of economics as being unfriendly to any group of people,” he said during a panel discussion that also included Yellen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said it “should be the highest priority for us over the next couple of years.” And Yellen said the association, which she will lead starting next year, has formed a committee that will focus on ways to improve “the environment for women and minorities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent years, the Fed has taken deliberate steps to address not just the gender disparity, but also racial and ethnic diversity. A few years ago, it brought on professor Amanda Bayer of Swarthmore College as an adviser.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As we try to develop knowledge for the use of policymakers and as we try to develop specific policies, we’re hindered by the lack of diversity in our ranks,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bayer organized the Fed’s first national summit on diversity in 2014. That summit is now an annual event. And last month, she partnered with the central bank on \u003ca href=\"https://www.newyorkfed.org/data-and-statistics/data-visualization/diversity-in-economics#interactive/overview\">a new website\u003c/a> that gives U.S. universities a visual scorecard on diversity at the undergraduate level, where she says the problem often begins.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11713470/for-transgender-and-non-binary-protections-california-came-first\">For Transgender and Nonbinary Protections, California Came First\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11713470/for-transgender-and-non-binary-protections-california-came-first\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/12/IMG_0043-1180x885.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“Before very recently, fingers were pointed at women themselves looking to factors like women’s tastes or math preparation as explainers of why they didn’t choose us and join us as economists,” Bayer says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But increasingly, the field is looking within to understand why so few women decide to pursue it. Step one of finding a solution is admitting there’s a problem, says Bayer, and it’s clear that economics has one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.dropbox.com/s/v6q7gfcbv9feef5/Wu_EJMR_paper.pdf?dl=0\"> A thesis\u003c/a> penned by UC Berkeley student Alice Wu helped shine a light on the problem. She used machine learning to analyze posts on an anonymous online jobs forum popular with economics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She came up with a very convincing case that there was a lot of sexism and a lot of homophobia in the postings on this forum,” says Berkeley professor Martha Olney. “Her research simply codified what lots of people could have told you. But the people who could have told you that were women, people of color, and queer students.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once the story was \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/18/upshot/evidence-of-a-toxic-environment-for-women-in-economics.html\">picked up\u003c/a> in \u003cem>The New York Times\u003c/em>, Wu’s paper made the rounds among some of the most prestigious names in the field, and perhaps more significantly, those just starting out in it. It was a wake-up call.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">‘When you show up, you are female and bringing that to the table is just as important as bringing your skill set to the table.’\u003ccite>Mary Daly, president of the San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“It made me reflect a little bit about — ‘Are the people I’m surrounding with thinking those things and just not saying them out loud?’ ” says third-year Ph.D. student Nina Roussille.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roussille says an aggressive seminar culture alienates some women. One researcher has said that “trying to \u003ca href=\"https://www.minneapolisfed.org/publications/the-region/interview-with-anne-case\">nail the speaker to the blackboard\u003c/a>” isn’t the goal in other disciplines as it often seems to be in economics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mary Daly is championing the cause of bringing more women into the Fed by stopping leaks earlier in the pipeline. In October, she took over as president of the San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank. That gave her a vote in the most recent Fed policy meetings this fall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like the few other women at the top, Daly routinely offers encouragement through speeches, as she did at a Fed-sponsored \u003ca href=\"https://www.stlouisfed.org/education/women-in-economics/symposium-daly-presentation\">symposium for women in economics\u003c/a> last year in St. Louis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you show up, you are female and bringing that to the table is just as important as bringing your skill set to the table,” Daly told the audience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A labor economist, Daly has looked at \u003ca href=\"https://www.frbsf.org/economic-research/publications/economic-letter/2018/november/why-are-us-workers-not-participating/\">why more women aren’t in the U.S. workforce\u003c/a>. Rising through the ranks over two decades, she grew interested in why there were hardly any women at the Fed itself, even in entry-level roles.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/perspectives/201601138106/male-privilege\">Perspectives: Male Privilege\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/perspectives/201601138106/male-privilege\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/44/2016/01/LarryLee.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“I called over 250 colleges myself — placement directors, chairs of departments — and said, ‘What do you think of the Fed?’ And they said it’s an old boys’ club where women wouldn’t be welcome.

At a time when more women than men are graduating from college and earning doctorates, \u003ca href=\"https://pubs.aeaweb.org/doi/pdfplus/10.1257/jep.30.4.221\">just a third\u003c/a> of Ph.D.s in economics go to women. That statistic has hardly budged in decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lack of gender diversity has trickled its way into one of the field’s biggest employers of economists: the Federal Reserve, which crafts U.S. monetary policy. For most of its existence the Fed has been dominated by men. That’s why it was such a big deal when Janet Yellen became \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2014/01/31/269496733/after-overcoming-early-obstacles-yellen-assumes-feds-top-job\">the first woman to run the Fed\u003c/a> in 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Lael Brainard, a Federal Reserve governor, says the central bank “has a lot of work to do to have a truly diverse set of leaders.” Brainard, an economist, has spent much of her career as one of the few women in the room when major policy decisions are made.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you’re sitting around a decision-making table, you look around and you say to yourself: ‘Hmm, this table doesn’t look like a typical classroom in America.’ And until it does we’re not going to be getting the best possible outcomes that this country deserves,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11717433/find-yourself-in-the-california-legislature-or-not\">Find Yourself in the California Legislature — or Not\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11717433/find-yourself-in-the-california-legislature-or-not\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/Legislators-like-you-PHOTO-1-e1547161083527.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Brainard says a growing body of research suggests that diversity leads to better decision-making. Top voices at the Fed are raising the red flag at a time when the Fed’s integrity is under intense scrutiny, with President Trump \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/08/20/640332224/trump-not-thrilled-with-fed-chairman-over-interest-rate-hikes\">routinely blasting the central bank\u003c/a> for raising interest rates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The institution has been a political punching bag before, most notably in recent times for its handling of the financial crisis. The seminal legislation that came out of that era, the Dodd-Frank Act, called for the U.S. Government Accountability Office to examine governance at the Federal Reserve Banks. The GAO’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.gao.gov/assets/590/585807.pdf\">2011 report\u003c/a> found that more diversity would strengthen the Fed’s legitimacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawmakers have taken notice. Last Tuesday, Rep. Joyce Beatty, D-Ohio, \u003ca href=\"https://beatty.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/beatty-rule-introduced-in-house-and-senate\">introduced legislation\u003c/a> aimed at boosting diversity among Federal Reserve Bank presidents. It would require that at least one gender-diverse candidate and racially or ethnically diverse candidate gets interviewed when there’s an opening. Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., has introduced companion legislation in the Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Step one of finding a solution is admitting there’s a problem, says Bayer, and it’s clear that economics has one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.dropbox.com/s/v6q7gfcbv9feef5/Wu_EJMR_paper.pdf?dl=0\"> A thesis\u003c/a> penned by UC Berkeley student Alice Wu helped shine a light on the problem. She used machine learning to analyze posts on an anonymous online jobs forum popular with economics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She came up with a very convincing case that there was a lot of sexism and a lot of homophobia in the postings on this forum,” says Berkeley professor Martha Olney. “Her research simply codified what lots of people could have told you. But the people who could have told you that were women, people of color, and queer students.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once the story was \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/18/upshot/evidence-of-a-toxic-environment-for-women-in-economics.html\">picked up\u003c/a> in \u003cem>The New York Times\u003c/em>, Wu’s paper made the rounds among some of the most prestigious names in the field, and perhaps more significantly, those just starting out in it.

One researcher has said that “trying to \u003ca href=\"https://www.minneapolisfed.org/publications/the-region/interview-with-anne-case\">nail the speaker to the blackboard\u003c/a>” isn’t the goal in other disciplines as it often seems to be in economics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mary Daly is championing the cause of bringing more women into the Fed by stopping leaks earlier in the pipeline. In October, she took over as president of the San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank. That gave her a vote in the most recent Fed policy meetings this fall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like the few other women at the top, Daly routinely offers encouragement through speeches, as she did at a Fed-sponsored \u003ca href=\"https://www.stlouisfed.org/education/women-in-economics/symposium-daly-presentation\">symposium for women in economics\u003c/a> last year in St. Louis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you show up, you are female and bringing that to the table is just as important as bringing your skill set to the table,” Daly told the audience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A labor economist, Daly has looked at \u003ca href=\"https://www.frbsf.org/economic-research/publications/economic-letter/2018/november/why-are-us-workers-not-participating/\">why more women aren’t in the U.S. workforce\u003c/a>.

It’s going to be made of hardened concrete, and it’s going to be made out of rebar and steel. And — you know, it’s so easy, that’s what I do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jan. 18, 2016:\u003c/strong> “They have no idea how to do it. Whereas with me it’s easy — that’s like easy.
