The Heat Belt is a glimpse into a climate-changed America

It was another sweltering day in Phoenix, and Tommy Espinoza, an Arizona native and president and CEO of Raza Development Fund, knew something was different. He was right. While Arizona’s summers have always been hot, August 2020 was the hottest month ever recorded in Phoenix, and the city’s temperatures topped 110 degrees for more than 50 days in 2020. “[T]here are times when they close the airports and ask people not to go out. We have offices downtown, and I’ve crossed the street when the black tar moves beneath you since it’s 119–20 degrees. You cannot ignore this anymore. I was not a big climate change believer but now you’ve got to say, wait a minute, you really cannot ignore this,” Espinoza said.

2021 Governor s Fellow Program Accepting Applications Through February 28, 2021

Gov. John Bel Edwards announced the application process for the 2021 Governor’s Fellows Program in Louisiana Government is now open. This summer program gives college and university students the opportunity to experience the inner workings of state government and gain a deeper understanding of public policy. Each fellow will be assigned to a cabinet-level agency to observe how the governor and agency-heads lead; and how policies are developed, advanced and implemented. Fellows will also participate in a weekly speaker series and take field trips designed to enhance their knowledge of Louisiana government and current affairs. The program is open to all students currently attending a Louisiana higher education institution as well as Louisiana residents enrolled in out-of-state colleges and universities. Fellows will be chosen based on students’ commitment to leadership, public service and good government. Participating students will receive housing on the Baton Rouge campus
