Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Hamas of backtracking on parts of a Gaza ceasefire deal Thursday and said his Cabinet would not meet to give necessary approval to the agreement until the militant group accepts all of the elements.

 

We find no evidence that mayoral partisanship affects police employment or expenditures, police force or leadership demographics, overall crime rates, or numbers of arrests. At the same time, we find some suggestive evidence that mayoral partisanship may modestly affect the racial composition of arrests. Overall, the results from our multimethod analyses indicate that local partisan politics has little causal impact on crime and policing.

Our analysis found more frequent detections of unregulated industrial contaminants in public water systems serving higher proportions of Hispanic and non-Hispanic Black residents. These associations persisted even after taking other factors into account (e.g., SES, proximity to pollution sources). Although some of the associations between race, ethnicity, and unregulated contaminants can be explained by disproportionate siting of industrial facilities, our analysis suggests that other factors contribute to disparities in exposures to unregulated drinking water contaminants. Our analysis indicates that drinking water disparities can be overlooked and underestimated when research narrowly focuses on regulated chemicals in drinking water. Elucidating other vulnerability factors and mechanisms by which demographics influence drinking water can promote actions to implement the SDWA more effectively and equitably.
